compatibility with Circuitpython? #33

Closed stanelie closed 1 day ago

stanelie commented 3 weeks ago

Hello.

For various reasons, I have to work with Circuitpython instead of Micropython (some ESPNow shenanigans). However, this library, as it is, does not work. Various import statements fail.

For example, import _thread fails as there is no thread library/module in circuitpython.

Is there a way around this?

Thanks!

Hi @stanelie, the library was made initially for a series of workshops on creative coding, ie: the objective was to explain how datagrams are built and the code tries to be as explicit as possible.

The first hit on a google search is this thread from circuitpython, accompanied by a suggestion alternative https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/issues/1124

I personally do not have intention of modifying the code here to be compatible, I suggest that you could create a fork and make the changes there. The Art-net specific part should be sufficiently well explained here

I am sorry if this is not the answer you hoped for

Thanks for the follow up, no worries.

Cheers!
