Is there something I can just drop onto a raspberry pi zero? #30

Closed cinderblockgames closed 2 months ago

I'm using a Keybow MINI on a raspberry pi zero w, which has a very stripped-down OS and is difficult to connect to. You add files to it by just dropping them onto the sd card. I want to add a passive buzzer, and this looks promising. What's the best way to get something I can just drop onto the sd card and use from lua?

It'll probably be easiest to build it directly on the Pi. But, if lua is already installed on the Pi OS and you have a cross-compiler on your host computer, you could cross-compile ( https://github.com/vsergeev/lua-periphery?tab=readme-ov-file#cross-compiling-from-source ) lua-periphery and drop the periphery.so onto the SD Card. That should be enough to load it and use it.
