Base Touchscreen Configuration
------------------------------

.. code-block:: yaml

    # Example configuration entry
    touchscreen:
      platform: ft5x06
      id: my_touchscreen

Configuration variables:
************************

- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually set the ID of this touchscreen.
- **rotation** (*Optional*): Set the rotation of the touchscreen. By default this will be set to match
  the display associated with the touchscreen, but this allows more control. Choices are ``0``, ``90``, ``180`` and ``270``.
- **interrupt_pin** (*Optional*, :ref:`Pin Schema <config-pin_schema>`): The GPIO pin to use as the interrupt pin.
  This pin is used to detect when the touchscreen has new data available.
  If not set, the touchscreen will be polled instead of using interrupts.

- All other options from :ref:`Touchscreen <config-touchscreen>`.
