# micropython-oled-progressbars

This is a collection of display elements for showing progress on ssd1306 OLED screen using micropython.

The elements are built to reduce draw calls to the frame buffer (improving performance).

If your application requires redraws every update (if, for instance, you have a loading bar which animates across the screen while updating) you can call the "BarBase" class instead which will repaint the entire element on updates.

# Usage

## Basic infinite UI bar

![Basic Infinite Bar](/images/basic.jpg)

```python

import ssd1306

import progress_bar

i2c = I2C(-1, scl=Pin(5), sda=Pin(4))

oled_width = 128

oled_height = 64

oled = ssd1306.SSD1306_I2C(oled_width, oled_height, i2c)

# create a new progress bar

infinte_bar = progress_bar.ProgressBar(10, 40, oled.width - 20, 15, oled)

oled.text('connecting to', 0, 10)

oled.text('network...', 0, 20)

# animate the progress bar

while True:

  infinte_bar.update()

  oled.show()

```

## Infinite UI bar with text

![Infinite Bar With Text](/images/text.jpg)

```python

# create a new progress bar

infinte_bar = progress_bar.ProgressBar(10, 40, oled.width - 20, 15, oled)

index = 0

# animate the progress bar

while True:

  # set dynamic text on top of bar

  infinte_bar.set_text('SLEEPING %s' % index, 0)

  infinte_bar.update()

  oled.show()

  

  if index >= 99:

    index = 0

  else:

    index += 1

```

## Progress UI bar

```python

# create a new progress bar

my_bar = progress_bar.ProgressBar(10, 40, oled.width - 20, 15, oled)

index = 0

# animate the progress bar

while True:

  # set amount of bar to fill

  my_bar.set_percent(index)

  my_bar.update()

  oled.show()

  

  if index >= 99:

    index = 0

  else:

    index += 1

```
