# Arduino ESP8266 filesystem uploader [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/esp8266/arduino-esp8266fs-plugin.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/esp8266/arduino-esp8266fs-plugin)

Arduino plugin which packs sketch data folder into SPIFFS filesystem image,

and uploads the image to ESP8266 flash memory.




Tested with the following Arduino IDE versions: 1.6.5-r2,

1.6.6

## Installation

- Make sure you use one of the supported versions of Arduino IDE and have ESP8266 core installed.

- Download the tool archive from [releases page](https://github.com/esp8266/arduino-esp8266fs-plugin/releases/latest).

- In your Arduino sketchbook directory, create `tools` directory if it doesn't exist yet. You can find the location of your sketchbook directory in the Arduino IDE at **File > Preferences > Sketchbook location**.

- Unpack the tool into `tools` directory (the path will look like `/tools/ESP8266FS/tool/esp8266fs.jar)`.

- Restart Arduino IDE. 

On OS X and Linux based OSs create the tools directory in ~/Documents/Arduino/ and unpack the files there

## Usage

- Open a sketch (or create a new one and save it).

- Go to sketch directory (choose Sketch > Show Sketch Folder).

- Create a directory named `data` and any files you want in the file system there.

- Make sure you have selected a board, port, and closed Serial Monitor.

- Select *Tools > ESP8266 Sketch Data Upload* menu item. This should start uploading the files into ESP8266 flash file system.

  When done, IDE status bar will display SPIFFS Image Uploaded message. Might take a few minutes for large file system sizes.
