A module to parse the NEC IR remote control protocol in Python

IRReceiver

A module to parse the NEC IR remote control protocol in Python

Description

This is a fully tested module that creates a parser for the NEC IR remote control protocol.

The NEC protocol is used by many remotes, you can read about it here.

NOTE: There is an example of this sketch that is made for the Raspberry PI. If you use this library with a Raspberry Pi it is advised to use pigpio as the GPIO library. Even then, the Raspberry Pi does not have a real time operating system which is needed for better reliability

Dependencies

• This project has no external dependencies but the example code does depend on being run on a Raspberry Pi.
• All code follows PEP 8 and is run through YAPF before it is committed

Tested On

• A Raspberry Pi (first generation)
• A Yamaha MRX-90M remote

To Install

• pip install irreceiver

To Use

• An example file can be found in the examples directory.
• Here is a basic example of decoding an list of IR timing pulses:

from irreceiver import NecDecoder
decoder = NecDecoder()
# Create PULSES, a list of IR pulse timings
message = decoder.decode(PULSES)

Project Structure

Directory structure should be clear. All code is in the irreceiver directory.
