Framebuf (non-displayio) driver for SSD1305 displays
This driver depends on:
Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>
_Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>
_Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading
the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Bundle>
_.
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-ssd1305/>
_. To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ssd1305
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ssd1305
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-ssd1305
.. code-block:: python
# Basic example of clearing and drawing pixels on a SSD1305 OLED display.
# This example and library is meant to work with Adafruit CircuitPython API.

# Import all board pins.
from board import SCL, SDA
import busio
# Import the SSD1305 module.
import adafruit_ssd1305
# Create the I2C interface.
i2c = busio.I2C(SCL, SDA)
# Create the SSD1305 OLED class.
# The first two parameters are the pixel width and pixel height. Change these
# to the right size for your display!
display = adafruit_ssd1305.SSD1305_I2C(128, 32, i2c)
# Alternatively you can change the I2C address of the device with an addr parameter:
#display = adafruit_ssd1305.SSD1305_I2C(128, 32, i2c, addr=0x31)
# Clear the display. Always call show after changing pixels to make the display
# update visible!
display.fill(0)
display.show()
