## What is Blynk?
Blynk provides **iOS** and **Android** apps to control any hardware **over the Internet** or **directly using Bluetooth**.
You can easily build graphic interfaces for all your projects by simply dragging and dropping widgets, **right on your smartphone**.
Blynk is **the most popular IoT platform** used by design studios, makers, educators, and equipment vendors all over the world.

## Usage example
```py
import BlynkLib
# Initialize Blynk
blynk = BlynkLib.Blynk('YourAuthToken')
# Register Virtual Pins
@blynk.VIRTUAL_WRITE(1)
def my_write_handler(value):
print('Current V1 value: {}'.format(value))
@blynk.VIRTUAL_READ(2)
def my_read_handler():
# this widget will show some time in seconds..
blynk.virtual_write(2, int(time.time()))
while True:
blynk.run()
```
## Features
- **Python 2, Python 3, MicroPython** support
- **
Linux,
Windows,
MacOS** support
- `virtual_write`
- `sync_virtual`
- `set_property`
- `log_event`
- events: `Vn`, `connected`, `disconnected`, `invalid_auth`
- `TCP` and secure `TLS/SSL` connection support
- can run on embedded hardware, like `ESP8266`, `ESP32`, `W600` or `OpenWrt`
## Ubuntu/Linux/Raspberry Pi installation
```sh
pip install blynk-library-python
```
For **Blynk.Edgent Dynamic Provisioning**, please see `examples/Edgent_Linux_RPi`
## ESP32/ESP8266 installation
- Get the latest [MicroPython](https://micropython.org/download) firmware and flash it to your board
- Edit [ESP8266_ESP32.py](examples/hardware/ESP8266_ESP32.py) example (put your `auth token` and wifi credentials)
- Use `ampy` or any other method to transfer files to the device
```sh
export AMPY_PORT=/dev/ttyUSB0
ampy mkdir /lib
ampy put BlynkLib.py /lib/BlynkLib.py
ampy put ./examples/hardware/ESP8266_ESP32.py main.py
```
**Note:** LoBo firmware stores files uder `/flash` directory, use `ampy mkdir /flash/lib` and so on
- Open device terminal and reboot the board (or type `execfile('main.py')`)
- For ESP8266, you may need to disable secure connection using:
```py
blynk = BlynkLib.Blynk('YourAuthToken', insecure=True)
```
## PyCom installation
- This should work with WiPy 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, LoPy, SiPy, GPy, FiPy
- Instructions are the same as for ESP32, just use [PyCom_WiPy.py](examples/hardware/PyCom_WiPy.py) example
