"""

This module allows the creation of userspace HAL components in Python.
This includes pins and parameters of the various HAL types.

Typical usage:

import hal, time
h = hal.component("component-name")
# create pins and parameters with calls to h.newpin and h.newparam
h.newpin("in", hal.HAL_FLOAT, hal.HAL_IN)
h.newpin("out", hal.HAL_FLOAT, hal.HAL_OUT)
h.ready() # mark the component as 'ready'

try:
    while 1:
        # act on changed input pins; update values on output pins
        time.sleep(1)
        h['out'] = h['in']
except KeyboardInterrupt: pass


When the component is requested to exit with 'halcmd unload', a
KeyboardInterrupt exception will be raised.
