I am using Orange Pi on my project , and I searched for how to control its pin via python and i FOUND some results which suggest to install Wiring Pi .I installed WiringPi from https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi and also with pip but in both cases It doesn't work . I get this warning while I tried to use WiringPi: Unable to determine hardware version. I see: Hardware : sun8i '- expecting BCM2708 or BCM2709. If this is a genuino Raspberry pi then please report this to projects@drogon.net. If this not Raspberry Pi then you are on your own as WiringPi is designed to support the Raspberry PI ONLY.

  • The error really says it all: the Orange Pi isn't a Raspberry Pi, and WiringPi is only meant to be used on the latter platform. There _is_ a port to Orange Pi, called [WiringOP](http://www.orangepi.org/Docs/WiringPi.html). – robertklep Oct 01 '16 at 12:10
  • Thanks for your effort, but the url that site suggested is blank when I tried to enter there is an error 404 – t_ashrefov Oct 03 '16 at 09:04
  • Can't say I've tried it myself, although I have an Orange Pi myself I kinda gave up on getting it to work with all the GPIO stuff that's meant for RaspPi's – robertklep Oct 03 '16 at 09:12

You can find an Orange Pi Wiring Pi version through the orangepi official webpage: http://www.orangepi.org/Docs/WiringPi.html

  1. download and extract this OPI-compatible python wrapper (eg. to /tmp/WiringPi-Python-OP-master)
  2. download the WiringPI C library and extract it inside the WiringPi subdir (eg. to /tmp/WiringPi-Python-OP-master/WiringPi)
  3. cd /tmp/WiringPi-Python-OP-master; python setup.py install

I just tested this on my OrangePI-PC and works pretty well.

(original instructions here, also check if you miss any dependency).

you should use the pyH3 library. you can download this from : https://github.com/duxingkei33/orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH3 and then install this package 

sudo apt-get install python-dev

extract the (phyh3) folder and place in '/home/pi' and 

cd orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH3

and run python setup.py install

The library is now installed.

you can use test code in the folder examples https://github.com/duxingkei33/orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH3/tree/master/examples
