Re: howto mount sd card in script
Not for my setup unfortunately (Ubuntu 16.10) . It drops back to rshell, but REPL won't connect and I have to ctrl-C out of rshell, restart rshell and then I can REPL and ctrl-D soft reboot. It's not a problem - and it might be related to auto-mounting the SD card, which I haven't disabled yet.

Re: howto mount sd card in script
I did initially use that, but then instantly lost my terminal connection (using rshell) so thought there might be a more subtle way!

howto mount sd card in script
I'm running a script on a pyboard (V1.1) that logs solar data to an SD card. I've decided to (foolishly!) include a check to see if the card is present, and if not then stop the script and print a warning. It works to a point - the switch press works, but I can't find a way to mount the card in soft...

how to import esp8266_i2c_lcd.py
I've just received my huzzah feather esp8266 board and managed to connect through Arduino and now mpfshell. I can connect through web socket and load files, or run simple python scripts directly from the >>> prompt. But I am trying to run Dave Hyland's I2C LCD https://github.com/dhylands/python_lcd/...

Re: howto: Flash MicroPython with nodemcu flasher and connect with putty on Windows
I was also having problems loading micropython on my esp8266 using Linux terminal. Similar symptoms of no response except blue led almost continuously flashing. Followed your guide and now it works! Thank you!
I used gtkterm and esptool.py.

Re: datetime and strftime
Thankyou pythoncoder, that has worked well. Another query if I may - the data as logged to file shows the correct time, when I open it using a text editor or spreadsheet, but the actual linux "date modified" timestamp in a directory listing of the files on the SD card is actually ahead of the actual...

Re: elegant shutdown on battery
Thank you pythoncoder - that worked well. I slightly modified it that defined a function that set a global variable to True, then setup the rest of the code in a While loop to check the state of the variable. def f(): pyb.LED(1).toggle() # activate LED to acknowledge switch press print('Switch press...

elegant shutdown on battery
On pyboard v1.1 using battery only supply, I am running a script that reads the ADC and writes the value to file (on sd card) every second. I would like to occasionally remove the card and read the file contents. Is there a way to shutdown the script and close the file without just pulling the power...

datetime and strftime
Just started with micropython and the forum and looking to log some voltages through the X19 port of PYBv1.1 board running 1.8.7 release. I have used sync_rtc to set the board time, but I'd like to use the time to make the filename unique, like - DD_MM_HH_logfile.dat I've used datetime strftime on (...
