## PicoGraphics
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can draw on Inky Frame using our tiny PicoGraphics display library.
|
||
|
|
- [PicoGraphics MicroPython function reference](../../modules/picographics)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Examples
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The examples need `network_manager.py` and `WIFI_CONFIG.py` from the `common` directory to be saved to your Pico W. Open up `WIFI_CONFIG.py` in Thonny to add your wifi details (and save it when you're done).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You'll also need to install the `micropython-urllib.urequest` library using Thonny's 'Tools' > 'Manage Packages' or `common/lib/urllib` which contains a compiled `.mpy` version that uses less RAM. You should place this directory in `lib` on your Pico W.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally for examples loading images, you'll need `sdcard.mpy` from `common/lib`. You should place this file in `lib` on your Pico W.

### Random Joke
|
||
|
|
[inky_frame_random_joke.py](inky_frame_random_joke.py)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Load a random joke from JokeAPI.dev and display it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Jokes are rendered into images "offline" by our feed2image service for two reasons:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Saves the Pico W having to process them
|
||
|
|
2. JokeAPI.dev needs TLS1.3 which Pico W does not support!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For bugs/contributions or to complain about a joke, see: https://github.com/pimoroni/feed2image

### XKCD Daily

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Download and display the daily webcomic from https://xkcd.com/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The webcomic is rendered "offline" by our feed2image service since xkcd.com requires TLS1.3!
