Maintainer / PyPi packaging

[kyletaylored]

Hey there!

I've been working on a hydroponics system for Raspberry Pi, and using the TSL2591 sensor as part of the setup. Of course I stumbled upon this library to utilize as part of the tooling.

One of my goals is to make the system software easily installable, so over the past few weeks I've been tweaking and updating the library on a forked repo. Part of the work was adding a common function to return all values in an object, and then also preparing it to be published on PyPi so it can be installed using pip (mostly figuring out the layers of setuptools that's evolved over the years).

I've since published a test copy of it (waiting to confirm results this week), keeping you as the author, but I didn't know if this repo was still being actively watched. If so, I'd love to become a collaborator on it, and PR all of the updates I've made. If not, then I would just point the PyPi source back to my fork, and would try to incorporate any changes or issues found on this repo.

You can check out the PyPi listing here (Python TSL2591).

Thanks!

As a downstream user of this helpful library I would welcome a concerted approach regarding collecting contributions in a central source, so 👍
