Draw a traditional 12-hour analog clock face with hour and minute hands. Allows you to provide graphics to customize the clock.

Dependencies

This library depends on:

• Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>_
• Adafruit Display Text <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_display_text>_
• Adafruit ImageLoad <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_ImageLoad/>_
• Adafruit Anchored TileGrid <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Anchored_TileGrid>_

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>_ or individual libraries can be installed using circup <https://github.com/adafruit/circup>_.

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-display-analogclock/>_. To install for current user:

.. code-block:: shell

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-display-analogclock

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

.. code-block:: shell

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-display-analogclock

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

.. code-block:: shell

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-display-analogclock

Installing to a Connected CircuitPython Device with Circup

Make sure that you have circup installed in your Python environment. Install it with the following command if necessary:

.. code-block:: shell

pip3 install circup

With circup installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the following command to install:

.. code-block:: shell

circup install adafruit_display_analogclock

Or the following command to update an existing version:

.. code-block:: shell

circup update

Usage Example

.. code-block:: python

import board

from adafruit_display_analogclock import AnalogClock

display = board.DISPLAY

plain_clockface = AnalogClock(
    "green_hour_hand.bmp",
    "green_minute_hand.bmp",
    (120, 120),
    106,
    number_label_scale=2,
    number_label_color=0x00FF00,
)

display.root_group = plain_clockface

plain_clockface.set_time(3, 30)

while True:
    pass
