Make a screen work without using get_device() from demo_opts about luma.lcd HOT 7 CLOSED

Perfect !!!
Now, everything is working fine !
Thank you for your answer and also for this awesome library. Good job!

@raf59 you probably need to specify amount of degrees rotation instead.

Thanks for your answer @thijstriemstra !
I'm not sure to understand.
According to the doc, "rotate" option can accept only 0, 1, 2 or 3.
How would you specify the amount of degrees rotation ?
For the moment, even without defining a rotation, the screen doesn't turn on if I don't get the "device" object using get_device().

Try removing cs_high=True, when initializing SPI

Oh thank you very much @rm-hull .
I don't know why I added this option. Probably a bad copy-paste.
Now the screen is working but the backlight keeps off.
I think it's due to the backlight-active option. I don't know how to pass this option to the device when initializing it.
The only way I found to turn the backlight on is to manually set the GPIO 18 high.

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
GPIO.setup(18, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.output(18, 1)

Is there a cleaner way to do it ?

oh, you can pass active_low=True|False when initializing the device to indicate whether the backlight is active low or high
