C language library? #185

Open uchuugaka opened 6 years ago

uchuugaka commented 6 years ago

Where can we find C or other compiled language library for the PaPiRus products? I need to do things not in Python sometimes...

The low level driver is just a file interface (FUSE based) writing/reading to various files under /dev/epd. See https://github.com/PiSupply/PaPiRus/blob/master/bin/papirus-setup for how this is installed. The driver itself can be found in https://github.com/repaper/gratis.

Have a look at some of the python scripts to see how this interface is used. For example clearing the display is done by writing the character 'C' to /dev/epd/command Using it from C/C++ should be no problem.

Awesome! Thanks so much for the insights. I will dig into these.
