The internal filesystem
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
If your devices has 1Mbyte or more of storage then it will be set up (upon first
|
||||
boot) to contain a filesystem. This filesystem uses the FAT format and is
|
||||
stored in the flash after the MicroPython firmware.
|
||||
|
||||
Creating and reading files
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
MicroPython on the ESP8266 supports the standard way of accessing files in
|
||||
Python, using the built-in ``open()`` function.
|
||||
|
||||
To create a file try::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> f = open('data.txt', 'w')
|
||||
>>> f.write('some data')
|
||||
9
|
||||
>>> f.close()
|
||||
|
||||
The "9" is the number of bytes that were written with the ``write()`` method.
|
||||
Then you can read back the contents of this new file using::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> f = open('data.txt')
|
||||
>>> f.read()
|
||||
'some data'
|
||||
>>> f.close()
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the default mode when opening a file is to open it in read-only mode,
|
||||
and as a text file. Specify ``'wb'`` as the second argument to ``open()`` to
|
||||
open for writing in binary mode, and ``'rb'`` to open for reading in binary
|
||||
mode.
|
||||
|
||||
Listing file and more
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The os module can be used for further control over the filesystem. First
|
||||
import the module::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> import os
|
||||
|
||||
Then try listing the contents of the filesystem::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> os.listdir()
|
||||
['boot.py', 'port_config.py', 'data.txt']
|
||||
|
||||
You can make directories::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> os.mkdir('dir')
|
||||
|
||||
And remove entries::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> os.remove('data.txt')
|
||||
|
||||
Start up scripts
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
There are two files that are treated specially by the ESP8266 when it starts up:
|
||||
boot.py and main.py. The boot.py script is executed first (if it exists) and
|
||||
then once it completes the main.py script is executed. You can create these
|
||||
files yourself and populate them with the code that you want to run when the
|
||||
device starts up.
|
||||
|
||||
Accessing the filesystem via WebREPL
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
You can access the filesystem over WebREPL using the web client in a browser
|
||||
or via the command-line tool. Please refer to Quick Reference and Tutorial
|
||||
sections for more information about WebREPL.
