Total Newbie here! At first: I made a python script for a simple PID controller with a SPI sensor board and I2C Display. It runs on a Raspberry Pi and controls a small furnace. Since the raspberry (in my case) is pretty prone to freeze or do unexpected things, I want to move all this to a microcontroller. Things I already did:
- I bought a seeduino xiao a while ago and installed circuitpython on it as stated here: https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Seeeduino-XIAO-CircuitPython/
- I tried a simple script for blinking the onboard LED
- I installed the Adafruit library for my sensor by putting the *.mpy into the /lib folder
What needs to follow next:
- Install the PID-controller library (https://pypi.org/project/simple-pid/) and the I2C display library (https://github.com/winneymj/CircuitPython_SH1106)
My problem is finding a way to download these libraries and make them useable for my script. I assume that I somehow need to make .mpy files first and then copy them into the /lib folder, too. How can I do this? Or do I even have to do this?
