BME280 sensor on raspberry pi

I used the Waveshare BME280 Environmental Sensor because there is no soldering included. Just plug and play.

hardware

sudo lsmod | grep "bcm"

Look for i2c_bcm2835 and spi_bcm2835

code change

for you to get the code working, you have to see where sensor is detected from the hardware.

sudo i2cdetect -y 1

The output

     0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  a  b  c  d  e  f
00:          -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

in the main.c file search for ###ADDRESS### to see which lines you need to change.

compile

just run make
