libgpiod Python bindings API

The libgpiod Python bindings provide an interface to control and interact with GPIO (General-Purpose Input/Output) lines on Linux systems using the libgpiod library. The Python bindings allow developers to manage GPIO pins easily through Python scripts, enabling tasks such as reading input values, setting outputs, monitoring events, and configuring more fine-grained pin options.

Note

Python bindings require python3 support and libpython development files for building from sources.
