Module urest.examples.led_control

An example of a small application which control a single GPIO pin.

Overview

This examples export a single noun, led, which is used to set, test and otherwise control a single GPIO pin. It can be used an example of a the way in which this API class can be used, along with the definition of the SimpleLED class.

To use this example, the variables SSID and PASSWORD must also be defined, and set to suitable values for the local network. Space for these variables has been provided at the start of the 'main' loop. The code will then attempt to create an API server on the network side of the machines local interfaces, bound to port 80.

Note: MicroPython Includes

This module as presented has a number of try..finally blocks which exist to catch uses of this code where the standard MicroPython libraries are not available. If known to be running under MicroPython, or suitably adapted, these can be removed.

Warning: Exposed Network Ports

This code does not attempt to take any defensive stances with respect to the network environment, beyond the normal measures in the API code. As is normal for MicroPython implementations, it also assumes the SSID and the network password are embedded in the code, and therefore exposed. Careful review of the application code, and the network environment, should be undertaken before this code is used in anything other than a benign environment under total control of the developer.

Tested Implementations

This version is written for MicroPython 3.4, and has been tested on:

  • Raspberry Pi Pico W

An example of a small application which control a single GPIO pin.

Overview
--------

This examples export a single noun, `led`, which is used to set, test and otherwise control a single GPIO pin. It can be used an example of a the way in which this API class can be used, along with the definition of the  `urest.examples.simpleled.SimpleLED` class.

To use this example, the variables `SSID` and `PASSWORD` must also be defined, and set to suitable values for the local network. Space for these variables has been provided at the start of the '`main`' loop. The code will then attempt to create an API server on the _network_ side of the machines local interfaces, bound to port 80.
