Introduction

CircuitPython library for interfacing the BB Q10 Keyboard over I2C.

The firmware that this library should be used with can be found here: https://github.com/arturo182/bbq10kbd_i2c_sw

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.

Usage Example

See examples/ for a quick examples on how to use the library.

There is no release, no mpy.

Maybe you should make a release and provide an mpy.

OSError on rp2040 w/ CircuitPython 7.3.3

When trying to use this library on an rp2040 (specifically the Adafruit Feather rp2040) I get this traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "code.py", line 70, in <module>
  File "bbq10keyboard.py", line 116, in key_count
  File "bbq10keyboard.py", line 109, in status
OSError: [Errno 19] No such device

Snippit of my code:

command = ''

def handle_keyboard(pressed):

    if pressed == '\b':
        command = command[:l-1]
    elif pressed == 10: #enter
        command = ''
    else:
        command = command + pressed

    time.sleep(0.03)

while True:
    key_count = kbd.key_count
    if key_count > 0:
        key = kbd.key
        handle_keyboard(key)

I have tried with CircuitPython 7.3.3 and 8.0.0-beta.0 and I get the same result each time.

(FYI: I suspect this might be an issue with CircuitPython, as it seems related to this. Just wanted to document this so you know! <3)
