NAME RPi::WiringPi - Perl interface to Raspberry Pi's board/GPIO pin functionality SYNOPSIS use RPi::WiringPi; use constant { INPUT => 0, OUTPUT => 1, ON => 1, OFF => 0, }; my $pi = RPi::WiringPi->new; my $gpio_pin_1 = $pi->pin(1); my $gpio_pin_2 = $pi->pin(2); $gpio_pin_1->mode(INPUT); $gpio_pin_2->mode(OUTPUT) my $is_hot = $gpio_pin_1->read; if ($is_hot){ $gpio_pin_2->write(ON); } $pi->cleanup; DESCRIPTION This is the root module for the `RPi::WiringPi' system. It interfaces to a Raspberry Pi board, its accessories and its GPIO pins via the wiringPi library through the Perl wrapper RPi::WiringPi::Core module. Although this module contains no XS code, the `RPi::WiringPi::Core' module which other modules in this distribution relies on does. wiringPi must be installed prior to installing/using this module. PUBLIC METHODS new() Returns a new `RPi::WiringPi' object. pin($pin_num) Returns a RPi::WiringPi::Pin object, mapped to a specified GPIO pin. Parameters: $pin_num Mandatory: The `wiringPi' representation of the GPIO pin number. cleanup() Resets all registered pins back to default settings (off). It's important that this method be called in each application. HELPER METHODS These methods aren't normally needed by end-users. They're available for those who want to write their own libraries. registered_pins() Returns an array of RPi::WiringPi::Pin objects that are currently registered, and deemed to be in use. register_pin($pin_obj) Registers a GPIO pin within the system for error checking, and proper resetting of the pins in use when required. Parameters: $pin_obj Mandatory: An object instance of RPi::WiringPi::Pin class. unregister_pin($pin_obj) Exactly the opposite of `register_pin()'. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES There are certain environment variables available to aid in testing on non-Raspberry Pi boards. NO_BOARD Set to true, will bypass the `wiringPi' board checks. False will re-enable them.
