# MegaPi
The [MegaPi](http://learn.makeblock.com/en/megapi/) is a motor controller by MakeBlock that is compatible with the
Raspberry Pi.
The code is based on a python implementation that can be found [here](https://github.com/Makeblock-official/PythonForMegaPi).
## How to Install
Please refer to the main [README.md](https://github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/blob/release/README.md)
## How to Use
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
"gobot.io/x/gobot/v2"
"gobot.io/x/gobot/v2/drivers/serial/megapi"
"gobot.io/x/gobot/v2/platforms/serialport"
)
func main() {
// use "/dev/ttyUSB0" if connecting with USB cable
// use "/dev/ttyAMA0" on devices older than Raspberry Pi 3 Model B
adaptor := serialport.NewAdaptor("/dev/ttyS0", serialport.WithName("MegaPi"))
motor := megapi.NewMotorDriver(adaptor, 1)
work := func() {
speed := int16(0)
fadeAmount := int16(30)
gobot.Every(100*time.Millisecond, func() {
motor.Speed(speed)
speed = speed + fadeAmount
if speed == 0 || speed == 300 {
fadeAmount = -fadeAmount
}
})
}
robot := gobot.NewRobot("megaPiBot",
[]gobot.Connection{adaptor},
[]gobot.Device{motor},
work,
)
if err := robot.Start(); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
}
```
