## Compile and Flash
|
|
|
|
Prerequisite steps for building the nrf port:
|
|
|
|
git clone <URL>.git micropython
|
|
cd micropython
|
|
git submodule update --init
|
|
make -C mpy-cross
|
|
|
|
By default, the PCA10040 (nrf52832) is used as compile target. To build and flash issue the following command inside the ports/nrf/ folder:
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
make flash
|
|
|
|
Alternatively the target board could be defined:
|
|
|
|
make BOARD=pca10040
|
|
make flash
|
|
|
|
## Compile and Flash with Bluetooth Stack
|
|
|
|
First prepare the bluetooth folder by downloading Bluetooth LE stacks and headers:
|
|
|
|
./drivers/bluetooth/download_ble_stack.sh
|
|
|
|
If the Bluetooth stacks has been downloaded, compile the target with the following command:
|
|
|
|
make BOARD=pca10040 SD=s132
|
|
|
|
The **make sd** will trigger a flash of the bluetooth stack before that application is flashed. Note that **make sd** will perform a full erase of the chip, which could cause 3rd party bootloaders to also be wiped.
|
|
|
|
make BOARD=pca10040 SD=s132 sd
|
|
|
|
Note: further tuning of features to include in bluetooth or even setting up the device to use REPL over Bluetooth can be configured in the `bluetooth_conf.h`.
|
|
|
|
## Compile with frozen modules
|
|
|
|
Frozen modules are Python modules compiled to bytecode and added to the firmware
|
|
image, as part of MicroPython. They can be imported as usual, using the `import`
|
|
statement. The advantage is that frozen modules use a lot less RAM as the
|
|
bytecode is stored in flash, not in RAM like when importing from a filesystem.
|
|
Also, frozen modules are available even when no filesystem is present to import
|
|
from.
|
|
|
|
To use frozen modules, put them in a directory (e.g. `freeze/`) and supply
|
|
`make` with the given directory. For example:
|
|
|
|
make BOARD=pca10040 FROZEN_MPY_DIR=freeze
|
|
|
|

|
## Segger Targets
|
|
|
|
Install the necessary tools to flash and debug using Segger:
|
|
|
|
[JLink Download](https://www.segger.com/downloads/jlink#)
|
|
|
|
[nrfjprog linux-32bit Download](https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/nordic/download_resource/52615/16/95882111/97746)
|
|
|
|
[nrfjprog linux-64bit Download](https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/nordic/download_resource/51386/21/77886419/94917)
|
|
|
|
[nrfjprog osx Download](https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/nordic/download_resource/53402/12/97293750/99977)
|
|
|
|
[nrfjprog win32 Download](https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/nordic/download_resource/33444/40/22191727/53210)
|
|
|
|
note: On Linux it might be required to link SEGGER's `libjlinkarm.so` inside nrfjprog's folder.
|
|
|
|
## PyOCD/OpenOCD Targets
|
|
|
|
Install the necessary tools to flash and debug using OpenOCD:
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install openocd
|
|
sudo pip install pyOCD
|
|
|
|
## DFU Targets
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install build-essential libffi-dev pkg-config gcc-arm-none-eabi git python python-pip
|
|
git clone https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_nRF52_Arduino.git
|
|
cd Adafruit_nRF52_Arduino/tools/nrfutil-0.5.2/
|
|
sudo pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
sudo python setup.py install
|
|
|
|
**make flash** and **make sd** will not work with DFU targets. Hence, **dfu-gen** and **dfu-flash** must be used instead.
|
|
* dfu-gen: Generates a Firmware zip to be used by the DFU flash application.
|
|
* dfu-flash: Triggers the DFU flash application to upload the firmware from the generated Firmware zip file.
|
|
|
|
Example on how to generate and flash feather52 target:
|
|
|
|
make BOARD=feather52 SD=s132
|
|
make BOARD=feather52 SD=s132 dfu-gen
|
|
make BOARD=feather52 SD=s132 dfu-flash
|
|
|
|
## Bluetooth LE REPL
|
|
|
|
The port also implements a BLE REPL driver. This feature is disabled by default, as it will deactivate the UART REPL when activated. As some of the nRF devices only have one UART, using the BLE REPL free's the UART instance such that it can be used as a general UART peripheral not bound to REPL.
|
|
|
|
The configuration can be enabled by editing the `bluetooth_conf.h` and set `MICROPY_PY_BLE_NUS` to 1.
|
|
|
|
When enabled you have different options to test it:
|
|
* [NUS Console for Linux](https://github.com/tralamazza/nus_console) (recommended)
|
|
* [WebBluetooth REPL](https://glennrub.github.io/webbluetooth/micropython/repl/) (experimental)
|
|
|
|
Other:
|
|
* nRF UART application for IPhone/Android
|
|
|
|
WebBluetooth mode can also be configured by editing `bluetooth_conf.h` and set `BLUETOOTH_WEBBLUETOOTH_REPL` to 1. This will alternate advertisement between Eddystone URL and regular connectable advertisement. The Eddystone URL will point the phone or PC to download [WebBluetooth REPL](https://glennrub.github.io/webbluetooth/micropython/repl/) (experimental), which subsequently can be used to connect to the Bluetooth REPL from the PC or Phone browser.
