CircuitPython displayio drivers for IL0398 driven e-paper displays

Dependencies

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

This driver depends on:

* `Adafruit CircuitPython `_

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.

This is easily achieved by downloading

`the Adafruit library and driver bundle `_.

Installing from PyPI

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

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from

PyPI `_. To install for current user:

.. code-block:: shell

    pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-il0398

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

.. code-block:: shell

    sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-il0398

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

.. code-block:: shell

    mkdir project-name && cd project-name

    python3 -m venv .venv

    source .venv/bin/activate

    pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-il0398

Usage Example

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

.. code-block:: python

    """Simple test script for 4.2" 400x300 black and white displays.

    Supported products:

      * WaveShare 4.2" Black and White

        * https://www.waveshare.com/product/modules/oleds-lcds/e-paper/4.2inch-e-paper.htm

        * https://www.waveshare.com/product/modules/oleds-lcds/e-paper/4.2inch-e-paper-module.htm
