Since 1.6.2, the Arduino IDE supports a library manager, to allow easily browsing and downloading libraries from the web. It would be convenient if this library was added. To do that:

  1. a library.properties file must be added to this repo
  2. a request must be sent to the Arduino devs

If you want, I can submit a PR for 1 and take care of 2?

I have to admit I haven't upgraded yet to the latest Arduino yet. Hopefully they solved the namespace problem where the library name (folder) must be unique. Yeah please PR

Add library.properties file
5a9376d 
This turns the library into a proper non-legacyl library and allows the
Arduino IDE to display some additional info in its library manager. This
also opens up the way to allow installing the library from within the
Arduino IDE, if the library's github url is added to the list of
libraries by the Arduino team.

This fixes the first part of issue andrewrapp#2.

@andrewrapp, Could you bump the library version number (in library.properties and probably also library.json) and create a git tag for it? The Arduino library manager needs a tag to include the library (and once it is included, any future tags will automatically cause the library to be updated in the library manager). AFAICS the tag does not need to have any particular format, I suspect the library manager looks at the library.properties file only.

@andrewrapp, any chance you could take care of this (bumping version numbers and tagging)? Then I can get the library added to the Arduino library manager.

Thanks for taking care of the tagging! I've filed the request with Arduino and this library is now available through the Arduino Library Manager.
