Get large log files from sd card over wifi?

Post by JonRob » Thu Jun 11, 2020 11:44 pm

I searched but no luck, How could I download large files from over the wifi? over 20MB file sizes.
I tried an FTP script but it stalls on files this big. Any ideas?

Hi JonRob,

You could try upydev, just follow the instructions in the README
and then use sync command , e.g.:

Code: Select all

$ upydev sync -f logACC_26_6_2019_0_18_42.txt -s sd
Note:
  • 1) The SD card should be mounted as 'sd'
  • 2) 20 MB is large so expect at least 2-3 minutes with ideally conditions, or even double with the esp8266
I will do a test with the esp32 and let you know the times exactly.

I use...

https://github.com/robert-hh/FTP-Server ... 2-and-PYBD

and am able to transfer files from the file system AND the sdcard much larger than 20MB.
