_Lightweight Instrument Display Interface for Aircraft_

lidia is a Python package for serving an aircraft instruments panel as a web page.

## Installation

Use the package manager [pip](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/) to install lidia.

```bash
pip install lidia
```

## Usage

```bash
lidia demo

# if your Scripts folder isn't in Path:
python3 -m lidia demo

# use other source
lidia rpctask

# show general help
lidia --help

# show help for a specific source
lidia demo --help

# pass the main server arguments before the source name
lidia -P 5556 demo
```

Then open the served page in a browser, by default [localhost:5555](http://localhost:5555).
The controls for showing and hiding elements of the GUI are shown when hovering the mouse in the bottom left region of the page.
