async get_position(*, extra: Dict[str, Any] | None = None, timeout: float | None = None, **kwargs) → List[float][source]

Get the positions of the axes of the gantry in millimeters.

my_gantry = Gantry.from_robot(robot=machine, name="my_gantry")

# Get the current positions of the axes of the gantry in millimeters.
positions = await my_gantry.get_position()

Returns:: A list of the position of the axes of the gantry in millimeters.
Return type:: List[float]

For more information, see Gantry component.

async move_to_position(positions: List[float], speeds: List[float], *, extra: Dict[str, Any] | None = None, timeout: float | None = None, **kwargs)[source]

Move the axes of the gantry to the desired positions (mm) at the requested speeds (mm/sec).

my_gantry = Gantry.from_robot(robot=machine, name="my_gantry")

# Create a list of positions for the axes of the gantry to move to. Assume in
# this example that the gantry is multi-axis, with 3 axes.
examplePositions = [1, 2, 3]

exampleSpeeds = [3, 9, 12]

# Move the axes of the gantry to the positions specified.
await my_gantry.move_to_position(
    positions=examplePositions, speeds=exampleSpeeds)

Parameters:

positions (List[float]) – A list of positions for the axes of the gantry to move to, in millimeters.
speeds (List[float]) – A list of speeds in millimeters per second for the gantry to move at respective to each axis.

For more information, see Gantry component.

async home(*, extra: Dict[str, Any] | None = None, timeout: float | None = None, **kwargs) → bool[source]

Run the homing sequence of the gantry to re-calibrate the axes with respect to the limit switches.

my_gantry = Gantry.from_robot(robot=machine, name="my_gantry")

await my_gantry.home()

Returns:: Whether the gantry has run the homing sequence successfully.
Return type:: bool

For more information, see Gantry component.

async get_lengths(*, extra: Dict[str, Any] | None = None, timeout: float | None = None, **kwargs) → List[float][source]

Get the lengths of the axes of the gantry in millimeters.

my_gantry = Gantry.from_robot(robot=machine, name="my_gantry")

# Get the lengths of the axes of the gantry in millimeters.
lengths_mm = await my_gantry.get_lengths()

Returns:: A list of the lengths of the axes of the gantry in millimeters.
Return type:: List[float]

For more information, see Gantry component.

async stop(*, extra: Dict[str, Any] | None = None, timeout: float | None = None, **kwargs)[source]

Stop all motion of the gantry. It is assumed that the gantry stops immediately.

my_gantry = Gantry.from_robot(robot=machine, name="my_gantry")

# Stop all motion of the gantry. It is assumed that the gantry stops
# immediately.
await my_gantry.stop()

For more information, see Gantry component.

async is_moving(*, timeout: float | None = None, **kwargs) → bool[source]

Get if the gantry is currently moving.

my_gantry = Gantry.from_robot(robot=machine, name="my_gantry")

# Stop all motion of the gantry. It is assumed that the
# gantry stops immediately.
await my_gantry.stop()

# Print if the gantry is currently moving.
print(await my_gantry.is_moving())

Returns:: Whether the gantry is moving.
Return type:: bool

For more information, see Gantry component.

async do_command(command: Mapping[str, viam.utils.ValueTypes], *, timeout: float | None = None, **kwargs) → Mapping[str, viam.utils.ValueTypes][source]

Send/Receive arbitrary commands to the Resource

command = {"cmd": "test", "data1": 500}
result = await component.do_command(command)

Parameters:: command (Mapping[str, ValueTypes]) – The command to execute
Raises:: NotImplementedError – Raised if the Resource does not support arbitrary commands
Returns:: Result of the executed command
Return type:: Mapping[str, ValueTypes]

async get_geometries(*, extra: Dict[str, Any] | None = None, timeout: float | None = None, **kwargs) → List[viam.proto.common.Geometry][source]

Get all geometries associated with the component, in their current configuration, in the frame of the component.

geometries = await component.get_geometries()

if geometries:
    # Get the center of the first geometry
    print(f"Pose of the first geometry's centerpoint: {geometries[0].center}")

Returns:: The geometries associated with the Component.
Return type:: List[Geometry]

classmethod from_robot(robot: viam.robot.client.RobotClient, name: str) → typing_extensions.Self

Get the component named name from the provided robot.

Parameters:

robot (RobotClient) – The robot
name (str) – The name of the component

Returns:

The component, if it exists on the robot

Return type:

Self

classmethod get_resource_name(name: str) → viam.proto.common.ResourceName

Get the ResourceName for this Resource with the given name

# Can be used with any resource, using an arm as an example
my_arm_name = Arm.get_resource_name("my_arm")

Parameters:: name (str) – The name of the Resource
Returns:: The ResourceName of this Resource
Return type:: ResourceName

get_operation(kwargs: Mapping[str, Any]) → viam.operations.Operation

Get the Operation associated with the currently running function.

When writing custom resources, you should get the Operation by calling this function and check to see if it’s cancelled. If the Operation is cancelled, then you can perform any necessary (terminating long running tasks, cleaning up connections, etc. ).

Parameters:: kwargs (Mapping[str, Any]) – The kwargs object containing the operation
Returns:: The operation associated with this function
Return type:: viam.operations.Operation

async close()

Safely shut down the resource and prevent further use.

Close must be idempotent. Later configuration may allow a resource to be “open” again. If a resource does not want or need a close function, it is assumed that the resource does not need to return errors when future non-Close methods are called.

await component.close()
