MMM-PiLights - Control a LPD8806 Led Strip on a Raspberry Pi
-
Hi,
Has anyone tried using one of the voice control modules to change color or control the light strip? I am new to this and would be interested in some ideas on how to point the correct modules. -
Hello :), I buyed a WS2801 LED-Chain and now I try to get the module running. I Installed the library via. “npm install rpi-ws2801” but I dont know what I Need to Change to get it work.
var leds = require(“rpi-ws2801”);
Putting this in my js.File I only get an error message in my developer console?
Can somebody help me please? -
yes, and you need to check the dependencies in your package.json file.
The WS2801 library uses lightly other function-names, you probably need to check that outhttps://www.npmjs.com/package/rpi-ws2801 vs.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/lpd8806-asyncI work on an own repository for this one but unfortunaly do not have much time at the moment, you can check that out as well. I thought of an option which sais that you are using ws2801 or lpd8806 and the module handles it … but a lot stuff to do.

Does anyone know if APA102 (or DOTSTAR) can be used without modification of the code?

I ordered these:
