16  LoRaWAN/The Things Network, for CircuitPython.
17  
18  Dependencies
19  =============
20  This driver depends on:
21  
22  * `Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>`_
23  * `Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>`_
24  
25  Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
26  This is easily achieved by downloading `the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Bundle>`_.
27  
28  Installing from PyPI
29  ====================
30  
31  On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from
32  PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-tinylora/>`_. To install for current user:
33  
34  .. code-block:: shell
35  
36      pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tinylora
37  
38  To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
39  
40  .. code-block:: shell
41  
42      sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tinylora
43  
44  To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
45  
46  .. code-block:: shell
47  
48      mkdir project-name && cd project-name
49      python3 -m venv .env
50      source .env/bin/activate
51      pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tinylora

73  =======
74  This library was written by ClemensRiederer. We've converted it to work with Adafruit CircuitPython and made
75  changes so it works with the Raspberry Pi and Adafruit Feather M0/M4. We've added examples for using this library
76  to transmit data and sensor data to The Things Network.
