3) To get code from a pull request you can add a git alias to your ~/.gitconfig like [alias] fetchpr = !sh -c 'git fetch upstream pull/'$1'/head:pr/'$1'' then use 'git fetchpr 8000` to create a new branch pr/8000 with the code from PR #8000 of upstream, assuming 'upstream' points to the main micropy...

The event handler can only execute functions, so I cannot use the not operator. Can you elaborate? Under the hood operators are implemented almost just like function calls. Anyway if you really cannot use 'not' nor operators then things become tricky. No operators would mean no +, no == etc? I coul...

The function which inverts a boolean is just since it's Python. There shouldn't be any good reasons why you cannot use it. What are you really trying to achieve?

What you show is about right, but it also depends on build options and how garbage collection is implemented exactly, and so on. So it's not really possible to give one correct answer here. E.g. mp_stack_set_limit() is only needed if you have MICROPY_STACK_CHECK. And you don't have mp_stack_ctrl_ini...

https://micropython-usermod.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ is good foor starters (would indeed be better if something like that is part of MicroPython), and once you can do that you probably know enough to derive the rest from the MicroPython source code

What do you need to know exactly? The documentation linked above is actually rather complete: it shows where to find working example source code, a link to docs showing how to get started from scratch in case you haven't yet, and how to build that example module.

I have seen people put all of their main code in a try ... except block. That can be useful if you want to log that exception or if there's a good chance that if you put the whole thing in a while loop gets something which works and doesn't go out of memory. Otherwise just have the controller reboo...

As part of the software development task am I suppose to dig into the under-lying code of every method I use and ensure that I handle every exception that could be thrown? Not really: you just suppose that every method could throw an exception (because it's Python, and that's the Python way of doin...

See also https://github.com/micropython/micropython/blob/master/.github/workflows/ports_esp32.yml that's the toplevel stuff. Basically: in a shell with access to build tools like make/git you'd run source tools/ci.sh ci_esp32_idf402_setup ci_esp32_build Alternatively if you have the idf installed al...

I'm currently also looking into this, I've build mine now with all the supported ESP-IDF versions and none of them works. I'm wondering if one of them works for you? I'm not sure whether the relesaes do this as well, but following all steps from tools/ci.sh always worked for me; it should because i...
