Hi FourDee,
I have a good Software suggestion for DietPi.
WiringPi
It is basically a competitor to RPi.GPIO
WiringPi has a command line utility called ‘gpio’. This makes it possible to control GPIO pins from the command line. Read about it here
Generally WiringPi has a lot more features available, SPI/I2C, Gert board etc.
and it’s more newbie friendly because the code looks a lot like Arduino Code.
Regards
Excellent suggestion Zombie +1. I’ve created a ticket for this requested and I will take a look when I can:
https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/136
Available as a DietPi-Software optimized installation for v103.
YEAH!!
Can’t wait for v103. Hope this update arrives soon.
Everything is done, planned for tomorrow 
No Update 
Maybe tommorow?
v103 is available now. It was released about 1 hour ago.
dietpi-update
oops! I just kept refreshing the version history page in the Forum. Didn’t check via the command itself.
Thanks for the update 
No worries.
As well as providing hosting for DietPi.com and moderating these forums, Pilovali keeps the version history on this forum updated in his free time. Its up there now https://dietpi.com/forum/t/v103/214/1 .
If I might suggest - wiringPI only works for the PI - whereas WiringOP works for the likes of OrangePI - it does need some customisation for the likes of the FriendlyArm units and currently the pin numbers are wrong on all but the OrangePi - modifying with a parameter to set up what hardware is in use would make this INCREDIBLY useful as it has the GPIO tool which can be used by a non-root user - and hence by Node-Red EXEC node. I am running a NEO right now and I have a led flashing on and off using this - I cannot however figure out how to get the I2c running - I suspect something is missing. Not everyone wants to build music centres and so access to hardware as easy as it is on the real Pi would be a godsend.
Hi Pete,
I’ll take a look at getting this compiled. But, we will need end users to test as I have no skills in soldering and GPIO in general. Programmer != engineer, in my case anyway lol
I’ve created a Git Ticket here, will try and take a look tomorrow, but i’ll let you know when its ready for testing: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/563.
