Easily deploy your CircuitPython projects

circdeploy

Easily deploy your CircuitPython projects

Deploys the current working directory to a connected CircuitPython device.

I don't like editing CircuitPython files directly from the mounted device folder. The OS may be creating hidden files or your IDE may be saving files frequently which may trigger the device to reboot.

Default behavior: Copies all ./**/*.py and ./**/*.pyc files from the current directory to an automatically detected CircuitPython device, skipping any files in .gitignore. Any remaining ./**/*.py and ./**/*.pyc files on the device are deleted (./lib/* is not deleted).

File Cache

By default, a file cache is used to only copy files that have been changed in the source directory. If a file was changed manually in the destination, or if the destination is different than a previous deploy, then not all files may be copied. You can disable the cache check with --no-cache, or reset the cache for that source with --reset-cache.

 Deploy current CircuitPython project                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                           
 All .py and .pyc files in the current directory tree will be copied to the destination (device)                                           
 All other .py and .pyc files in the destination directory tree (device) will be deleted except /lib/ (disable with --no-delete)
