controllables.LED

class controllables.LED(port: Optional[int] = None)

Reference to the LED part.

The follow code block assumes that an LED is assigned to port 0.

from controllables import LED
from color import Color
from time import time
from math import sin, tau, pow

led = LED(0)

#how long each pulse will last
pulse_length = 1
#the higher the punchiness the quicker the light flashes
punchiness = 4
while True:
    #sample a sin wave with period pulse_length
    intensity = sin(time() * tau / pulse_length)

    #put it between 0 and 1
    intensity = (1 + intensity) / 2.

    #raise intensity to a power to sharpen the curve
    intensity = pow(intensity,punchiness)

    led.color = Color(red=intensity, green=0, blue=0)

turn_on(power: float = 1)

Turns the LED on. power should be assigned to a float between 0 to 1 representing the brightness of the LED.

from controllables import LED
import time

led = LED(0)

led.turn_on()

time.sleep(1)

led.turn_off()

turn_off()

Turns the LED off.

Note

This doesn’t prevent transmitters or properties from turning the LED on.

from controllables import LED
import time

led = LED(0)

led.turn_on()

time.sleep(1)

led.turn_off()

property color: color.Color

The color of the LED.

from controllables import LED
from time import sleep
from color import Color

led = LED(0)

#assign color with a preset color name
led.color = "red"
led.turn_on()
sleep(2)

led.turn_off()
sleep(1)

#assign color with Color object
led.color = Color(0,1,0)
led.turn_on()
sleep(2)

led.turn_off()
sleep(1)

#assign color with hexcode string
led.color = "#0000ff"
led.turn_on()

power() → float

The power being sent to the LED from 0 to 1.

name() → str

Returns the user editable name of the controllable as found in the properties tab of the game.

from ports import PortReference

print(PortReference(0).name())
