ADXL345
=======
Python module to use ADXL345. Compatible with Python 2 and Python 3.
Based on [pimoroni/adxl345-python](https://github.com/pimoroni/adxl345-python).
## Install
Install it as a dependency using pip:
``` bash
pip install adxl345
```
## Usage
- Import module and instantiate an ADXL345
``` python
from adxl345 import ADXL345
adxl345 = ADXL345()
```
- Get 3-axis accelerations in m.s-²
``` python
axes = adxl345.get_axes()
# Returns something like:
# axes['x'] => -0.1614
# axes['y'] => 0.0691
# axes['z'] => 9.8064
```
- Get 3-axis accelerations in g (Earth gravity)
``` python
axes = adxl345.get_axes(True)
# Returns something like:
# axes['x'] => -0.0014
# axes['y'] => 0.0001
# axes['z'] => 1.0012
```
- Use another IC2 address
By default, this library uses the `0x53` I2C address.
To use another address, set it when creating an instance of ADXL345:
``` python
adxl345 = ADXL345(0x1D)
```
## Full example
``` python
from adxl345 import ADXL345
adxl345 = ADXL345()
axes = adxl345.get_axes(True)
# Returns something like:
# axes['x'] => -0.0014
# axes['y'] => 0.0001
# axes['z'] => 1.0012
```
