PiFaceSharp

PiFaceSharp is a C# library for controlling the inputs and outputs on a Pi-Face Digital device connected to a Raspberry Pi, and is based loosely around Gordon Henderson's WiringPiFace project (see https://projects.drogon.net/raspberry-pi/wiringpiface/).

The library can be used to write C# applications that run using Mono on the Raspberry Pi.

Follow the links below to read about some of the features of PiFaceSharp:

• Getting Started

• Pin Controllers - background workers that will manage pin state automatically

• PiFace Emulator - a virtual PiFace for Windows that you can program against even if you don't have a Raspberry Pi!

• PiFace Remoting - control the pins on your PiFace over a network using exactly the same C# code as when running it on the Raspberry Pi.

Example

// get reference to default piface device
var piface = new PiFaceDevice();

// toggle each output pin on and off 50 times
for (byte pin = 0; pin < 8; pin++)
{
    var state = true;
    for (var i = 0; i < 50; i++)
    {
        piface.SetOutputPinState(pin, state);
        System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(25);
        state = !state;
    }
}

// read the current state of each input pin
for (byte pin = 0; pin < 8; pin++)
{
    Console.Write(piface.GetInputPinState(pin) + " ");
}
