rf24-py 0.4.1

A python package binding the nRF24/rf24-rs rust project.

rf24-py

The python binding for the rf24-rs project (written in rust).

This package is only functional on Linux machines. Although, installing this package in non-Linux environments will provide the typing information used on Linux.

See the docs for more detail about the API.

Install

To install from pypi.org:

pip install rf24-py

To build from source, the rf24-rs project uses uv to manage dependencies:

uv sync

Append --no-dev for environments with limited disk space (eg. Raspberry Pi machine).

Examples

The examples are located in the repository's root path "examples/python". To run the examples, simply pass the example file's path to the python interpreter:

uv run examples/python/getting_started.py

Again, the --no-dev argument can be applied to the uv run command for environments with limited disk space.

The examples/python/irq_config.py script requires the gpiod package. The uv run command needs to be amended to include this dependency:

uv run --with gpiod examples/python/irq_config.py
