Hi there,
Recently I have reported that I am getting some problems with ampy when I pushing files to the esp board.
Today I got the answer on GitHub, from Adafruit, that they no longer want to maintain the ampy project and it can be forked if somebody wants to contine development.
Please read whole discuasion https://github.com/adafruit/ampy/issues ... -456183958
Thanks
Is there Ampy alternative?
Re: Is there Ampy alternative?
Many alternatives, like Dave Hylands rshell. https://github.com/dhylands/rshell
Any quite a few IDE like environments.

Re: Is there Ampy alternative?
I used to have a lot of intermittent problems using ampy with my esp8266s.
Fixed by adding this line to my ~/.bash_profile:
Also, added this to save typing --port each time:
And because my MacBook has multiple usb ports, I added aliases to switch the environment variable:
My esp32 always shows up as /dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART, regardless of which usb port I use.
Fixed by adding this line to my ~/.bash_profile:
Code: Select all
export AMPY_DELAY=0.5
Code: Select all
export AMPY_PORT=/dev/tty.wchusbserial1420
Code: Select all
alias ampy1='export AMPY_PORT=/dev/tty.wchusbserial1410'
alias ampy2='export AMPY_PORT=/dev/tty.wchusbserial1420'
alias ampy32='export AMPY_PORT=/dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART'
Re: Is there Ampy alternative?
I have taken over the development of Ampy for the meantime. That issue you mentioned has been re-opened.
Re: Is there Ampy alternative?
Glad you could take over development of Ampy, devxpy - thanks! It's a useful tool.

Hi,
I'd like to mention that EsPy from https://github.com/jungervin/EsPy is a quite nice all-in-one for Win users and ESP8266 uPy
I like the embedded esptool and filemanager.
For beginners new Thonny release from https://thonny.org/ supports script upload to ESP as well.
so no need for command line typing
Best,
Deedee
