API

gps.deinit()

• Deinitializes the GPS module, releasing resources.

gps = GPS(0, '')

• Initializes the GPS module and sets the timezone.
  • timezone specifies the time offset.
  • formatting specifies the time format.

gps._tf.init_sdcard(33, 19, 23, 20000000)

• Configures the SD card communication pins and SPI frequency, specifying MISO (Pin 33), MOSI (Pin 19), SCK (Pin 23), and frequency (20000000Hz).

gps.altitude

• Retrieves altitude data from the GPS module.

gps.course

• Retrieves the current course (direction of travel) from the GPS module.

gps.date

• Retrieves the current date from the GPS module.

gps.geoid_height

• Retrieves the geoid height at the current position.

gps.hdop

• Retrieves the horizontal dilution of precision (HDOP), representing GPS positioning accuracy.

gps.last_sv_sentence

• Retrieves the last received satellite visibility (SV) sentence, typically used for debugging GPS signal.

gps.latitude

• Retrieves the current latitude value.

gps.longitude

• Retrieves the current longitude value.

with open('/sd/', 'a')
  pass

• Opens a file on the SD card in the specified mode. path specifies the file path, mode specifies the mode (e.g., read, write, append).

passprint(gps.pdop)

• Retrieves the position dilution of precision (PDOP), indicating positioning accuracy.

gps.satellites_in_use

• Retrieves the number of satellites currently in use for positioning.

gps.satellites_in_view

• Retrieves the number of satellites currently in view, representing all detected satellites.

gps.satellites_used

• Retrieves the number of satellites actually used for positioning.

gps.satellite_data

• Retrieves current satellite data from the GPS module.

fs.tell()

• Retrieves the current position of the read pointer in a file.

fs.read(0)

• Reads a specified number of bytes from a file.

fs.read()

• Reads all content from a file.

fs.readline()

• Reads one line of data from a file.

fs.seek(0)

• Sets the file read pointer position.

fs.write('')

• Writes specified text to a file.

gps._tf.is_folder_exist('')

• Checks if a folder exists at the specified path.

gps._tf.is_file_exist('')

• Checks if a file exists at the specified path.

gps._tf.show_directory('')

• Displays the list of files and folders at the specified path.

gps._tf.create_folder('')

• Creates a new folder at the specified path.

gps._tf.delete_file('')

• Deletes a file at the specified path.

gps._tf.rename_file('', '')

• Renames a file from the old path to a new path.

gps._tf.delete_folder('')

• Deletes a folder at the specified path.

gps.speed

• Retrieves current speed data from the GPS module.

gps.timestamp

• Retrieves the current timestamp, typically acquired from satellite signals.

gps.total_sv_sentence

• Retrieves the total count of satellite visibility (SV) sentences.

gps.vdop

• Retrieves the vertical dilution of precision (VDOP), indicating vertical positioning accuracy.
