Tessel Button DIY Module

This project accompanies the Creating Your Own Tessel Module guide. It takes the A Button on Tessel project to the next level by creating a plug and play module with the new proto-module boards.

npm install tessel-gpio-button

With the module connected to Port A create a file named myButton.js with the following

// examples/button.js
// Count button presses

var tessel = require('tessel');
var buttonLib = require('tessel-gpio-button');
var myButton = buttonLib.use(tessel.port['A'].pin['G1']);

var i = 0;

myButton.on('ready', function () {
  myButton.on('press', function () {
    i++;
    console.log('Press', i);
  });

  myButton.on('release', function () {
    i++;
    console.log('Release', i);
  });
});

Every time you press the button it will log to the console.
