Captures everything needed to redeploy the two-display clock (hour on I2C 0x61, minute on I2C 0x63) on a fresh Pi: - Both systemd units (matrix0x61.service, matrix0x63.service) - Deployed Pimoroni script tree, including the local %I (12-hour) clock customization - Vendored upstream sources (ltp305-python, breakout-garden) so restore is fully offline-capable - Boot config snippet enabling I2C - install.sh that wires it all back up idempotently - Inventory doc cross-referencing every live-system path Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Weather example
This example turns your Breakout Garden into a mini weather display combining indoor temperature and pressure data with a weather icon indicating the current local weather conditions.
Pre-requisites
This example requires:
- A Pimoroni Breakout Garden
- A Pimoroni BME680 Breakout
- A Pimoroni 1.12" OLED Breakout (SPI)
You'll need the requests (sudo pip install requests), geocoder (sudo pip install geocoder),
and BeautifulSoup4 (sudo pip install beautifulsoup4) libraries to query the Dark Sky weather page.
Installation
Pop the breakouts into your Breakout Garden, and then run the install.sh
script in the root of this repository with sudo ./install.sh to automagically
install the libraries to run the I2C breakouts.
For this example you'll need to make sure some additional software is installed:
sudo apt install python3-lxml python3-pil
sudo pip3 install requests geocoder beautifulsoup4
You'll need to clone and install the library for the 1.12" OLED Breakout (SPI) as follows:
git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/sh1106-python
sudo ./install.sh
This example assumes that you have the OLED plugged into the front slot on the
Breakout Garden HAT, which should also work with the Breakout Garden Mini HAT.
To change it to the back slot, change device=1 to device=0 on the line
where the OLED is set up.
Running this example
To run this example, type ./weather.py in the terminal
Notes
This example uses Sheffield as the default location, so you'll need to specify your city and
country code at the top of the file, changing the variables called CITY and COUNTRYCODE
to your current location.
