ethernet-encoder-bridge

Small utility to translate lx200 and Stellarium commands into calls to https://github.com/telescopio-montemayor/ethernet-encoder-servo

Installation

Under a virtualenv do:

    pip install -e .

in order to fetch all the dependencies and install it as ethernet-encoder-bridge
