User created animations for BiblioPixel.
BiblioPixelAnimations is installed or upgraded automatically with BiblioPixel as follows:

This will clone the latest code from GitHub and install it to your python path.
A simple example of how to use the animations in this repo.
from bibliopixel.drivers.serial_driver import *
from bibliopixel import LEDStrip
#import the module you'd like to use
from BiblioPixelAnimations.strip import Rainbows
#init driver with the type and count of LEDs you're using
driver = DriverSerial(type=LEDTYPE.WS2812B, num=10)
#init controller
led = LEDStrip(driver)
#init animation; replace with whichever animation you'd like to use
anim = Rainbows.RainbowCycle(led)
try:
#run the animation
anim.run()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
#Ctrl+C will exit the animation and turn the LEDs offs
led.all_off()
led.update()
