i2c - a package for accessing the i2c bus on Linux

Overview

The i2c package provides a native Go interface to the Linux i2c/smbus device drivers.

Automated package documentation for this Go package should be available from .

Getting started

Cross compiling to make something runable on a Raspberry Pi binary can be done as follows:

$ GOARCH=arm GOOS=linux go build example/s35390.go

This example is for a specific i2c device: a real time clock.

Another example looks at the two supported addresses for one of the Bosch pressure sensors:

$ GOARCH=arm GOOS=linux go build example/bpmx8x.go

TODOs

Explore some different i2c Raspberry Pi hats, perhaps add some more examples.

License info

The i2c package is distributed with the same BSD 3-clause license as that used by golang itself.

Reporting bugs and feature requests

The package i2c has been developed purely out of self-interest and a curiosity for physical IO projects, primarily on the Raspberry Pi. Should you find a bug or want to suggest a feature addition, please use the bug tracker.
