Install pigpiod on Raspberry Pi 3 (RPi3) running raspbian buster

Install pigpio

If you're working with the rpi3's gpio, the pigpio library can be very handy.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pigpio 

If you also want to access pigpio from python, install: sudo apt-get install python-pigpio python3-pigpio

Setup pigpiod service to run at boot

  • sudo systemctl enable pigpiod

You can also start pigpiod immediately by doing: sudo systemctl start pigpiod

  • After reboot, verify with: sudo service pigpiod status
