Talk to a socketio server

Smartphone Connector

This simple package exposes methods to interact with smartphones connected to a socket.io server instance.

Examples

All examples and scripts on GitHub

Draw 3x3 checker board

from smartphone_connector import Connector
phone = Connector('https://io.lebalz.ch', 'FooBar')

# draw a 3x3 checker board
phone.set_grid([
    ['black','white','black'],
    ['white','black','white'],
    ['black','white','black']
], broadcast=True)

# print the letter A
phone.set_grid([
  [9,9,9,9],
  [9,0,0,9],
  [9,9,9,9],
  [9,0,0,9],
  [9,0,0,9],
])

results on all devices in the following screen.

When broadcast is set to False (default), only the FooBar devices display the checker board.

Stream & display gyroscope data

from smartphone_connector import Connector, GyroMsg
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
phone = Connector('https://io.lebalz.ch', 'FooBar')
MAX_SAMPLES = 300

y = []
x = []
plt.show()


def on_gyro(data: GyroMsg):
    if len(x) > MAX_SAMPLES:
        x.pop(0)
        y.pop(0)

    x.append(data.time_stamp)
    y.append([data.alpha, data.beta, data.gamma])


def on_intervall():
    plt.clf()
    plt.plot(x, y)
    plt.pause(0.01)


phone.on_gyro = on_gyro
phone.subscribe(on_intervall, interval=0)

Displays gyroscope data from the smartphone on a Matplotlib-Plot.

Changelog

• 0.0.115: fix audio path checking
• 0.0.113: fix reporting of pos_x and pos_y on collisions
• 0.0.111: support timer events from socketio_server
• 0.0.110: add method report(value: int | float, report_type: str, to: '__GAME_RUNNER__')
• 0.0.109: fix typo in update_ellipse
• 0.0.108: introduce clean_playground method to remove all sprites and lines from the current playground, but keep the playground config as is. And minor bug fixes.
• 0.0.107: can mix absolute and relative movements with apply_movements and apply_movement
• 0.0.106: add possibility to control movement distances
• 0.0.105: control repeats of movement sequences
• 0.0.104: add methods to apply movements to objects:

  # single movement
  device.apply_movement(id='circle', direction=[1, 1], time_span=1, speed=3)
  # movement sequence
  with device.apply_movements(id='circle') as movement:
      movement(direction=[1, 0], time_span=1, speed=2)
      movement(direction=[-1, 0], time_span=1, speed=2)
  

  • adding example playground_flappy.py
• 0.0.103: change function annotation of set_timeout(callback, time, repeat=1) instead of set_timeout(callback, interval, iteration_count=inf)
• 0.0.102: add alias methods for subscribe_async: set_timeout, schedule, execute_in
• 0.0.101: introduce move_to(id: str, pos: [x, y], via: [x, y]) method to make jumps easyier. Event auto_movement_pos is triggered when an auto movement within a sequence finished.
