# Spark
The Spark Core contains a Wi-Fi connected microcontroller. Once it connects to a Wi-Fi network, it automatically connects with a central server (the "Spark Cloud") and stays connected so it can be controlled from external systems, such as a Gobot program. To run gobot programs please make sure you are running default tinker firmware on the Spark Core.
For more info about the Spark platform click [here](https://www.spark.io/)
## How to Install
Installing Gobot with Spark support is pretty easy.
```
go get github.com/hybridgroup/gobot && go install github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/platforms/spark
```
## How to Use
```go
package main
import (
"time"
"github.com/hybridgroup/gobot"
"github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/platforms/gpio"
"github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/platforms/spark"
)
func main() {
gbot := gobot.NewGobot()
sparkCore := spark.NewSparkCoreAdaptor("spark", "device_id", "access_token")
led := gpio.NewLedDriver(sparkCore, "led", "D7")
work := func() {
gobot.Every(1*time.Second, func() {
led.Toggle()
})
}
robot := gobot.NewRobot("spark",
[]gobot.Connection{sparkCore},
[]gobot.Device{led},
work,
)
gbot.AddRobot(robot)
gbot.Start()
}
```
