ChromaPython

What is different from the original chroma-python repo?

Better code tracing & debugging with allogate, as well as generally easier to maintain code using proper class and inheritance structure.

For example, compare these two files which share the same functionality

• https://github.com/FlameOfIgnis/better-chroma-python/blob/master/ChromaPython/ChromaDevices.py
• https://github.com/chroma-sdk/chroma-python/blob/master/ChromaPython/ChromaDevices.py

I've seen that original repo has stopped responding to issues and pull requests about a year ago, so I've decided to create a fork an maintain it, rather than send a pull request.

Example Use

from chromasdk.ChromaPython import ChromaApp, ChromaAppInfo, ChromaColor, Colors, ChromaGrid

info = ChromaAppInfo()
info.DeveloperName = 'Ignis'
info.DeveloperContact = "Please don't"
info.Category = 'application'
info.SupportedDevices = ['keyboard', 'mouse', 'mousepad', 'headset']
info.Description = 'Sync Razer device colors with other components'
info.Title = 'A cool RGB toy'

app = ChromaApp(self.info)

c = ChromaColor(123,123,123)
app.Mouse.setStatic(c)
app.Headset.setStatic(c)
time.sleep(10)

Extra features of this fork (so far)

• Await session Wait for session to fully open before finishing ChromaApp constructor, so that there is no race condition that can crash the application.
• Renegotiate bad connections When a session id and URL is given but does not work, re-negotiate the connection up to 3 times.
• Better code all around in general.

Pip should now install all necessary dependencies, as well as ChromaPython itself.

By using the Source files:

Requirements:

requests

Can be installed by

pip install requests

After installing requests, clone the repository and copy all files of the ChromaPython folder into your working directory.

Contributing

Feel free to contribute by reporting issues and/or extending the current code. You can do this by forking this project and creating a pull request. Unfinished tasks can be found as "enhancement" issues. Also, please always add comments to your changes/new code.

How to use

Take a look at Tests\checkall.py. It should give you a good example on how to use it. An example on how to use the BCA feature can be found inTest\checkBinary.py.
