The ``I2CDevice`` and ``SPIDevice`` helper classes make managing transaction state
on a bus easy. For example, they manage locking the bus to prevent other
concurrent access. For SPI devices, it manages the chip select and protocol
changes such as mode. For I2C, it manages the device address.

.. _bus_device_installation:

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from
PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-busdevice/>`_. To install for current user:

.. code-block:: shell

    pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-busdevice

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

.. code-block:: shell

    sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-busdevice

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

.. code-block:: shell

    mkdir project-name && cd project-name
    python3 -m venv .env
    source .env/bin/activate
    pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-busdevice

Usage Example
=============

See examples/read_register_i2c.py and examples/read_register_spi.py for examples of the module's usage.
