CircuitPython helper library for the LIS3MDL 3-axis magnetometer
Dependencies
=============
This driver depends on:
* `Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>`_
* `Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>`_
* `Register <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Register>`_
Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading
`the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://circuitpython.org/libraries>`_.
Installing from PyPI
=====================
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from
PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-lis3mdl/>`_. To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-lis3mdl
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-lis3mdl
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-lis3mdl
Usage Example
=============
.. code-block:: python3
import time
import board
import adafruit_lis3mdl
i2c = board.I2C() # uses board.SCL and board.SDA
sensor = adafruit_lis3mdl.LIS3MDL(i2c)
while True:
mag_x, mag_y, mag_z = sensor.magnetic
print('X:{0:10.2f}, Y:{1:10.2f}, Z:{2:10.2f} uT'.format(mag_x, mag_y, mag_z))
print('')
time.sleep(1.0)
Documentation
=============
API documentation for this library can be found on `Read the Docs <https://docs.circuitpython.org/projects/lis3mdl/en/latest/>`_.
