Overview of this book

The Raspberry Pi is one of the smallest and most affordable single board computers that has taken over the world of hobby electronics and programming, and the Python programming language makes this the perfect platform to start coding with. The book will start with a brief introduction to Raspberry Pi and Python. We will direct you to the official documentation that helps you set up your Raspberry Pi with the necessary equipment such as the monitor, keyboard, mouse, power supply, and so on. It will then dive right into the basics of Python programming. Later, it will focus on other Python tasks, for instance, interfacing with hardware, GUI programming, and more. Once you get well versed with the basic programming, the book will then teach you to develop Python/Raspberry Pi applications. By the end of this book, you will be able to develop Raspberry Pi applications with Python and will have good understanding of Python programming for Raspberry Pi.

Packaging your own Python modules

Now that we have seen how the Python packages can be downloaded and installed, we will look at how they can be created from our own modules. For now, we will only look at how they are packaged and leave out the process of publishing it to a repository.

Packaging a library

We will first look at how to package a library that can be imported by other Python scripts and applications.

We will start with a copy of the calculator module that we created in Chapter 3, Working with Data Structures and I/O.

  1. First, create a new directory named calcpy and move the calculator directory inside it. This calcpy directory will be the packaged library.
  2. Now, create an empty Python file named __init__.py inside the calcpy directory using the following command. This file will tell Python that the calcpy directory should be treated as a module.
    touch __init__.py
    
  3. Next, create another directory called calcpy that contains the calcpy directory created in the previous step. This directory...
