A helper library/base class for creating Johnny-Five IO Plugins
npm install j5-io


J5 IO is a Firmata API compatible abstract library for creating Johnny-Five IO plugins. The API docs for this module can be found on the Johnny-Five Wiki, except for the constructor which is documented below.
If you have a bug report, feature request, or wish to contribute code, please be sure to check out the Raspi IO Contributing Guide.
Install with npm:
``Shell`
npm install j5-io
Using J5 IO to create a Johnny-Five IO plugin should look something like this:
`JavaScript
import { J5IO } from 'j5-io';
import { getPins } from 'raspi-board';
export function RaspiIO() {
// Create the platform options
const platform = {
base: require('raspi'),
gpio: require('raspi-gpio'),
pwm: require('raspi-soft-pwm')
};
return new J5IO({
pluginName: 'Raspi IO',
pinInfo: getPins(),
platform
});
}
``
For a complete example, take a look at Raspi IO which is based on this module.
