# microbit

edge-node-manager compatible firmware for the micro:bit

### Getting started

 - Ensure you have [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) installed on your local machine and the daemon is running

 - Sign up on [resin.io](https://dashboard.resin.io/signup)

 - Work through the [getting started guide](https://docs.resin.io/raspberrypi3/nodejs/getting-started/)

 - Create a dependent application called `microbit`

 - Set these variables in the `Fleet Configuration` dependent application side tab

    - `RESIN_SUPERVISOR_DELTA=1`

    - `RESIN_HOST_TYPE=microbit`

 - Clone this repository to your local workspace

 - Add the dependent application `resin remote` to your local workspace

 - Retrieve the dependent application ID from the [Dependent Applications](application_id.png) page on the Resin dashboard

 - Change [line 3](https://github.com/resin-io-projects/micro-bit/blob/master/source/main.cpp#L3) in `source/main.cpp` `#define APP_ID 1234567890` to point to your dependent application ID e.g. `#define APP_ID 540116`

 - Run the provisioning script `$ ./provision.sh`, this will generate the initial firmware `micro-bit-combined.hex`

 - Connect the micro:bit to your computer using a USB cable

 - Copy `micro-bit-combined.hex` to your micro:bit

 - Push code to resin as normal :)
