First Script
This script should enable the piglow and make it work
#!/bin/bash
touch /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf
sudo sed -i /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf -e "s/^blacklist[[:space:]]*i2c-bcm2708.*/#blacklist i2c-bcm2708/"
sudo modprobe i2c-bcm2708
sudo modprobe i2c-dev
sudo dtparam=i2c_arm=on" | sudo tee -a /boot/config.txt
echo "i2c-dev" | sudo tee -a "/etc/modules"
echo "i2c-bcm2708" | sudo tee -a "/etc/modules"
sudo apt-get --force-yes --yes install python-dev python-pip python-smbus
sudo pip install piglow -I
reboot
Second script
This script should be the software part think this one is just testing stuff still worth installing since you can see that everything is working the way it should.
#!/bin/bash
WORKING_DIR=$USER_HOME/Pimoroni
if ! [ -d $WORKING_DIR/piglow ]; then
echo "Downloading PiGlow examples..."
export TMPDIR=`mktemp -d /tmp/pimoroni.XXXXXX`
cd $TMPDIR
git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/piglow
cd $WORKING_DIR
mkdir piglow
cp -R $TMPDIR/piglow/examples/* $WORKING_DIR/piglow/
rm -rf $TMPDIR
echo ""
success "Examples copied to $WORKING_DIR/piglow/"
else
if confirm "Examples already exist, shall I replace them?"; then
mv $WORKING_DIR/piglow $WORKING_DIR/piglow-backup
echo "Updating PiGlow examples..."
export TMPDIR=`mktemp -d /tmp/pimoroni.XXXXXX`
cd $TMPDIR
git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/piglow
cd $WORKING_DIR
mkdir piglow
cp -R $TMPDIR/piglow/examples/* $WORKING_DIR/piglow/
rm -rf $TMPDIR
echo ""
warning "I backed up the examples to piglow-backup, just in case you've changed anything!"
success "Examples copied to $WORKING_DIR/piglow/"
fi
fi
echo ""
success "All done!"
echo ""
echo "Enjoy your new PiGlow!"
echo ""
echo "Note: PiGlow currently supports Python 2 only."
echo ""
else
echo ""
echo "Aborting..."
echo ""
fi
try that see if this gets it working removed the raspbian parts in the script so that it installs the software needed for communicating with the piglow its not using any necessary raspian specific software yet they implemented a raspbian check for some dumb reason, try it worst of it fails or works who knows kinda hard to do this with no actual hardware.
if this stuff works then my guess is that the kodi addon for piglow is gonna work also
