Investigate existing "Remote GPIO" projects #3

I believe that remote GPIO on RPi already is a thing, so investigate what is out there and if could be used, or learned from.

there are lot of python remote gpio libraries available

sundaram123krishnan commented 1 month ago

https://github.com/golemparts/rppal there is also a rust library available for it

andrewdavidmackenzie commented 1 month ago

Yes, I'm using rppal in my old phone project, is pretty easy to use and works well. I will correct the reference in readme. But it's not "remote" in the sense of accessing GPIO from a difference machine

yaa true

I tried remote gpio. It seemed to connect, but I couldn't get the simple python led flash example to change the LED....

Want to try @sundaram123krishnan and let me know if you get it working?

sundaram123krishnan commented 1 week ago

Sure, will try
