Micropython Template Repo

Template for using the micropython pyboard with the BNO055 over I2C. This project uses a pyb with theadding enabled.

Within the Repo

Use

Create a top level file. An example of main.py has been included. Then use the flash.sh script

	./flash.sh <TopLevelFile.py> [-u]

To use the script, pass the top level file as the first arguement. This will save a copy of the top level to the pyb as main.py and also flash the contence of _drivers. -u is used for automatically unmounting the SD card.

Once flashed, the pyb requires restarting. To do this, boot.py defines reset(). This allows for the REPL to restart the board without closing screen or unmounting the SD card. Upon rebooting, the pyb uses the updated files and runs the top level file.
