simple-pid 0.1.2

A simple, easy to use PID controller

simple-pid

A simple and easy to use PID controller in Python. If you want a PID controller without external dependencies that just works, this is for you! The PID was designed to be robust with help from Brett Beauregards guide.

Usage is very simple:

from simple_pid import PID
pid = PID(1, 0.1, 0.05, setpoint=1)

# assume we have a system we want to control in controlled_system
v = controlled_system.update(0)

while True:
    # compute new ouput from the PID according to the systems current value
    control = pid(v)

    # feed the PID output to the system and get its current value
    v = controlled_system.update(control)
