2.2.0 - Upgrade to latest Pylint, implement Black formatting

We have upgraded Pylint checks to use the latest version of Pylint and implemented usage of Black Python formatting. This does not change the functionality of the code - it is designed to bring it up to current standards and make it more readable.

• Remove pinned Pylint version number from build.yml file
• Synced .pylintrc file to match Adafruit standard
• Ran upgraded Pylint and applied any changes or new disables necessary
• Ran Black formatter and allowed application of changes across entire repo

For more information on using Pylint and Black on your code, check out this guide on working with Pylint and Black

New custom image badge example.

REMEMBER - 2.0.0 was a BREAKING CHANGE. Import is no longer the same as pre-2.0.0, and the library no longer requires instantiation. It is now:

from adafruit_pybadger import pybadger

Updates since 2.0.0:

• show() renamed to show_custom_badge.
• Added URL to example QR code.

2.0.1 adds a custom badge feature! You can now display lines of text over a color-block or image background, each of a different color, scale, and font. You also have the option to left justify the font. Examples for CLUE and PyBadge/PyGamer are in the examples folder.

New features are:

• badge_background creates a customisable color-block badge background
• image_background allows you to specify a compatible bitmap for the background
• badge_line allows you to create a line of text to display
• show_custom_badge() displays your badge. Required for badge to display.

BREAKING CHANGE - Now includes CLUE support!

THIS IS A BREAKING CHANGE. Import is no longer the same and the library no longer requires instantiation. It is now:

from adafruit_pybadger import pybadger

All code beyond import and instantiation should function the same if library was instantiated as pybadger. To use features, simply include them as pybadger.foo, e.g.:

print(pybadger.acceleration)
pybadger.show_qr_code()

Updates:

• No new features have been added.
• Board type is automatically detected and applicable features are imported.
• Features that are not supported on a given board throw a clear error.
