API Design Heuristics | ||
********************* | ||
|
||
The API should be Pythonic yet pragmatic. We formulated the following heuristics at PyCon UK 2015. | ||
|
||
* If there is only one of a certain type of hardware, we instantiate it and make the resulting object available under the ``microbit`` namespace. E.g. ``microbit.compass``. | ||
* If there are several of certain types of hardware we enumerate them under a namespace for that type of hardware. E.g. ``microbit.buttons.a`` | ||
* We use short, obvious commonly used names for things and avoid acronyms. Ergo, ``microbit.io`` is renamed to ``microbit.pins``. | ||
* Pins, because they are objects, are names ``p0``-``p20`` (not uppercase). | ||
* The ``set_analog_interval`` method is universal in scope for the pins, so is made available under the ``microbit.pins`` namespace. | ||
* Each pin object will only have methods that match its actual capabilities - so if it's a digital only pin, it shouldn't have analog methods. | ||
* The pin methods are: ``write_digital(x)``, ``read_digital()``, ``write_analog(x)`` and ``read_analog()``. They're not attributes so they can be used in lambdas and for consistency (everything else is a function). | ||
* The ``microbit.display`` object has several related methods to draw things on the display in increasing complexity / capability: ``print``, ``scroll`` and ``animate``. | ||
* The display has two modes: on/off and greyscale. Only 4 or 5 graduations of greyscale are actually visible. We could make these easy to use/remember (0-5???). | ||
* The ``animate`` method would take the ``wait`` and ``loop`` flags (to simplify the language used). | ||
* It would be possible to implement a sound / music API using the PWM capabilities of the device. @ntoll to flesh this out in public. | ||
* We need more built-in images in addition to the 20 or so we already have. | ||
* Suggested Easter eggs: | ||
1. ``import love`` | ||
2. ``import antigravity`` | ||
3. "Australia" mode (in honour of Damien - everything on the display is upside down to what it should be) | ||
4. built in animations for common signals - e.g. the heartbeat we already have |
