# MPyTools

MicroPython tools for Pharo Smalltalk

[![Build Status](https://app.travis-ci.com/EiichiroIto/MPyTools.svg?branch=master)](https://app.travis-ci.com/EiichiroIto/MPyTools)

MPyTools is a tool for developing application of MicroPython devices using Pharo Smalltalk.

It consists of following tools.

* Communication tool which interacts with MicroPython devices.

* Generator tool which generates MicroPython codes from Smalltalk class.

You can make MicroPython application using Pharo System Browser, and then check it by transfering it to MicroPython device directly.

## Acknowledgement

This project is inspired from MicroSqueak and rewrited some codes in Pharo Smalltalk. (https://web.media.mit.edu/~jmaloney/microsqueak/)

# MPyTool

MPyTool communicates with MicroPython devices through a serial port. It sends MicroPython expression and receive its response, also it supports for uploading and downloading files.

## Usage

```Smalltalk

| mp |

mp := MPyTool new.

mp useSerial.

(mp evaluate: '1+2') inspect.

```

```Smalltalk

MPyTool new

  useSerial;

  upload: 'print("Hello")' fileNamed: 'main.py'.

```

# MicroPythonCoder

MicroPythonCoder generates MicroPython code from a method or methods of a class.

For example, a code in Smalltalk,

```Smalltalk

helloWorld

  self isFunction: true.

  self print: 'Hello, World!'

```

It is converted into the following MicroPython code.

```Python

def hello_world():

  print("Hello, World!")

```

There are several types of devices using MicroPython. Currently MicroPythonCoder supports only ESP8266/ESP32 and micro:bit devices. See samples.

## Usage

To get MicroPython code of a class, send #asMicroPython message to the class.

```smalltalk

ESP8266Sample asMicroPython

```

To execute whole the class in a device,

```smalltalk

MPyTool new

  useSerial;

  execute: ESP8266Sample asMicroPython.

```

To store the code as a 'main.py' file,

```smalltalk

MPyTool new

  useSerial;

  upload: ESP8266Sample asMicroPython fileNamed: 'main.py'.

```
