Introduction

If you need to control a series of led activities/patterns in a non-blocking fashion then this library is for you.

Features

Non-blocking
Fluent API Interface
Define a chain of led activity configurations that you can assign, reuse and playback for any led instance.
More flexibility in controlling the light patterns for complex activities

Installation

Arduino

Browse to the arduino library/sketchbook location
Navigate to the libraries folder
Clone the repository into the libraries folder

git clone https://github.com/ribasco/Led-Flow.git
Restart the Arduino IDE (If open)
In your sketch, include the library by typing

#include <LedFlow.h>

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:

}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

}

or simply via the Arduino Menu

Sketch -> Include Library -> Led Flow

Usage

Basic Usage

Please note that using the setValue* methods are the same as calling analogWrite(value).

Turning on/off a Standard LED

#include <LedFlow.h>

#define PIN_LED           6

LedSingle ledSingle = LedSingle(PIN_LED); 

void setup() {
        //Turn On: Set to the maximum brightness (255)
	ledSingle.setValue(255);
	
	//Turn off
	//ledSingle.setValue(0);
}

void loop() {
}

Turning on/off an RGB LED

#include <LedFlow.h>

#define PIN_LED_R 	2
#define PIN_LED_G 	3
#define PIN_LED_B 	4

LedRgb ledRgb = LedRgb(PIN_LED_R, PIN_LED_G, PIN_LED_B); 

void setup() {
        //Set the value of all pins
	ledRgb.setValue(RGB(255, 0, 0));
	 
	//The following code below individually sets the color value of each RGB Pin. 
	// Using this method will not override the values of the other pins. 
	//ledRgb.setValueRed(0);
	//ledRgb.setValueGreen(255);
	//ledRgb.setValueBlue(255);
}

void loop() {


}
