Python 3 library interfacing OLED matrix displays with the SSD1306, SSD1309,
SSD1322, SSD1325, SSD1327, SSD1331, SSD1351, SH1106, SH1107 or WS0010 driver using
I2C/SPI/Parallel on the Raspberry Pi and other linux-based single-board
computers - it provides a `Pillow <https://pillow.readthedocs.io/>`_-compatible
drawing canvas, and other functionality to support:

* scrolling/panning capability,
* terminal-style printing,
* state management,
* color/greyscale (where supported),
* dithering to monochrome

Documentation
-------------
Full documentation with installation instructions and examples can be found on
https://luma-oled.readthedocs.io.

A list of tested devices can be found in the
`wiki <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.oled/wiki/Usage-&-Benchmarking>`_.

The display pictured below is a SSD1306 (128 x 64 pixels), and the board is `tiny` enough to fit
inside the RPi case.

As well as display drivers for various physical OLED devices, there are
emulators that run in real-time (with pygame) and others that can take
screenshots, or assemble animated GIFs, as per the examples below (source code
for these is available in the `luma.examples <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.examples>`_

Upgrade
-------
Version 2.0.0 was released on 11 January 2017: this came with a rename of the
github project from **ssd1306** to **luma.oled** to reflect the changing nature
of the codebase.

Some core functionality has been moved out to another git repository,
`luma.core <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.core>`_: this has enabled
another project to have a facelift: **pcd8544** has now been reborn as
`luma.lcd <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.lcd>`_: the same API can now be
used across both projects. Likewise **max7219** has been renamed to
`luma.led_matrix <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.led_matrix>`_ so
it can also take advantage of the common API.

The consequence is that any existing code that uses the old **ssd1306** package
will need to be updated. The changes should be limited to altering import
statements only, and are described in the
`upgrade documentation <https://luma-oled.readthedocs.io/en/latest/upgrade.html>`_.
