Hi Ivica, I was working on a small external for MCP3008 using wiring pi, but I'd love to try yours if it is possible. Will it be possible to use it as an external like gpio with vanilla? are you using wiring pi for this? There is nothing in those externals to prevent them from being

Forgot to mention if you use k12 educational module abstractions (you can start k12 mode by adding -k12 startup flag to pd-l2ork in which case your would have UI like this: http://l2ork.music.vt.edu/main/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/pd-l2ork-k12-rpi-003.png), then you can access either gpio or spi

Spi one does not rely on wiring pi. AFAIK wiringpi does not offer spi support but I could be wrong. Hi Ivica, yes it does and it has a C api. It is actually very good and easy to implement. Thanks for all info on the external. I'll check it out as soon as I have a bit of time again…
