Add Libraries To Arduino

Arduino Libraries Libraries are files written in C or C (.c.cpp) which provide your sketches with extra functionality (e.g. The ability to control an LED matrix, or read an encoder, GSM, GPS, NRF24L01 etc.). Arduino software is kept flexible users can create there own library or add libraries for new devices. Adding Library to Arduino.

Run arduinodebug.exe, which is found in the Arduino IDE installation folder, from the command line. Sketch Include Library Add.ZIP library. After the IDE crashes copy and paste all the output you see in the CMD window here using code tags ( button on the toolbar). Thanks again for your advice. First, download the library as a ZIP, which is done by clicking the green “Clone or download” button and then clicking “Download ZIP”. Downloading the ZIP file. Once downloaded, go to the Arduino IDE and click Sketch Include Library Add.zip Library. Adding a ZIP library. In the file dialogue windows that opens, locate your.

On version 1.0.2 and later of the Arduino IDE, the 'Libraries' folder is created automatically. On earlier versions of the IDE, you may need to create it when you install your first.

Here we will show you how to install an Arduino library. You should notice that almost all of our library was stored at Github. We will provide Arduino library when a product need a library. For some simple product, there is no need to write a library such as Grove - Button.

Download the Library¶

There are two ways to download a Arduino library.

1.Download in the product page¶

Normally, if a product needs a library, you will find a download library button bar like this below:

Click on the button to start downloading. Seconds you will get a package.

2.Download from github¶

If you need to download from a Github page, then you can click on the Clone or download >Download ZIP button to get the library package.

Add the library¶

Also there are two ways to add a library to Arduino IDE.

1.Add ZIP Library¶

Since you have downloaded the zip Library, open your Arduino IDE, click on Sketch > Include Library > Add .ZIP Library.

Choose the zip file you just downloaded,and if the library install correct, you will see Library added to your libraries in the notice window. Which means the library is installed successfully.

2.Add Library folder manually¶

Sometimes you can not add a ZIP library correctly, because the root folder of the Zip Library lacks of .cpp or .h file, the Arduino can not recognize. Then you can Unzip the zip file and copy the Library folder into the following path ...Arduinolibraries. ....** is the path you setup Arduino. In my case is **D:WorkworkSoftwareArduinolibraries.

Check¶

Then let's check if the library install correctly.

When you add a library successfully, there will be a demo in the Example. In this case, click on File > Example > OLED_Display_96x96-master > OLED_Hello_World to open an example, click on the Verify button, if there's no error, congratulation, the library is installed perfectly.
