# Architecture
To operate grove sensors, the grove.py depends many hardware interface libraries such as mraa/upm/smbus2.

# Installation
For beginner or library user only, please install with online method.<br>
For developer or advanced user, please install [dependencies](doc/INSTALL.md#install-dependencies)
and then install grove.py with [source code](#install-grovepy).

### Online install

```

<br><br>
## Usage
Basic GPIO Input & Output demo
```python
import time
from grove.gpio import GPIO

led = GPIO(12, GPIO.OUT)
button = GPIO(22, GPIO.IN)

while True:
    if button.read():
        led.write(1)
    else:
        led.write(0)
    time.sleep(0.1)
```

## Contribution
Check list for adding a new grove device, for simple, take [grove_led](grove/grove_led.py) as a example.
- Add a Class in the python source file, and export with `__all__ =`
- Code sytle [PEP8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008) is recommanded
- The python source could run directly with `python <file>` and `python3 <file>`
- Add demo code at the near top of source file
- The demo code could run directly with someone python/python3 IDE.
- Add document to class and it's member and show the result by refering to [API document](#api-documentation)
- Add a command item in setup.py `console_scripts` list, take effect by [install again](#install-grovepy)
- Add a item to command table in [Usage Doc](doc/README.md)
- If the command need argument but not specified, please list available arguments.
- If specified invalid argument, also output usage document then exit.
