2.1.0

Adds a function set_led() to the library to control the built-in LED for the r503 sensor.


def set_led(self, color=1, mode=3, speed=0x80, cycles=0):
"""LED function -- only for R503 Sensor.
Parameters: See User Manual for full details
color: 1=red, 2=blue, 3=purple
mode: 1-breathe, 2-flash, 3-on, 4-off, 5-fade_on, 6-fade-off
speed: animation speed 0-255
cycles: numbe of time to repeat 0=infinite or 1-255
Returns the packet error code or success"""

Added examples for r503 that demonstrate some led functions.

Details regarding the LED control are in the Users Manual

2.0.0

Added finger_search() function and modified examples to use it instead of finger_fast_search().
The finger_fast_search does not work on the R503 Panel Mount Fingerprint Sensor.
Modified the examples to use finger_search() so they work with both the R503 Panel Mount FingerPrint Sensor (PID 4651) as well as the Fingerprint Sensor (PID 751).
Also added access to attributes for "system_id" and "status_register".

1.2.0

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](https://learn.adafruit.com/improve-your-code-with-pylint)
