How to run example scripts

If you cloned the repository or downloaded the source code to try the example scripts, you will need to make sure you have MartyPy installed before you can run the examples.

The easiest way to install MartyPy is with the pip install martypy script as explained in step 2 here.

Once martypy is installed you can run each example using python. The following (for the dance example) assumes you have connected your marty using the USB cable to a Windows computer

python example_dance.py USB

To run the sound example over WiFi when your Marty is connected on IP address 192.168.86.10, use:

python example_sound.py WiFi 192.168.0.10

If you would like to make modifications to the martypy library itself, it will be better to install it from source using the command pip install --editable /path/to/martypy/repo (replacing /path/to/martypy/repo as appropriate of course).

If you do not want to "pip install" the MartyPy library, you can add the following 4 lines at the top (before any other code) of each script you want to run:

import sys
import pathlib
cur_path = pathlib.Path(__file__).parent.resolve()
sys.path.append(str(cur_path.parent.resolve()))
