monome 0.1.0

Synchronous I/O for monome devices

monomeui

A Python package for interfacing with the monome Grid and Arc controllers. This library uses classic synchronous I/O, providing an alternative to the pymonome async library.

Two levels of interface are provided:

• Grid and Arc provide low-level APIs directly to the SerialOSC commands, to modify the visual state and capture button presses and ring rotation events
• GridUI and ArcUI encapsulate different high-level user interface paradigms, including unipolar/bipolar value displays. These interfaces support page-based rendering which can maintain and return states for different pages.

# Example: Arc UI
arcui = ArcUI()
page = arcui.add_page("unipolar")

@page.handler
def handler(ring, level, delta):
  print("Ring %d set to level %d" % (ring, level))

Requirements

• A Monome Grid (tested with a 2021-edition 128, but should work with any generation) or Arc (tested with a 4-ring v2)
• A computer running the serialosc server (tested on macOS Ventura)
• Python 3.9 or above

Usage

Connect your monome device via USB. To test that the library works:

# run a test sequence on a grid, responding to button presses
python3 -m monome.grid.grid 

# run a test sequence on an arc, responding to ring rotations
python3 -m monome.arc.arc
