Python library for Raspberry Pi and SDD1306 connected via I2C/SPI

Installation

sudo apt-get install libjpeg62-turbo-dev libjpeg-dev
sudo -H pip3 install --upgrade luma.oled

Nice Japanese font - misaki font and installation

misaki font is 8 x 8 Truetype font in almost in 7 x 7 area so that it has high readability in small space. http://littlelimit.net/misaki.htm

cd luma.examples/examples
mkdir misakifont
cd misakifont
wget http://littlelimit.net/arc/misaki/misaki_ttf_2019-02-03a.zip
unzip misaki_ttf_2019-02-03a.zip

Test drive from luma.examples

git clone https://github.com/Naohiro2g/luma.examples.git
cd luma.examples/examples

# misaki font
python3 crawl-misaki.py --interface spi  # for SPI connection
python3 crawl-misaki.py                  # for I2C connection

# moving cube in 3D
python3 3d_box.py --interface spi
# space invaders!
python3 invaders.py --interface spi
# bouncing balls with FPS
python3 bounce.py --interface spi

# bench marking     approx. 80FPS
python3 perfloop.py --interface spi
# see https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.oled/wiki/Usage-&-Benchmarking#096-spi-oled---ssd1306

Display drivers for SSD1306 / SSD1309 / SSD1322 / SSD1325 / SSD1327 / SSD1331 / SSD1351 / SH1106

Python library interfacing OLED matrix displays with the SSD1306, SSD1309, SSD1322, SSD1325, SSD1327, SSD1331, SSD1351 or SH1106 driver using I2C/SPI on the Raspberry Pi and other linux-based single-board computers - it provides a Pillow-compatible drawing canvas, and other functionality to support:

  • scrolling/panning capability,
  • terminal-style printing,
  • state management,
  • color/greyscale (where supported),
  • dithering to monochrome

Documentation

Full documentation with installation instructions and examples can be found on https://luma-oled.readthedocs.io.

A list of tested devices can be found in the wiki.

The display pictured below is a SSD1306 (128 x 64 pixels), and the board is tiny enough to fit inside the RPi case.

As well as display drivers for various physical OLED devices, there are emulators that run in real-time (with pygame) and others that can take screenshots, or assemble animated GIFs, as per the examples below (source code for these is available in the luma.examples git repository:

Breaking changes

Version 2.0.0 was released on 11 January 2017: this came with a rename of the github project from ssd1306 to luma.oled to reflect the changing nature of the codebase.

Some core functionality has been moved out to another git repository, luma.core: this has enabled another project to have a facelift: pcd8544 has now been reborn as luma.lcd: the same API can now be used across both projects. Likewise max7219 has been renamed to luma.led_matrix so it can also take advantage of the common API.

The consequence is that any existing code that uses the old ssd1306 package will need to be updated. The changes should be limited to altering import statements only, and are described in the upgrade documentation.
