als-alire-index VS BBS-BBB-Ada

Take a look at my als-alire-index as example.

🗂 created a dedicated Alire index to build Ada Language Server 23.0.1

I hope, many crates from the community index should work. For example, I've built Ada Language Server with these crates.

I had a similar problem trying to use them using Ada. The solution that I found used the /sys filesystem (though u/excogitatio below says that that's deprecated). The specific paths that I found for the pins are in https://github.com/BrentSeidel/BBS-BBB-Ada/blob/master/src/bbs-embed-rpi.ads and how I used them is in https://github.com/BrentSeidel/BBS-BBB-Ada/blob/master/src/linux/bbs-embed-gpio-linux.adb. If you're willing to wade through Ada code, you may find other interesting things in that project.

I picked up a MCP4725 I2C DAC and an ADS1015 I2C ADC from AdaFruit and plan to write drivers for them for my personal driver library (as a side note, if anyone wants to move any of these to the Ada Driver Library, feel free). I am thinking of using these to add another module to my Raspberry Pi Mainframe Simulator so that I can have some knobs and a meter doing important looking things.
