Inky pHAT, Raspberry Pi Zero

Since the Inky Inky pHAT is essentially a HAT, it can easily be added on top of the Raspberry Pi Zero.

First, I installed the necessary software on Raspberry Pi with pip3 install inky.

And because eInk displays are rather slow to refresh and the clock requires refreshing only once a minute, this can be done through cronjob.

Before we add this job to cron we need to make clock.py executable with chmod +x clock.py.

Then we add a cronjob with crontab -e.

You can download my STL file for the enclosure here, but make sure that dimensions make sense and also opening for USB port should be added or just use a drill and some -hot glue to make it stick in the enclosure.
