scratchClient <\/strong>ist Software, die einen Zugriff von scratch zur Hardware erm\u00f6glicht. Auf dem RaspberryPi ist das Ansteuern der GPIO m\u00f6glich, Lesen von Analogwerten \u00fcber SPI, aber auch Sprachausgabe oder Netzwerkkommunikation.<\/p>\n

The architecture of the scratchClient <\/strong>is centered around adapters. Broadcasts and variables from scratch are routed to adapters; adapters can send broadcasts\/variables.
\nWhich broadcasts\/variables are routed is defined by configuration only and is very flexible. There is a mapping layer which converts scratch names to adapter method names.
\nThe scratchClient<\/strong> is a framework, which communicates with scratch, reads configurations and brings adapters in action. A web interface complements for monitoring.
\nAdapters are small classes with a well defined interface towards the framework. Adapters can control one GPIO line, an ADC, Stepper or alike, but what the do with broadcasts is very flexible. I have build a text to speech interface, for example.
\nNot to forget: there can be multiple adapters active in one setup (4 buttons, two adc, one pwm or whatever is needed).
\nAnd as adapters have no ‘knowledge’ on other adapters, implementing new ones has almost no side effects to the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Having some spare time in the scratch course at school, we did a short ‘computer art project’. A short introduction to the topic was presented, some materials taken from the following web pages:– https:\/\/gigers.com\/blog\/computerkunst-mit-snap-wiederholung-und-zufall\/– https:\/\/monoskop.org\/images\/2\/25\/- Reichardt_Jasia_ed_Cybernetic_Serendipidity_The_Computer_and_the_Arts.pdf– http:\/\/joachim-wedekind.de\/Downloads\/AtlasComputerkunst_redsize.pdf The task for the kids, 7th class, was to use simple geometrical patterns combined with some randomness.

Snap! integration with scratchClient<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\t\n\t
\n\t\t

Some work was performed to integrate Snap! with scratchClient. Here a preview of current results. Snap! is a viable alternative to scratch. Scratch 1.4 on raspberry pi is quite fast, but latest implementation is buggy. Full screen display for example is no longer working. Scratch 2 was based on flash and is not recommended; scratch […]<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\t

Scratch 1.4 on raspberry pi allows to connect with other scratch instances on other computers. This is an experimental feature. This feature is not available in scratch1.4 for linux or windows, not in scratch2. With this feature multiple scratch 1.4 can share events and (global) variables.

There was a question on how to edit scratchClient config files. There was the need to add a Button to a GPIO. Button inputs are handled by a GPIOEventInput-Adapter.

Did you ever want to control GPIO from scratch2 ? Or other sensors connected to a raspberry pi ? The last days I worked on connecting scratch2 with GPIO on raspberry and more.

scratchClient singleton reworked<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\t\n\t
\n\t\t

scratchClient needs to run alone, as a ‘singleton’, on one computer. The reason is that concurrent access to GPIO, SPI or other resources could result in unpredictable results. First approach was to use a pid-file with some logic. At startup, scratchClient writes its own process identification ‘pid’ into a file scratchClient.pid. When another scratchClient is […]<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\t
