PyCharm installation of MicroPython via Anaconda
Posted: Thu Feb 11, 2021 10:09 am
I am new to micro:bit & even newer to micropython!
I am a regular user of PyCharm which is my preferred IDE so have tried to setup micropython focusing on micro:bit using PyCharm.
My preferred environment manager is Anaconda using which I have set-up python 3.6 environment (as I believe this is currently what microphython uses/based on) I've been following this https://mryslab.github.io/pseudo-microbit/ tutorial installing pseudo-microbit via within the environment. I have also installed the MicroPython plugin for PyCharm.
I've experienced several issues:
1) on my mac directory doesn't contain . There are probably other files it doesn't contain however I haven't discovered them yet. It could be that I don't understand the work flow and there is now need for this file to exist locally?
2) I have defined uflash as an external tool, within PyCharm. PyCharm seems quite happy and doesn't report errors when flashing. However the micro:bit seems to get partially programmed and then reports with an unhappy face!
All wise/random thoughts gratefully accepted.
