How to use the Web Workflow

The main code now is for the electron app. There is no guarantte that it will run in a browser anymore. In fact browser security features pretty much preclude that at all, so I finally gave up on that.

Main features

  • List boards connected on USB and web workflow boards that respond to circuitpython.local.
  • List files on a board, with multiple file management features.
    • Create, delete, rename, move files and directories.
    • File editor for web workflow with some simple features.
    • Open in your local editor in USB workflow.
    • Download all files for backup purposes.
    • Upload files in bulk.
  • Library installer.
    • Search for, and select libraries from the bundle to install them and their dependencies.
    • Find and install all the dependencies for a python file from the file list.
    • Auto install for the current code.py (or main.py, depending on which is available).
  • Serial panel for web workflow.
    • Make errors into links to the source file (on web workflow).
    • Make "unknown module" errors into links to install the missing module.

Quick start electron

First, have nodejs installed.

git clone https://github.com/Neradoc/discotool-circuitpython-manager
cd discotool-circuitpython-manager
npm install
./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild
npm start

Build the app with npm run make. Good luck.

You need a board with the web workflow enabled ! See docs here.

The old zip packager

It is in html/bundler.html and should still work the same.
