See also API in Spanish. Note, the API now uses English syntax as from Turtlebots V17

Butiá can be used in many forms as a consumable service through the network as is the case of the bobot server directly using the bobot library or through various APIs such as C, Java, Python

The Butiá API in Python

Description of the function and various examples.

In a XO, for use from Python or Pippy begin your code with:

   import sys
   sys.path.insert(0, '/home/olpc/Activities/TurtleBots.activity/plugins/butia/pybot')

Now, import the usb4butia library:

   import usb4butia

Create an instance of the class:

   robot = usb4butia.USB4Butia()

Items in 'quotes' uncertain usage and syntax

robot.callModule(modulename, function, params )
robot.close()                    #close communication with the bobot server

robot.getBatteryCharge()         #the battery charge, -1 if no motor connected
