peach-buttons

GPIO microservice module for handling button presses. peach-buttons implements a JSON-RPC server with Publish-Subscribe extension. Each button press results in a JSON-RPC request being sent over websockets to any subscribers. A button code for the pressed button is sent with the request to subscribers, allowing state-specific actions to be taken by the subscriber.

In the case of PeachCloud, the peach-menu microservice subscribes to peach-buttons in order to update the state of the menu after each button press.

Note: This module is relatively stable but is still a work-in-progress.

Note: peach-buttons utilizes the GPIO character device ABI. This API, stabilized with Linux v4.4, deprecates the legacy sysfs interface to GPIOs that is planned to be removed from the upstream kernel after year 2020.
