Hardware Required

Example Code

Instantiate an object of the GUI class within the UNIHIKER class, and call the fill_clock() function through this object to display the clock and set the parameters. 

from unihiker import GUI   # Import the package
gui = GUI()  # Instantiate the GUI class

# Draw a filled clock at the specified position with the given parameters
# The clock's hands will be positioned based on the provided hour, minute, and second values
# The clock will be filled with the specified fill color
# The clock's outline color is set to (255, 255, 255)
# When the clock is clicked, the lambda function is executed, which prints "clock1 clicked" to the console
gui.fill_clock(x=120, y=100, r=60, h=3, m=4, s=5, color=(255, 255, 255), fill="#57b5ff", onclick=lambda: print("clock1 clicked"))

# Draw a filled clock with a dark style at the specified position with the given parameters
# The clock's hands will be positioned based on the provided hour, minute, and second values
# The clock will be filled with the default dark style colors
# When the clock is clicked, the lambda function is executed, which prints "clock2 clicked" to the console
gui.fill_clock(x=120, y=230, r=60, h=6, m=7, s=8, style='dark', onclick=lambda: print("clock2 clicked"))

import time
while True:
    # Add a delay to prevent the program from exiting and to observe the effects
