RobotPy NetworkTables Project

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

This is a pure python implementation of the NetworkTables protocol, derived

from the wpilib ntcore C++ implementation. In FRC, the NetworkTables protocol

is used to pass non-Driver Station data to and from the robot across the network.

This implementation is intended to be compatible with python 3.5 and later.

All commits to the repository are automatically tested on all supported python

versions using github actions.

.. note:: NetworkTables is a protocol used for robot communication in the

          FIRST Robotics Competition, and can be used to talk to

          SmartDashboard/SFX. It does not have any security, and should never

          be used on untrusted networks.

.. note:: If you require support for Python 2.7, use pynetworktables 2018.2.0

Documentation

-------------

For usage, detailed installation information, and other notes, please see

our documentation at http://pynetworktables.readthedocs.io

Don't understand this NetworkTables thing? Check out our `basic overview of

NetworkTables `_.

Installation

------------

On the RoboRIO, you don't install this directly, but use the RobotPy installer

to install it on your RoboRIO, or it is installed by pip as part of the

pyfrc setup process.

On something like a coprocessor, driver station, or laptop, make sure pip is

installed, connect to the internet, and install like so:

::

    pip install pynetworktables

Support

-------

The RobotPy project has a mailing list that you can send emails to for

support: [email protected]. Keep in mind that the maintainers of

RobotPy projects are also members of FRC Teams and do this in their free

time.
