RPi.GPIO_BP README

This is a modified version RPi.GPIO for Banana Pro/Pi. We call it RPi.GPIO_BP. It is based on the original RPi.GPIO. The modification is done by LeMaker. The RPi.GPIO_BP API usage are the same to the original RPi.GPIO. You can donwload the RPi.GPIO_BP from: https://github.com/LeMaker/RPi.GPIO_BP.

Update 2017-01 bananapi branch is adapted to work with mainline kernel (4.8+)

Download

For Banana Pro

git clone https://github.com/hcoohb/RPi.GPIO_BP -b bananapro

For Banana Pi

git clone https://github.com/hcoohb/RPi.GPIO_BP -b bananapi

Installation

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-dev
cd /RPi.GPIO_BP
python setup.py install                 
sudo python setup.py install

Please be attention that you need use both python and sudo pytohn to make the RPi.GPIO_BP work well.

Examples

You can go to LeMaker wiki to see the basic examples: http://wiki.lemaker.org/RPi.GPIO

And the source directory test also has many demo.

Extra

This version supports a new addressing mode "RAW" which enables you to use any GPIO pin. Below is an example which sets PD10 (which is pin 29 on the LCD connector) to a high level.

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.RAW)
GPIO.setup(GPIO.PD+10, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.output(GPIO.PD+10, 1)

Thanks!
