Migration of GPIO drivers

From time to time a breaking change of API can happen. Following to SemVer, the gobot main version should be increased. In such case all users needs to adjust there projects for the next update, although they not using a driver with changed API.

To prevent this scenario for most users, the main version will not always increased, but affected GPIO drivers are listed here and a migration strategy is provided.

Switch from version 2.2.0

ButtonDriver, PIRMotionDriver: substitute parameter "v time.duration"

A backward compatible case is still included, but it is recommended to use "WithButtonPollInterval" instead, see example below.

// old
d := gpio.NewButtonDriver(adaptor, "1", 50*time.Millisecond)

// new
d := gpio.NewButtonDriver(adaptor, "1", gpio.WithButtonPollInterval(50*time.Millisecond))

EasyDriver: optional pins

There is no need to use the direction, enable or sleep feature of the driver. Therefore the parameters are removed from constructor. Please migrate according to the examples below. The order of the optional functions does not matter.

// old
d0 := gpio.NewEasyDriver(adaptor, 0.80, "1", "", "", "")
d1 := gpio.NewEasyDriver(adaptor, 0.81, "11", "12", "", "")
d2 := gpio.NewEasyDriver(adaptor, 0.82, "21", "22", "23", "")
d3 := gpio.NewEasyDriver(adaptor, 0.83, "31", "32", "33", "34")

// new
d0 := gpio.NewEasyDriver(adaptor, 0.80, "1")
d1 := gpio.NewEasyDriver(adaptor, 0.81, "11", gpio.WithEasyDirectionPin("12"))
d2 := gpio.NewEasyDriver(adaptor, 0.82, "21", gpio.WithEasyDirectionPin("22"), gpio.WithEasyEnablePin("23"))
d3 := gpio.NewEasyDriver(adaptor, 0.83, "31", gpio.WithEasyDirectionPin("32"), gpio.WithEasyEnablePin("33"),
  gpio.WithEasySleepPin("34"))

BuzzerDriver: unexport 'BPM' attribute

d := gpio.NewBuzzerDriver(adaptor, "1")
// old
d.BPM = 120.0
fmt.Println("BPM:", d.BPM)

// new
d.SetBPM(120.0)
fmt.Println("BPM:", d.BPM())

RelayDriver: unexport 'Inverted' attribute

Usually the relay is inverted or not, except be rewired. From now on the inverted behavior can only be changed on initialization. If there is really a different use case, please file a new issue.

// old
d := gpio.NewRelayDriver(adaptor, "1")
d.Inverted = true
fmt.Println("is inverted:", d.Inverted)

// new
d := gpio.NewRelayDriver(adaptor, "1", gpio.WithRelayInverted())
fmt.Println("is inverted:", d.IsInverted())

HD44780Driver: make 'SetRWPin()' an option

// old
d := gpio.NewHD44780Driver(adaptor, ...)
d.SetRWPin("10")

// new
d := gpio.NewHD44780Driver(adaptor, ..., gpio.WithHD44780RWPin("10"))

ServoDriver: unexport 'CurrentAngle' and rename functions 'Min()', 'Max()', 'Center()'

d := gpio.NewServoDriver(adaptor, "1")
// old
d.Min()
fmt.Println("current position:", d.CurrentAngle)
d.Center()
d.Max()

// new
d.ToMin()
fmt.Println("current position:", d.Angle())
d.ToCenter()
d.ToMax()

MotorDriver: unexport pin and state attributes, rename functions

The motor driver was heavily revised - sorry for the inconveniences.

affected pins:

  • SpeedPin
  • SwitchPin (removed, was unused)
  • DirectionPin
  • ForwardPin
  • BackwardPin

Usually the pins will not change without a hardware rewiring. All pins, except the speed pin are optionally, so options are designed for that.

// old
d := gpio.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, "1")
d.DirectionPin = "10"

// new
d := gpio.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, "1", gpio.WithMotorDirectionPin("10"))
// old
d := gpio.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, "1")
d.ForwardPin = "10"
d.BackWardPin = "11"

// new
d := gpio.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, "1", gpio.WithMotorForwardPin("10"), gpio.WithMotorBackwardPin("11"))

affected functions:

  • Speed() --> SetSpeed()
  • Direction() --> SetDirection()
  • Max() --> RunMax()
  • Min() --> RunMin()

affected states:

  • CurrentState
  • CurrentSpeed
  • CurrentMode
  • CurrentDirection

Most of the attributes were used only for reading. If there is something missing, please file a new issue.

d := gpio.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, "1")
// old
d.On()
fmt.Println("is on:", d.CurrentState==1)
fmt.Println("speed:", d.CurrentSpeed)
d.Off()
fmt.Println("is off:", d.CurrentState==0)
fmt.Println("mode is digital:", d.CurrentMode=="digital")
fmt.Println("direction:", d.CurrentDirection)

// new
d.On()
fmt.Println("is on:", d.IsOn())
d.Off()
fmt.Println("is on:", d.IsOff())
fmt.Println("speed:", d.Speed())
fmt.Println("mode is digital:", d.IsDigital())
fmt.Println("direction:", d.Direction())
d := gpio.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, "1")
// old
d.Speed(123)
fmt.Println("is mode now analog?", d.CurrentMode!="digital")

// new
d.SetSpeed(123)
fmt.Println("is mode now analog?", d.IsAnalog())

Although, it is working like above, it will be more clear, if the mode is defined at the beginning, like so.

// old
d := gpio.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, "1")
d.CurrentMode=="analog"
d.Max()

// new
d := gpio.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, "1", gpio.WithMotorAnalog())
d.RunMax()
