Dependencies¶
This driver depends on:
Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.
Installing from PyPI¶
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-lsm303dlh_mag
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-lsm303dlh_mag
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-lsm303dlh_mag
Usage Example¶
import time
import board
import adafruit_lsm303dlh_mag
i2c = board.I2C() # uses board.SCL and board.SDA
sensor = adafruit_lsm303dlh_mag.LSM303DLH_Mag(i2c)
while True:
mag_x, mag_y, mag_z = sensor.magnetic
print('Magnetometer (gauss): ({0:10.3f}, {1:10.3f}, {2:10.3f})'.format(mag_x, mag_y, mag_z))
print('')
time.sleep(1.0)
