libgpiod python ctypes binding
Project description
GPIO NEXT
This is a python ctypes binding for libgpiod.
It's time to switch from the GPIO sysfs interface to gpiod to the linux GPIO character device (gpiod, stands for GPIO device)
Since linux 4.8 the GPIO sysfs interface is deprecated. User space should use the character device instead. This library encapsulates the ioctl calls and data structures behind a straightforward API.

Requirements
- libgpiod1
Install
sudo apt install libgpiod1
pip install gpio-next
Usage
- turn on/off an LED
import time from gpio_next import Output LED = Output(64, default_value=0) for i in range(10): LED.write(i & 1) time.sleep(1)
- detect button events
from gpio_next import Input button = Input(203) for i in range(10): print(button.wait()) print(button.read())
