Quick reference
Below is a quick reference for the DL-7450 SDK.
Schedule tasks
Use the wakeup class to scheule tasks:
from wakeup import Timer
timer1 = wakeup.Timer(task, 60*1000) # schedule a one-off task in 60 seconds time
timer2 = wakeup.Timer(task, 0, 1000) # schedule a task to repeat every second
Dock information
Use the DockInfo class to obtain current dock information:
from dock import DockInfo
info = DockInfo() # obtain a dock information object
info.dock_id() # obtain the unique dock identifier
info.monitors() # obtain the connected monitor details
Dock control
Use the DockControl class to control dock settings:
from dock import DockControl
control = DockControl() # obtain a dock control object
control.set_timezone("GMT") # set the dock timezone
Splashscreen control
Use the splashscreen module to control the splashscreen content:
from splashscreen import Splashscreen, Alignment
import image
screen = Splashscreen() # create a splashscreen control interface
screen.set_background(bg_image, image.PNG) # set the splashscreen background
screen.add_text_box(["Hello, world"]) # create text box in default message position
text_attributes = { # control the position of text
"x": 300,
"y": 200,
"alignment": Alignment.RIGHT
}
screen.add_text_box(["Welcome!"], text_attributes) # create text box with attributes
HTTP requests
Use the http module to perform HTTP requests:
import http
response = http.get("http://example.com") # make an HTTP GET request
