Hello, following on from my little tutorial on using esptool.py instead of the bundled esptool, I have released a helper script that automates pretty much everything.

Its on github, feel free to make any pull request you like.

you can replace esptool with esptool.py by changing programmers.txt to use this (and copying esptool.py into tools/)

Code: Select all

tools.esptool.cmd=esptool.py
tools.esptool.upload.pattern="{path}/{cmd}" --port {serial.port} write_flash 0x00000 "{build.path}/{build.project_name}_00000.bin" 0x40000 "{build.path}/{build.project_name}_40000.bin"

as far as uploading without the IDE, just use esptool.py.....
