Work with intervals and deadlines in milliseconds
This driver depends on:
Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>
_Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading
the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://circuitpython.org/libraries>
_
or individual libraries can be installed using
circup <https://github.com/adafruit/circup>
_.
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-ticks/>
_.
To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ticks
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ticks
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ticks
Make sure that you have circup
installed in your Python environment.
Install it with the following command if necessary:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install circup
With circup
installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the
following command to install:
.. code-block:: shell
circup install adafruit_ticks
Or the following command to update an existing version:
.. code-block:: shell
circup update
.. code-block:: python
from adafruit_ticks import ticks_ms, ticks_add, ticks_less
# Wait for 100ms to pass
deadline = ticks_add(ticks_ms(), 100)
while ticks_less(ticks_ms(), deadline):
pass
