Interest in a Julia Port? #47

Open kellertuer opened 5 years ago

kellertuer commented 5 years ago

I programmed a few things for my LEDs with OPC (and fadecandy). These days I prefer Julia and started a few lines to port the python Code to Julia (especially typed).

Is there any interest in getting this code also into OPC? I am currently thinking about maybe doing an OpenPixelControl.jl for Julia.

Please feel welcome! That would be a nice contribution.

Cool. I got my first functions running emulating the OPC protocol and will pack that into a Julia package soon, then (after checking that I also provide all funtions, the Julia package provides, too).

I started the package here https://github.com/kellertuer/OpenPixelControl.jl and already applied for it to be added to the general Julia registry (actually I used this small package, to learn how to do that). I will provide small examples, in Julia, soon, then.

Since your repository covers both c and python code – how shall we integrate the Julia package into this one? Adding the Repository as a submodule would be a way to go – though with the general registry just add OpenPixelControl in Julia REPL will add the package (soon)...
