This package enables communication between Python and Scratch using the remote sensors feature of Scratch. Remember to enable remote sensors in Scratch! To do this: 1. Go to Sensing 2. Right-click on a 'sensor value' 3. Select 'enable remote sensor connections' Example usage: :: import scratch s = scratch.Scratch() # to make a broadcast to scratch s.broadcast("from python") # to receive an update from scratch message = s.receive() # blocks until an update is received # message returned as {'broadcast': [], 'sensor-update': {'scratchvar': '64'}} # or {'broadcast': ['from scratch'], 'sensor-update': {}} # where scratchvar is the name of a variable in scratch # and 'from scratch' is the name of a scratch broadcast # send sensor updates to scratch data = {} data['pyvar'] = 123 for data['pycounter'] in range(60): s.sensorupdate(data)
