CircuitPython driver for the qmc5883l magnetometer

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

• Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>_
• Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>_
• Register <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Register>_

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.

=====================

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/circuitpython-qmc5883l/>_. To install for current user:

… code-block:: shell

pip3 install circuitpython-qmc5883l

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

… code-block:: shell

sudo pip3 install circuitpython-qmc5883l

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

… code-block:: shell

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install circuitpython-qmc5883l

Installing to a Connected CircuitPython Device with Circup

Make sure that you have circup installed in your Python environment. Install it with the following command if necessary:

… code-block:: shell

pip3 install circup

With circup installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the following command to install:

… code-block:: shell

circup install qmc5883l

Or the following command to update an existing version:

… code-block:: shell

circup update
