# Issue-Printer

### Bringing GitHub issues in the physical world

The Issue-Printer is a little thermal printer, connected to Arduino, that automatically prints out comments and issues from a certain repository of GitHub.

 

### Connecting the printer

In order to connect the printer to the Arduino you only need three wires: the red, the black and the blue one.

The red one goes in the vin pin and provides the currentThe black one is for the groundThe blue one, which is where datas pass through, goes in the tx pin.

### Loading sketches

Before loading any sketch you need to install the [adafruit library](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-Thermal-Printer-Library) and the [json library](https://github.com/bblanchon/ArduinoJson).

In this repository you will find an [Arduino sketch](https://github.com/CasaJasmina/Issue_ThermalPrinter/tree/master/Arduino_Github_Printer) ready to be loaded.

All the .h files are bitmaps of images made with the processing sketch that you can find in the Adafruit's library examples.
