jumpstarter-driver-esp32 0.8.1

ESP32 flasher driver for Jumpstarter

ESP32 driver

jumpstarter-driver-esp32 provides functionality for flashing and managing ESP32 devices using esptool as a library. It implements the FlasherInterface from jumpstarter-driver-opendal.

Installation

:substitutions:
$ pip3 install --extra-index-url {{index_url}} jumpstarter-driver-esp32

Configuration

Example configuration:

export:
  storage:
    type: jumpstarter_driver_esp32.driver.Esp32Flasher
    config:
      baudrate: 115200
      chip: "esp32"
    children:
      serial:
        ref: serial
  serial:
    type: jumpstarter_driver_pyserial.driver.PySerial
    config:
      url: "/dev/ttyUSB0"
      baudrate: 115200

Config parameters

Parameter	Description	Type	Required	Default
baudrate	Baud rate for esptool communication	int	no	115200
chip	Target chip type	str	no	esp32

The ESP32 driver requires a serial child driver (PySerial) for serial port access. DTR/RTS control signals and the serial port path are managed through the child driver. Use a ref proxy to share the serial driver with the top-level composite, enabling both j serial start-console and j storage flash to work.

Examples

CLI usage

# Flash MicroPython firmware
j storage flash firmware.bin --address 0x1000

# Get chip info
j storage chip-info

# Enter download mode
j storage bootloader

# Erase entire flash

Python API

# Get chip information
info = client.storage.get_chip_info()
print(info["chip"])      # e.g. "ESP32-D0WD-V3 (revision v3.1)"
print(info["features"])  # e.g. "Wi-Fi, BT, Dual Core"
print(info["mac"])       # e.g. "5c:01:3b:68:ab:0c"

# Flash firmware
client.storage.flash("/path/to/firmware.bin", target="0x1000")

# Enter download mode
client.storage.enter_bootloader()

# Erase flash
client.storage.erase()

# Hard reset
client.storage.hard_reset()

# Serial console via pexpect
console = client.serial.open()
console.sendline("import machine")
console.expect(">>>")
