rpi-led-matrix

Safe rust bindings on top of the C++ library rpi-rgb-led-matrix.

Usage

The examples have more detailed usage, but here is basic usage to get things rendering on your display.

use rpi_led_matrix::{LedMatrix, LedColor};

let matrix = LedMatrix::new(None, None).unwrap();
let mut canvas = matrix.offscreen_canvas();
for red in 0..255 {
    for green in 0..255 {
        for blue in 0..255 {
            canvas.fill(&LedColor { red, green, blue });
            canvas = matrix.swap(canvas);
        }
    }
}

Note that if you have wirings other than the libraries "default", you will need to construct arguments to the library to specify the layout. See LedMatrixOptions for more information.

Rust bindings for the C++ library rpi-rgb-led-matrix.

Example Usage

use rpi_led_matrix::{LedMatrix, LedColor};
let matrix = LedMatrix::new(None, None).unwrap();
let mut canvas = matrix.offscreen_canvas();
for red in (0..255).step_by(16) {
    for green in (0..255).step_by(16) {
        for blue in (0..255).step_by(16) {
            canvas.fill(&LedColor { red, green, blue });
            canvas = matrix.swap(canvas);
        }
    }
}

Features

embeddedgraphics (default)

pulls in the embedded-graphics crate and implements DrawTarget so that you can use all of the embedded-graphics abstractions.

args

Pulls in clap, enabling the args module which adds LED matrix arguments for configuration to your clap::App.

c-stubs

Passthrough argument to rpi-led-matrix-sys. See their documentation for more info.

stdcpp-static-link

Passthrough argument to rpi-led-matrix-sys. See their documentation for more info.
