Hi,
I’m using the RPPAL library/crate to send messages on a i2c bus from a Raspberry Pi. The RPI is supposed to be a leader on the bus and RPPal is fine for that but I know the RPI can also act as a follower sometimes, on a separate bus set on another set of GPIO. With the Pigpio library it was possible to assign an address to it an make it receive messages sent over an i2c bus.
I’m wondering if anyone has successfully got a Raspberry Pi to act as an i2c follower using the RPPal library or if there’s any other solution using Rust. I know RPpal is apparently not made for that, at least such a scenario is not documented but perhaps there’s a trick I could use ?
There is a Pigpio library (or bindings) made for Rust but unfortunately it doesn’t implement the i2c part of it yet, especially the Bsci2c or Bscxfer
(As documented here) and used here in Cpp that gives the possibility to have the RPi act as a follower. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to expand the Rust version of this library by myself... At least, not yet, I’m still very new to Rust
Well, if anyone knows how I can do that with Rust... Any whelp would be really appreciated.
Thanks
