.SH NAME
pigpiod_if - A C library to interface to the pigpio daemon.
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <pigpiod_if.h>
gcc -Wall -pthread -o prog prog.c -lpigpiod_if -lrt
./prog
.SH DESCRIPTION
.ad l
.nh
.br
.br
THIS LIBRARY IS DEPRECATED. NEW CODE SHOULD BE WRITTEN TO
USE THE MORE VERSATILE pigpiod_if2 LIBRARY.
.br
.br
pigpiod_if is a C library for the Raspberry which allows control
of the GPIO via the socket interface to the pigpio daemon.
.br
.br
.br
.SS Features
.br
.br
o hardware timed PWM on any of GPIO 0-31
.br
.br
o hardware timed servo pulses on any of GPIO 0-31
.br
.br
o callbacks when any of GPIO 0-31 change state
.br
.br
o callbacks at timed intervals
.br
.br
o reading/writing all of the GPIO in a bank as one operation
.br
.br
o individually setting GPIO modes, reading and writing
.br
.br
o notifications when any of GPIO 0-31 change state
.br
.br
o the construction of output waveforms with microsecond timing
.br
.br
o rudimentary permission control over GPIO
.br
.br
o a simple interface to start and stop new threads
.br
.br
o I2C, SPI, and serial link wrappers
.br
.br
o creating and running scripts on the pigpio daemon
.br
.br
.SS GPIO
.br
.br
ALL GPIO are identified by their Broadcom number.
.br
.br
.SS Notes
.br
.br
The PWM and servo pulses are timed using the DMA and PWM/PCM peripherals.
.br
.br
.SS Usage
.br
.br
Include <pigpiod_if.h> in your source files.
.br
.br
Assuming your source is in prog.c use the following command to build
.br
.br
.EX
gcc -Wall -pthread -o prog prog.c -lpigpiod_if -lrt
.br
.EE
.br
.br
to run make sure the pigpio daemon is running
.br
.br
.EX
sudo pigpiod
.br
.br
./prog # sudo is not required to run programs linked to pigpiod_if
.br
.EE
.br
.br
For examples see x_pigpiod_if.c within the pigpio archive file.
.br
.br
.SS Notes
.br
.br
All the functions which return an int return < 0 on error
.br
.br

.br
.br
.EX
seconds: the number of seconds to delay.
.br
.EE
.IP "\fBchar *pigpio_error(int errnum)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Return a text description for an error code.
.br
.br
.EX
errnum: the error code.
.br
.EE
.IP "\fBunsigned pigpiod_if_version(void)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Return the pigpiod_if version.
.IP "\fBpthread_t *start_thread(gpioThreadFunc_t thread_func, void *userdata)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Starts a new thread of execution with thread_func as the main routine.
.br
.br
.EX
thread_func: the main function for the new thread.
.br
userdata: a pointer to an arbitrary argument.
.br
.EE
.br
.br
Returns a pointer to pthread_t if OK, otherwise NULL.
.br
.br
The function is passed the single argument userdata.
.br
.br
The thread can be cancelled by passing the pointer to pthread_t to
\fBstop_thread\fP.
.IP "\fBvoid stop_thread(pthread_t *pth)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Cancels the thread pointed at by pth.
.br
.br
.EX
pth: the thread to be stopped.
.br
.EE
.br
.br
No value is returned.
.br
.br
The thread to be stopped should have been started with \fBstart_thread\fP.
.IP "\fBint pigpio_start(char *addrStr, char *portStr)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Connect to the pigpio daemon. Reserving command and
notification streams.
.br
.br
.EX
addrStr: specifies the host or IP address of the Pi running the
.br
pigpio daemon. It may be NULL in which case localhost
.br
is used unless overridden by the PIGPIO_ADDR environment
.br
variable.
.br
.br
portStr: specifies the port address used by the Pi running the
.br
pigpio daemon. It may be NULL in which case "8888"
.br
is used unless overridden by the PIGPIO_PORT environment
.br
variable.
.br
.EE
.IP "\fBvoid pigpio_stop(void)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Terminates the connection to the pigpio daemon and releases
resources used by the library.
.IP "\fBint set_mode(unsigned gpio, unsigned mode)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Set the GPIO mode.
.br
.br
.EX
gpio: 0-53.

Each GPIO can be independently set to one of 18 different

.br
.br
The selectable frequencies depend upon the sample rate which

.IP "\fBint get_PWM_frequency(unsigned user_gpio)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Get the frequency of PWM being used on the GPIO.
.br
.br
.EX
user_gpio: 0-31.
.br
.EE
.br
.br
For normal PWM the frequency will be that defined for the GPIO by
\fBset_PWM_frequency\fP.
.br
.br
If a hardware clock is active on the GPIO the reported frequency
will be that set by \fBhardware_clock\fP.
.br
.br
If hardware PWM is active on the GPIO the reported frequency
will be that set by \fBhardware_PWM\fP.
.br
.br
Returns the frequency (in hertz) used for the GPIO if OK,
otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO.
.IP "\fBint set_servo_pulsewidth(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned pulsewidth)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Start (500-2500) or stop (0) servo pulses on the GPIO.
.br
.br
.EX
user_gpio: 0-31.
.br
pulsewidth: 0 (off), 500 (anti-clockwise) - 2500 (clockwise).
.br
.EE
.br
.br
Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_BAD_PULSEWIDTH or
PI_NOT_PERMITTED.
.br
.br
The selected pulsewidth will continue to be transmitted until
changed by a subsequent call to set_servo_pulsewidth.
.br
.br
The pulsewidths supported by servos varies and should probably be
determined by experiment. A value of 1500 should always be safe and
represents the mid-point of rotation.
.br
.br
You can DAMAGE a servo if you command it to move beyond its limits.
.br
.br
OTHER UPDATE RATES:
.br
.br
This function updates servos at 50Hz. If you wish to use a different
update frequency you will have to use the PWM functions.
.br
.br
.EX
Update Rate (Hz) 50 100 200 400 500
.br
1E6/Hz 20000 10000 5000 2500 2000
.br
.EE
.br
.br
Firstly set the desired PWM frequency using \fBset_PWM_frequency\fP.
.br
.br
Then set the PWM range using \fBset_PWM_range\fP to 1E6/Hz.
Doing this allows you to use units of microseconds when setting
the servo pulsewidth.
.br
.br
E.g. If you want to update a servo connected to GPIO 25 at 400Hz
.br
.br
.EX
set_PWM_frequency(25, 400);
.br
set_PWM_range(25, 2500);
.br
.EE
.br
.br
Thereafter use the \fBset_PWM_dutycycle\fP function to move the servo,
e.g. set_PWM_dutycycle(25, 1500) will set a 1500 us pulse.
.br
.IP "\fBint get_servo_pulsewidth(unsigned user_gpio)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Return the servo pulsewidth in use on a GPIO.
.br
.br
.EX
user_gpio: 0-31.
.br
.EE
.br
.br
Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO or PI_NOT_SERVO_GPIO.
.IP "\fBint notify_open(void)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Get a free notification handle.
.br
.br
Returns a handle greater than or equal to zero if OK,
otherwise PI_NO_HANDLE.
.br
.br
A notification is a method for being notified of GPIO state
changes via a pipe.
.br
.br
Pipes are only accessible from the local machine so this function
serves no purpose if you are using the library from a remote machine.
The in-built (socket) notifications provided by \fBcallback\fP
should be used instead.
.br
.br
Notifications for handle x will be available at the pipe
named /dev/pigpiox (where x is the handle number).
E.g. if the function returns 15 then the notifications must be
read from /dev/pigpio15.
.IP "\fBint notify_begin(unsigned handle, uint32_t bits)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Start notifications on a previously opened handle.
.br
.br
.EX
handle: 0-31 (as returned by \fBnotify_open\fP)
.br
bits: a mask indicating the GPIO to be notified.
.br
.EE
.br
.br
Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_HANDLE.
.br
.br
The notification sends state changes for each GPIO whose
corresponding bit in bits is set.
.br
.br
Each notification occupies 12 bytes in the fifo as follows:
.br
.br
.EX
typedef struct
.br
{
.br
uint16_t seqno;
.br
uint16_t flags;
.br
uint32_t tick;
.br
uint32_t level;
.br
} gpioReport_t;
.br
.EE
.br
.br
seqno: starts at 0 each time the handle is opened and then increments
by one for each report.
.br
.br
flags: two flags are defined, PI_NTFY_FLAGS_WDOG and PI_NTFY_FLAGS_ALIVE.
.br
.br
PI_NTFY_FLAGS_WDOG, if bit 5 is set then bits 0-4 of the flags
indicate a GPIO which has had a watchdog timeout.
.br
.br
PI_NTFY_FLAGS_ALIVE, if bit 6 is set this indicates a keep alive
signal on the pipe/socket and is sent once a minute in the absence
of other notification activity.
.br
.br
tick: the number of microseconds since system boot. It wraps around
after 1h12m.
.br
.br
level: indicates the level of each GPIO. If bit 1<<x is set then
GPIO x is high.
.IP "\fBint notify_pause(unsigned handle)\fP"
.IP "" 4
Pause notifications on a previously opened handle.
.br
.br
.EX
handle: 0-31 (as returned by \fBnotify_open\fP)
.br
.EE
.br
.br
Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_HANDLE.
