Update README.md
This is an unofficial port of Gordon's WiringPi library. Please do not email Gordon if you have issues, he will not be able to help.

WiringPi: An implementation of most of the Arduino Wiring functions for the Raspberry Pi
WiringPi implements new functions for managing IO expanders.
A quick and dirty build script is supplied to install WiringPi-Python for Python 2 and 3. Just:
sudo apt-get install wiringpi git clone --recursive https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi-Python.git cd WiringPi-Python ./build.sh
git clone --recursive https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi-Python.git cd WiringPi-Python git submodule update --init
To rebuild the bindings you must first have python-dev, python-setuptools and swig installed. Wiring Pi should also be installed system-wide for access to the gpio
tool.
sudo apt-get install python-dev python-setuptools swig wiringpi
cd WiringPi sudo ./build
Return to the root directory of the repository and:
swig2.0 -python wiringpi.i
or
swig3.0 -thread -python wiringpi.i
sudo python setup.py install
Or Python 3:
sudo python3 setup.py install
import wiringpi wiringpi.wiringPiSetup() # For sequential pin numbering, one of these MUST be called before using IO functions # OR wiringpi.wiringPiSetupSys() # For /sys/class/gpio with GPIO pin numbering # OR wiringpi.wiringPiSetupGpio() # For GPIO pin numbering
Setting up IO expanders (This example was tested on a quick2wire board with one digital IO expansion board connected via I2C):
wiringpi.mcp23017Setup(65,0x20) wiringpi.pinMode(65,1) wiringpi.digitalWrite(65,1)
General IO:
wiringpi.pinMode(6,1) # Set pin 6 to 1 ( OUTPUT ) wiringpi.digitalWrite(6,1) # Write 1 ( HIGH ) to pin 6 wiringpi.digitalRead(6) # Read pin 6
Setting up a peripheral: WiringPi2 supports expanding your range of available "pins" by setting up a port expander. The implementation details of your port expander will be handled transparently, and you can write to the additional pins ( starting from PIN_OFFSET >= 64 ) as if they were normal pins on the Pi.
wiringpi.mcp23017Setup(PIN_OFFSET,I2C_ADDR)
Soft Tone
Hook a speaker up to your Pi and generate music with softTone. Also useful for generating frequencies for other uses such as modulating A/C.
wiringpi.softToneCreate(PIN) wiringpi.softToneWrite(PIN,FREQUENCY)
Bit shifting:
wiringpi.shiftOut(1,2,0,123) # Shift out 123 (b1110110, byte 0-255) to data pin 1, clock pin 2
Serial:
serial = wiringpi.serialOpen('/dev/ttyAMA0',9600) # Requires device/baud and returns an ID wiringpi.serialPuts(serial,"hello") wiringpi.serialClose(serial) # Pass in ID
