3.1 Installation

Installing pickups is easy. Just use pip:

$ pip install pickups

Common practise is to have an own virtual environment for your new project. Having virtualenvwrapper

installed, you can install pickups with:

$ mkvirtualenv pickups

$ pip install pickups

3.2 Usage

To use pickups in a project you have to import the main package by invoking:

$ import pickups

3.2.1 Get Started

For your convenience you can use the helper method pickups.helpers.register() which creates a custom

signal handler for you and then starts looping (depending on your conﬁguration ﬁle) to inﬁnity to update the extreme

feedback device statuses. Using the already shipped pickups.bamboo.BambooPickup and a conﬁguration ﬁle

you can easily start going with a very simple runner like this:

import os

import signal

import pickups

from pickups.bamboo.bamboopickup import BambooPickup

def registerpickup(configfile):

pickups.helpers.register(BambooPickup, configfile, sign=signal.SIGTERM)

def main():

here = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))

configfile = os.path.join(here, ’config.cfg’)
