Cylon.js For RollingSpider

Cylon.js (http://cylonjs.com) is a JavaScript framework for robotics and physical computing using Node.js

This repository contains the Cylon adaptor/driver for the Parrot Rolling Spider.

The implementation uses the node-rolling-spider node module from @FluffyJack. Thank you!

How to Install

Install the module with:

$ npm install cylon-rolling-spider

How to Use

var Cylon = require('cylon');

Cylon.robot({

	connections: {
		'rolling-spider': { adaptor: 'rolling-spider' },
	},

	devices: {
    	drone: { driver: 'rolling-spider' },
	},

	work: function (my) {
  
		my.drone.wheelOn();
  
  		my.drone.flatTrim();
  
  		my.drone.takeOff();
  
  		after(2500, function () {
  
  			my.drone.land();
  
  			after(1500, function () {
  
				Cylon.halt();
  
			});
  
		});
  
	}
  	
}).start();

How to Connect

• Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality & lint and test your code using make test and make lint.
• All pull requests should be "fast forward"
  • If there are commits after yours use “git rebase -i <new_head_branch>”
  • If you have local changes you may need to use “git stash”
  • For git help see progit which is an awesome (and free) book on git
