The state-of-the-art BME680 breakout lets you measure temperature, pressure, humidity, and indoor air quality.

Installing

Full install (recommended):

We've created an easy installation script that will install all pre-requisites and get your BME680 up and running with minimal efforts. To run it, fire up Terminal which you'll find in Menu -> Accessories -> Terminal on your Raspberry Pi desktop, as illustrated below:

Finding the terminal

In the new terminal window type the command exactly as it appears below (check for typos) and follow the on-screen instructions:

git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/bme680-python
cd bme680-python
./install.sh

Note Libraries will be installed in the "pimoroni" virtual environment, you will need to activate it to run examples:

source ~/.virtualenvs/pimoroni/bin/activate

Development:

If you want to contribute, or like living on the edge of your seat by having the latest code, you can install the development version like so:

git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/bme680-python
cd bme680-python
./install.sh --unstable

In all cases you will have to enable the i2c bus:

sudo raspi-config nonint do_i2c 0
