SPI python ?

[herialtifa]

Hello,

How i can access SPI pin (pi2bus or euler) with python spidev?

i look in the raspberry, the SPI port must be enable before using through raspi-config. How about pine64?
Thank's

Use this Python library : https://github.com/swkim01/RPi.GPIO-PineA64

Here some loopback testing code :

Code:

#!/usr/bin/python
import RPi.SPI as spi
data = [0xDE,0xAD,0xBE,0xEF,0xBA,0xAD,0xF0,0x0D]
spi.open("/dev/spidev0.0")
spi.write(data)
data = spi.xfer(data, len(data))
spi.close()
print data

Thanks Martinayotte,

What the spi.xfer?

I look 2 pins SPI (pi2bus and euler),
which the pin i can call /dev/spidev0.0 and /dev/spidev0.1?

On raspi tutorial, we can look spidev0.0 in /dev but in pine not found.

spi.xfer() is transmitting and receiving at the same time, full-duplex transfer.

If you don't see /dev/spi0.0 on your board, it is probably that you don't use an image using longsleep's kernel, because SPIs have been added in the DT of longsleep several months ago.

I feel that this image is pretty old. Which version is show when doing "uname -a"
If you don't mind switch to Ubuntu, here is on image built in December :
http://files.pine64.org/os/ubuntu/xubunt...8GB.img.gz
or even better, one from Armbian :

Mmmh I was looking at...

https://github.com/longsleep/build-pine6....dts#L1849
https://github.com/longsleep/build-pine6....dts#L1865

Maybe the SPI blocks are disabled by default to have the pins as GPIO?
