js_gpio

GPIO module

let eventLoop = require("event_loop");
let gpio = require("gpio");

This module depends on the event_loop module, so it must only be imported after event_loop is imported.

Example

let eventLoop = require("event_loop");
let gpio = require("gpio");
 
let led = gpio.get("pc3");
led.init({ direction: "out", outMode: "push_pull" });
 
led.write(true);
delay(1000);
led.write(false);
delay(1000);

API reference

get

Gets a Pin object that can be used to manage a pin.

Parameters

• pin: pin identifier (examples: "pc3", 7, "pa6", 3)

Returns

A Pin object

Pin object

Pin.init()

Configures a pin

Parameters

• mode: Mode object:
  • direction (required): either "in" or "out"
  • outMode (required for direction: "out"): either "open_drain" or "push_pull"
  • inMode (required for direction: "in"): either "analog", "plain_digital", "interrupt" or "event"
  • edge (required for inMode: "interrupt" or "event"): either "rising", "falling" or "both"
  • pull (optional): either "up", "down" or unset

Pin.write()

Writes a digital value to a pin configured with direction: "out"

Parameters

• value: boolean logic level to write

Pin.read()

Reads a digital value from a pin configured with direction: "in" and any inMode except "analog"

Returns

Boolean logic level

Pin.read_analog()

Reads an analog voltage level in millivolts from a pin configured with direction: "in" and inMode: "analog"

Returns

Voltage on pin in millivolts

Pin.interrupt()

Attaches an interrupt to a pin configured with direction: "in" and inMode: "interrupt" or "event"

Returns

An event loop Contract object that identifies the interrupt event source. The event does not produce any extra data.
