raspberrypi-python-client
==========

A library that provide access to the ATT IOT platform, for the Python language (geared for RPI development).

### Installation
- Copy the library to the RPI:
- Run `git clone https://github.com/allthingstalk/raspberrypi-python-client`
- or use an ftp client to copy the library to your RPI.
- Run `sudo bash raspberrypi-python-client/setupGrovePi.sh` in case you have the grovePi shield
or `sudo bash raspberrypi-python-client/setupNoShield.sh` if you don't have a grovePi shield

### pip
A pip version is also available, but it will only install the library, not the grovePi dependencies. To install with pip:

`sudo pip install att_iot_client`

Note: the procedure from git, running the bash command will also install the pip package, so that the library is globally available.

### Instructions

1. Setup the raspberry pi hardware
- Grove kit shield
- Push button to A2
- Led light to D4
2. Create the device in the IOT platform.
3. Modify the template script 'Shield_Demo.py' : `sudo nano raspberrypi-python-client/Shield_Demo.py`
fill in the missing strings: replace deviceId, clientId, clientKey. Optionally change/add the sensor & actuator names, pins, descriptions, types.
4. Run the script: `sudo python raspberrypi-python-client/Shield_Demo.py`

### Extra info

- This [guide](http://allthingstalk.com/docs/tutorials/raspberrypi/setup/) contains a full recipe and detailed explenation on all aspects of the process. It guides you into setting up your Grove Pi, SD card and the platform.
- There's a [trouble shooting section](http://AllThingsTalk.com/docs/tutorials/raspberrypi/setup/#troubleshooting) you can check out if you are having problems.
- Also make certain that you check out all the availabile documentation that we have for the [raspberry pi](http://allthingstalk.com/docs/tutorials/raspberrypi/setup/).
