RobotPy bindings for CTRE third party libraries
Project description
robotpy-ctre
This is a python wrapper around the CTRE 3rd party library. Documentation can be found at http://robotpy-ctre.readthedocs.io/
NOTE: The RobotPy project is not associated with or endorsed by Cross The Road Electronics.
Setup (simulator)
pip3 install robotpy-ctre
Setup (RoboRIO)
You really don’t want to compile this yourself, so don’t download this from pypi and install it. Instead, you can download a pre-packaged version from our opkg repository. Use the RobotPy installation script (comes with the RobotPy download), and run the following on your computer while connected to the internet:
py -3 installer.py download-opkg python36-robotpy-ctre
Then, when connected to the roborio’s network, run:
py -3 installer.py install-opkg python36-robotpy-ctre
For more information about installing packages, see https://github.com/robotpy/roborio-packages
Compilation
Currently, compilation is only supported on the RoboRIO or the RoboRIO VM. Use opkg to install g++ et al, install libstdc++-dev, and then run:
pip3 install pybind11 wheel pip3 wheel .
Be warned that it takes a very long time to compile, and that if you’re using a real RoboRIO that you will need a swap device installed.
License
RobotPy specific bits are available under the Apache 2.0 license. The CTRE binaries are available under their custom license which basically says “you may only use this software with our hardware”. See LICENSE for details.
