Python • Re: stop loop with button press--raspberry pi and gpio

$

Hello, I am pretty new to python and coding, so this may be a basic question, but how would I go about exiting a loop with a button press via gpio input?

What I want is once a condition is triggered (will eventually be triggered by sensors, but currently for testing and learning is triggered by a button press via gpio input) a led will flash on and off until a button via gpio input is pressed.

[ ... ]

Thanks to all that help me figure this out!!

I suggest considering shifting your loyalty from RPi.GPIO to the alternative gpiozero Python library. (This is the gpio library currently mentioned by Raspberry Pi in their own documentation: Use GPIO from Python - https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... rom-python )

gpiozero comes supplied with routines that watch for changes in gpio state and let you take appropriate actions.
