Main menu for pybricks
Project description
pybricks menu
Main menu for pybricks, by Joey Parrish, 2025
The pybricks firmware doesn't come with a menu or support for multiple programs like the default Spike firmware. This is a simple menu system and basic startup checks to make it easier for kids to get started coding missions.
The startup checks ensure they don't start runs while plugged in, and show battery status while charging. If the battery level is too low on startup, a warning animation will be shown. Please charge to avoid inaccuracies caused by low torque.
Sample usage
from pybricks.hubs import PrimeHub
from pybricks.parameters import Direction, Port
from pybricks.pupdevices import Motor
from pybricks.robotics import DriveBase
from pybricksmenu import main_menu, startup_checks
hub = PrimeHub()
left_motor = Motor(Port.A, Direction.COUNTERCLOCKWISE)
right_motor = Motor(Port.B, Direction.CLOCKWISE)
wheel_diameter = 175
wheel_separation = 200
drive = DriveBase(left_motor, right_motor, wheel_diameter, wheel_separation)
run = 1
def run1(drive: DriveBase) -> None:
drive.straight(1000)
def run2(drive: DriveBase) -> None:
drive.turn(720)
startup_checks(hub)
while True:
run = main_menu(hub, num_items=9, item=run)
if run == 1:
run1(drive)
elif run == 2:
run2(drive)
