Playground-IO

A special Firmata.js wrapper for Adafruit Circuit Playground. Exposes controllers that provide access to Circuit Playground's Firmata extensions.

Setup

Before you can use Johnny-Five and Playground-IO, your Circuit Playground board MUST have the CircuitPlaygroundFirmata firmware variant uploaded. For instructions, visit Adafruit's Circuit Playground Firmata tutorial. Once complete, your Circuit Playground is ready to communicate with Johny-Five programs running in Node.js. Go ahead and install the following:

npm install johnny-five playground-io

Now you can try out the examples below!

Playground.Pixel

Control the Neopixels directly attached to the board.

var Playground = require("playground-io");
var five = require("johnny-five");
var board = new five.Board({
  io: new Playground({
    port: "/dev/tty.usbmodem1411",
 
    // Passing Firmata options through:
    // Circuit Playground Firmata seems not to report version before timeout,
    // lower timeout to reduce initial connection time.
    reportVersionTimeout: 200
  })
});
board.on("ready", function() {
