Programming the BeagleBone Black: Getting Started with JavaScript and BoneScript Simon Monk
Publisher: McGraw-Hill Professional Publishing
There's a framework called Bonescript currently under development which can be used for accessing GPIO pins within Node.js. I keep having conversations with programmers who think it strange that I spend most of my days with Web technologies they curse, notably HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. (I haven't tried to use USB networking myself, but the procedure for doing so is explained in Getting started with your new BeagleBone.) The coding language is Javascript, not C. Jan 5, 2012 - The Beaglebone actually has 65 GPIO pins to choose from, but we'll go with the one used by the blinkled.js program that is included with bonescript. Jan 1, 2013 - When I needed to access a USB webcam for one of my projects, I simply downloaded and compiled an open source command-line program that let me save webcam images as JPEG files. OTOH, I didn't have too much trouble getting X Windows to run over real Ethernet with the client on BBone and the server on Ubuntu. The BeagleBone 101 slideshow does a In my next post, I'll show the slick built-in web-based IDE, Cloud9, and how Javascript can be used to control circuits connected to the BeagleBone using the BoneScript library. Specifically, it's node.js, which is Javascript optimized for running on a server, rather than in a browser, by way of some extra libraries. Your BeagleBone comes with a MicroSD .
