    Using SD-card on ESP8266 was more challenging. upip.install('sdcard') does not work.

    But ChatGPT truly helped and suggested I find it in Github.

  • using UPip with Micropython to install extra modules - is it feasible?

    I don't think there's a mip list command or something like that. So your best bet is to look at the subdirectories in https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib for a list of installable packages.

    Note that mip installs packages from the https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib repository, which are specifically developed for MicroPython, and I have been using it successfully to install packages like umqtt.simple on a Raspberry Pi Pico W. You can also point mip to sources on GitHub, but this definitely won't work with any random Python package, such as pandas or scikit-learn. MicroPython is just a subset of the full Python.

    Do give it another try if you get a chance; I'd be genuinely interested in hearing about your experience. Be sure to check out the awesome list and micropython-lib if you're looking to fill gaps. There are still many holes but they're rapidly being filled in.

    B(LE) support in MicroPython has been a bit lacking but more support is being added especially since 1.17. I don't have experience with the new lib so all I can say is that you should probably look into aioble library. It's a wrapper over bluetooth library and there are some examples to get you started.
  • Mqtt doesn't work on esp32 - help needed
    2 projects | /r/MicroPythonDev | 16 Apr 2021
    I'm confused because google wasn't finding the mqtt in micropython-lib; https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib because I was searching for mqtt and I forgot that its name is umqtt. The link I gave above is what google gave me but I knew it wasn't the one I was thinking of, the one in micropython-lib, but I sent it anyway. The one I found, above, seems like a better choice since it's been updated recently. The one in micropython-lib was last updated 3 years ago.

    With a fork / duplication in library work as well. Micropython-lib is incomplete and buggy enough as it is, why oh why do we need to split that work up with pycopy-lib as well.
