digital_read?

[Max]

Howdy,

I have greg's RAD, and digital_read is mentioned a few times in the
documentation, but the method itself is missing! Is there a fork
somewhere with this implemented yet?

If you want to read a button-like item (doesn't need to be a button) you could declare it as a button and use .read_input -- refer to the examples for exact usage.

[Ron Evans]

You should be able to digital_read like this:

if you have declared
input_pin 8, :as => :my_input

then you can use
my_val = my_input.digital_read
for a more ruby-ish syntax

or
my_val = digital_read(my_input)
to be more like other arduino example code you might find on the intertubez.

Hope this helps!

read_input worked a charm!
