Inkplate¶

Notes on the Inkplate boards.

MicroPython¶

Micropython for all of the Inkplate boards can be downloaded by cloning the repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/SolderedElectronics/Inkplate-micropython.git
$ cd Inkplate-micropython

then the firmware can be flashed directly with esptool:

$ esptool --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --chip esp32 --baud 115200 write_flash \
  --flash_mode keep --flash_size keep --erase-all 0x1000 \
  Inkplate-firmware.bin

under Debian, you may need to use --no-stub, because of #1043168_:

$ esptool --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --chip esp32 --baud 115200 --no-stub \
  write_flash --flash_mode keep --flash_size keep 0x1000 \
  Inkplate-firmware.bin

Then the libraries can be copied to the board from the local copy:

$ mpremote fs mkdir lib
$ mpremote fs cp <board>/package.json :lib/
$ mpremote fs cp <board>/<board>/*.py :lib/
$ mpremote fs cp Dependencies/*.py :lib/
