A module and utility to flash Python onto the BBC micro:bit.
Project description
A utility for flashing the BBC micro:bit with MicroPython.
This module provides two services:
A library of functions to programatically create a hex file and flash it onto a BBC micro:bit.
A command line utility called uflash that takes a path to a Python file, and an optional target location then turns the source Python file into a hex file and copies it to either the target or the discovered MICROBIT device.
There are several operations required:
Encode the Python into hex format.
Embed the resulting hexified Python into the MicroPython runtime hex.
Discover the connected micro:bit.
Copy the resulting hex onto the micro:bit, thus flashing the device.
