The state-of-the-art BME680 breakout lets you measure temperature, pressure, humidity, and indoor air quality.
## Installing
### Full install (recommended):
We've created an easy installation script that will install all pre-requisites and get your BME680
up and running with minimal efforts. To run it, fire up Terminal which you'll find in Menu -> Accessories -> Terminal
on your Raspberry Pi desktop, as illustrated below:

In the new terminal window type the command exactly as it appears below (check for typos) and follow the on-screen instructions:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/bme680-python
cd bme680-python
./install.sh
```
**Note** Libraries will be installed in the "pimoroni" virtual environment, you will need to activate it to run examples:
```
source ~/.virtualenvs/pimoroni/bin/activate
```
### Development:
If you want to contribute, or like living on the edge of your seat by having the latest code, you can install the development version like so:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/bme680-python
cd bme680-python
./install.sh --unstable
```
In all cases you will have to enable the i2c bus:
```
sudo raspi-config nonint do_i2c 0
```
