Downloading py scripts from D1 mini

Post by jadro » Thu Apr 30, 2020 7:26 am

Hi folks, I'am new to forum but old in reading discussions here...
My problem is that I can't download python scripts from my D1 mini just upload within uPyCraft IDE.
I use MicroPython firmware. Is this somehow possible to do?

Thanx,
Jadro

You could use another tool such as or even an IDE that connects to microPython:

I also recommend trying MPFshell for a start. You connect to the D1 with the 'open' command then the port where it is connected. For example on windows it is 'open com1' then you can get the files off the mini by simply using the get commands 'get main.py'.

Sometimes mpfshell won't work the best and rshell is my go to for those situations. commands are slightly different but you can look them up.

Good luck.
