About 'cellular' module

Post by ceeeru » Fri Apr 10, 2020 6:05 am

Hello Folks!

I wanna make GPRS connection on A9G module from ESP-12S (ESP8266 inside, as I know, this board: https://github.com/IOT-MCU/ESP-12S-A9-A ... -v1.0/wiki ).

A lot of GPRS-related micropython example starts with 'import cellular' to achieve this, but I can't find cellular module anywhere.
I could attach my board to the wifi, and could download other module (uasyncio) with upip, but upip.install("cellular") doesn't work, can't download.
Anybody can help me, from where can I get this module?
I think, I can take it frozen to the fw too (test.py works fine), maybe I can build my GPRS-attached MQTT-connected GPS position sender for my bike :)

Sincerelly:Norbert

Hi,

I _think_ you might be referring to https://github.com/pulkin/mpy-agps (or something related to that).

This is based on pulkin's custom firmware, which is here -- https://github.com/pulkin/micropython/t ... ts/gprs_a9 -- the "cellular" library is built-in to this firmware (see modcellular.c in that directory).
