Is it possible to control GPIO pins via Node.js in WebOS

App Development

I am trying to integrate some sensors to raspberry pi 3 with Web OS ose.

Is there anybody have an experience to use GPIO in web os environment?

I am going to use temp sensor via i2c and some digital pin input with npm rpi-gpio and i2c-gpio but I am not sure these are works in webos env.

I haven't done this, but you should be able to build a service using GPIO by following something similar to what was said here: GPIO interface

Hi, @Ji12345


webosce is one of fork project based on webOS OSE. This project has a component to use gpio as a service. You can refer this component.

I'm trying to use rpi-gpio npm module, but it is dependent on native module - epoll. The native module should be built using the webOS OSE toolchain. I tried that but I haven't verified yet.

yeah it should be really easy to add a recipe to the system build to build the native module for you

(is 'webosce' an official thing? is that where i should be submitting bug reports and pull requests? i'm so confused :smiley: )

Thank you Nicolas!
I am going to try it for my project and share the result in this forum.

@ericblade
it is unofficial. it's just one of fork project.
official repo. is https://github.com/webosose.

if you have bug reports and PR, you should be submitting them to official repo.

i was wondering, because there's been pull reqs in several of the OSE repos for 5+ months
