Summary

This project is the opposite side of one of these:

• Arduino RGBDriver.
• PIC16F1825 RGBDriver

How to set it up?

Dependencies

• OS: This basic example was tested on Windows and on a Raspberry Pi 2B.
• Python: Testd on Python 3.4 and Python 3.6 and Python 3.8
• PythonPackages: pyserial: python -m pip install pyserial

How to call?

Taken from the example in example.py:

from serial_rgb import RGB, SerialRGB

if __name__ == '__main__':
    arduino = SerialRGB("COM4")
    test_rgb = RGB(255, 255, 0)
    
    arduino.write_rgb(test_rgb)

Known bug

get_amount_rgbs() is unfortunatelly currently not working since when initiatilization of COM-Port some traffic to Arduino occurres. This bug i only necessary for the new Protocol (differnt colors for every LED). If you want to bypass that problem just manually set the amount_rgbs attribute.
