Provides access to Raspberry Pi peripherals from Node.js
npm install raspiRaspi.js
==========
Raspi.js provides initialization and base support for the Raspberry Pi. This module, along with Raspi Board and Raspi Peripheral, provide support for various peripherals on the Raspberry Pi. These libraries form the basis for Raspi IO, an IO plugin that adds support for the Raspberry Pi to Johnny-Five.
Check out the following peripheral API modules:
* Raspi GPIO
* Raspi PWM
* Raspi Software PWM
* Raspi I2C
* Raspi LED
* Raspi Serial
If you have a bug report, feature request, or wish to contribute code, please be sure to check out the Raspi IO Contributing Guide.
- Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 1 or newer (sorry Model A users)
- Raspbian Jessie or newer
- Node-RED works, but can be finicky and difficult to debug.
- See https://github.com/nebrius/raspi-io/issues/24 for more info about support for other OSes
- Node 4.0.0 or newer
Detailed instructions for getting a Raspberry Pi ready for NodeBots, including how to install Node.js, can be found in the wiki
Warning: when using this module, it MUST be installed with user-level permissions, but run with root permissions (e.g. sudo node index.js).
Install with npm:
``Shell`
npm install raspi
Note: this project is written in TypeScript and includes type definitions in the package.json file. This means that if you want to use it from TypeScript, you don't need to install a separate @types module.
In TypeScript/ES6:
`TypeScript
import { init } from 'raspi';
import { DigitalInput, DigitalOutput } from 'raspi-gpio';
init(() => {
const input = new DigitalInput('P1-3');
const output = new DigitalOutput('P1-5');
output.write(input.read());
});
`
in JavaScript:
`JavaScript
const raspi = require('raspi');
const gpio = require('raspi-gpio');
raspi.init(() => {
const input = new gpio.DigitalInput('P1-3');
const output = new gpio.DigitalOutput('P1-5');
output.write(input.read());
});
`

The `init`` method initializes the library suite. This method MUST be called before using any peripherals.
_Arguments_:
| Argument | Type | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
| cb | Function | Callback to be called once the board has been initialized. Takes no arguments | |
