Laurens Valk 5c2df91bc4 doc/iodevices: split ev3 and pup to subfiles
This allows us to easily exclude a platform if needed.

Laurens Valk 5a2d1f5406 api/iodevices: simplify LUMPDevice API
All these device can do is read or write values at a particular mode. There is also no need for separate mode setters.

Laurens Valk af3954989a doc/iodevices: add note about EV3 compatibility.
Some iodevices are only available on EV3 (for now or forever).

Laurens Valk f73e7f08bc api/iodevices: add LUMPDevice
This can be used to interface with LPF2 and EV3 sensors that use the LEGO UART Messaging Protocol.

Laurens Valk 21a0b8766e api: rename customdevices to iodevices
These devices are not always custom. Rather, the classes in this module are very generic and apply to a wide range of input/output devices.

Laurens Valk e74003f5d8 doc/customdevices: add DCMotor 2020-01-01 16:31:19 +01:00
Laurens Valk 46dba95342 api/builtins: add DCMotor
This is a strict subset of Motor, covering functionality of DC motors only. This is useful for motors without encoders, such as train motors.

It is inherited by Motor, which adds functionality that requires encoders.

Laurens Valk 990527c12a api/builtins/Motor: update reset_angle text
Control+ motors have absolute encoders, but no marker on the shaft. This revises the text accordingly.

Laurens Valk 8acab1898a doc: delete existing inline examples

Laurens Valk 2e78033720 doc/devices: simplify motor docs, reduce detail
Previously, we simplified the docs for initializing a motor. This commit also simplifies the docstrings for common motor methods, by leaving out details and optional arguments. Full details are still available on the dedicated motor page.

Laurens Valk 709659ffbf doc/hubs: remove builtins section
This will not be used in the next release.
2019-12-09 10:43:28 +01:00
Laurens Valk be667caa7b doc/signaltypes: move scalars and vectors
This makes it possible to exclude this information from releases that do not use it.
2019-12-09 10:31:22 +01:00
Laurens Valk e7c63533b0 doc/parameters: remove unused parameters
Ports are accessed through hub instance.

The Axis and Side parameters will not be implemented for the next release, so we remove them for now.

Laurens Valk 184763e81a Revert "add option to enable/disable encoders"
Encoderless motors are more an exception than the rule, so they will get a separate class.

This reverts commit 6f68c60d3b.

Laurens Valk 22bbca3e24 doc/customdevices: simplify I2C docs

Laurens Valk 3143b28be1 doc/customdevices: remove custom init string
We only need this if the string is different from the auto-generated default, such as when we want to prevent expansion of an enum to a number.
2019-12-06 14:35:16 +01:00
Laurens Valk 4086ee67ac api/customdevices: use bytes for I2C
This is a more natural data type than tuples or ints for this class.

Laurens Valk 1be5beb54e doc/ev3devices/AnalogSensor: update type check
We no longer have to tell people to reboot the brick after changing the port mode. This is all done automatically now.

Laurens Valk f03970a77e doc/motors: rename direction to positive_direction
While being longer, this reflects more accurately what this setting does.
2019-11-11 15:19:25 +01:00
Laurens Valk 69216abc8a api/pupdevices: fix line break
This caused the init arguments to be displayed incorrectly.

Also, fix whitespaces and line ends.

Laurens Valk d172780508 doc/motors: add stalled section
By moving some of the technical details to dedicated sections of the docs, we can add more (or simplified, less technical) information without cluttering the API commands.
2019-11-11 15:08:08 +01:00
Laurens Valk d6f25acce8 doc/motors: add gears section
Explain the setting using an example.

Laurens Valk 4f25a0c467 doc/ev3devices: On EV3 docs, drop DC methods.
These can still be viewed on the full Motor class description. But on EV3, these functions are not so relevant as all motors have encoders.

Then we can also remove the encoded/encoderless rubric, further removing clutter.
2019-11-11 13:25:41 +01:00
Laurens Valk f12c579159 doc: move Motor to dedicated page.
Instead, show shorter, simpler Motor docs platform-devices pages. For the moment, this just means deleting the advanced methods section from those pages, but we may choose to simplify further.

This change makes it easier to navigate the ev3devices/pupdevices pages because the motor sections aren't overly long.

Details will still be available on the Motor pages for those who wish to use the more advanced motor capabilities such as adjusting the PID settings.
