Example Usage

from microbit import *
from neopixel import NeoPixel

RGB_RED = (20, 0, 0)
RGB_GREEN = (0, 20, 0)
RGB_BLUE = (0, 0, 20)
RGB_MAGENTA = (20, 0, 20)

# BE SURE TO USE A 5V OUTPUT PIN!
np = NeoPixel(pin16, 8)

# set a few different pixels
np[0] = RGB_RED
np[1] = RGB_GREEN
np[2] = RGB_BLUE
np[5] = RGB_WHITE

np.show()

sleep(1000)

# set all pixels yellow
for pixel in range(8):
  np[pixel] = RGB_YELLOW

np.show()
