PDL_Addressable_LED

The PDL_Addressable_LED library provides an interface for controlling addressable LEDs using the Adafruit NeoPixel library. It includes various pre-defined patterns and allows for customization of single-color patterns with support for features like fading and marquee effects.

Features

• Easy integration with Adafruit NeoPixel library
• Pre-defined LED patterns
• Custom single-color patterns
• Support for fading and marquee effects
• Debugging features

Installation

1. Download the library from the GitHub repository.
2. Unzip the downloaded file.
3. Move the unzipped folder to your Arduino libraries directory (usually located in Documents/Arduino/libraries).

Usage

Include the Library

#include <PDL_Addressable_LED.h>

Initialize the LED Controller

Adafruit_NeoPixel strip = Adafruit_NeoPixel(NUM_LEDS, PIN, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);
PDL_Addressable_LED ledController(strip);

Set a Pre-defined Pattern

ledController.setPatternSingleColor(PDL_Addressable_LED::PATTERN_GREEN_CONST_ALL);

Create and Set a Custom Pattern

PDL_Addressable_LED::single_color_pattern_t customPattern = {
    .r = 255,
    .g = 0,
    .b = 0,
    .w = 0,
    .index = 0,
    .count_mid = 5,
    .count_dim_left = 2,
    .count_dim_right = 2,
    .fade_interval_ms = 1000,
    .fade_step = 10,
    .marquee_interval_ms = 500,
    .marquee_dir = PDL_Addressable_LED::Marquee_t::CIRCULAR_LEFT
};

ledController.setPatternSingleColor(customPattern);

Debugging

Enable debugging to get detailed logs:

ledController.setDebug(1);
