Re: Anyone recommending a good IDE?

I use Atom with the remote-ftp and linter-flake8 packages. I run the Lobo firmware with built-in FTP server. The remote-ftp package automatically syncs files in Atom to the ESP32. I adjust the flake8 rules as needed for the differences between Python and MicroPython. The same strategy should also w...

Re: Saving power

Hi all, is there an update on this? I can see many applications that do either not need wifi at all, or only for a small fraction of their duty cycle, so reducing power by the various sleep modes does not really help. Think of a sensor that will collect data over an hour or so and post only averages...

shiftOut Method?

Dear all: I am trying to control a AD9851 DDS [1] with a MicroPython board. Now, is there a function for sending byte data via a data and clock pin, same as the following Arduino function: https://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/ShiftOut ? Basically, what I need to do is sending a 40 bit value to a chip...

Re: Development Environment and Workflow for MicroPython

...Side comment to the pycom.io people: It would be nice to add a short note about your decision to stop development of PyMakr prominently in the README of the Github repository at https://github.com/pycom/Pymakr. It does not make sense to have people spend their time with a dead tool... I suggest ...

Re: Development Environment and Workflow for MicroPython

Pymak Appr: https://forum.pycom.io/topic/635/pymakr-time-of-death-09-02/46 The Pymakr App is replaced by a plugin for Atom etc. https://forum.pycom.io/topic/1026/pymakr-atom-plugin-released/49 Thanks! They also promise a plugin for Sublime Text; I will hope for that. Side comment to the pycom.io pe...

Re: Development Environment and Workflow for MicroPython

One more question: Someone said that PyMakr was "abandoned" - is this true? If so - are there any official references to support this?

Re: Development Environment and Workflow for MicroPython

Great - so my Sublime plugin will just have to wrap rsync into a Sublime command + maybe keyboard shortcut.

Re: Development Environment and Workflow for MicroPython

Thanks! Having a single CLI like rshell helps a lot to solve this problem in a cross-platform way that will work on many if not all MicroPython boards. If I find the time, the next thing I will try to to is develop a plug-in for the Sublime editor that will offer two functions: 1. Sync all local fil...

Re: Development Environment and Workflow for MicroPython

Thanks! I will experiment with rshell. Ideal would be a plugin for the Sublime editor so that one can automatically sync files on the MicroPython device, similar to the available ones for plain FTP. One could then simply save a file locally and have it transferred to the uP device in parallel. The c...
