This is easily achieved by downloading
`the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Bundle>`_.

Usage Example
=============

See examples/tlc59711_simpletest.py for a demo of the usage.

Contributing
============

Contributions are welcome! Please read our `Code of Conduct
<https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_TLC59711/blob/master/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md>`_
before contributing to help this project stay welcoming.

Building locally
================

To build this library locally you'll need to install the
`circuitpython-build-tools <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython-build-tools>`_ package.

.. code-block:: shell
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip install circuitpython-build-tools
Installing from PyPI
====================

Once installed, make sure you are in the virtual environment:
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from
PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-tlc59711/>`_. To install for current user:

.. code-block:: shell
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tlc59711
Then run the build:
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

.. code-block:: shell
circuitpython-build-bundles --filename_prefix adafruit-circuitpython-tlc59711 --library_location .
Sphinx documentation
-----------------------
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tlc59711
Sphinx is used to build the documentation based on rST files and comments in the code. First,
install dependencies (feel free to reuse the virtual environment from above):
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip install Sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tlc59711
Now, once you have the virtual environment activated:
Usage Example
=============

.. code-block:: shell
See examples/tlc59711_simpletest.py for a demo of the usage.

cd docs
sphinx-build -E -W -b html . _build/html

Documentation
=============

This will output the documentation to ``docs/_build/html``. Open the index.html in your browser to
view them. It will also (due to -W) error out on any warning like Travis will. This is a good way to
locally verify it will pass.
