Alternative CircuitPython API for NeoKey I2C Keypad

Dependencies
=============
This driver depends on:

* `Adafruit CircuitPython `_
* `Bus Device `_

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading
`the Adafruit library and driver bundle `_
or individual libraries can be installed using
`circup `_.

Installing to a Connected CircuitPython Device with Circup
==========================================================

Make sure that you have ``circup`` installed in your Python environment.
Install it with the following command if necessary:

.. code-block:: shell

pip3 install circup

With ``circup`` installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the
following command to install:

.. code-block:: shell

circup install alt_neokey

Or the following command to update an existing version:

.. code-block:: shell

circup update

Usage Example
=============

.. code-block:: py

import board
from alt_neokey.alt_neokey1x4 import NeoKey1x4

i2c = board.I2C()
neokey = NeoKey1x4(i2c)

# set colors in main loop by processing event list
while True:
for event in neokey.read():
if event.pressed:
neokey[event.key_num].color = 0x0000FF
else:
neokey[event.key_num].color = 0
print(event.key_num, event.pressed)
