Issue regarding install libraries in alif devkit board.

[Kashmira549]

Hello,
We flashed micropython in the Alif-Devkit .Can you just help us how we run examples (like blinky.py).
Now we stuck in installing libraries, refer the attached below image.

Because micropython runs properly .so tell us how can we run the below example

`

Blinky example

import time
from machine import LED

led = LED("LED_BLUE")

while True:
led.on()
time.sleep_ms(500)
led.off()
time.sleep_ms(500)
`
Thankyou

mpremote is meant to run at the PC, not at the board. mpremote can be used for various tasks, like running a script, copying files form PC to board or installing files from the library to the board. To run a file called script.py, either

• use AT THE PC mpremote run script.py
• copy your script to the board with mpremote cp script.py :, and then in REPL run import script.

Hi,
We followed the instruction given by you but still the errors are not yet resolve. Kindly check below

There is one more issue that after flashing Micropython in the board, it should be detected as storage, but its not, Cause till where I have knowledge of Micropython, I think we can directly put our file there and then run it.

Kindly guide me how I can resolve this and how I can run any sort of program on the board.

Thank you.

Most MicroPython ports no longer support MSC. It is not reliable.

Please read up on how the MicroPython Interactive Interpreter Mode (aka REPL) works. You can copy scripts to the board using mpremote. You can also use the Thonny editor

Hi,
I read the documents properly and was successfully to save the file on the board. As Micro-Python is running on the board, can you refer me some examples like with sensors, etc. so we can check and understand what we need to change, which libraries are required? As alif's SoC is comparatively new, I am not finding any python examples for it. Kindly guide me through this.

Thank you.

A good source of all kinds of libraries is Awsome MicroPython https://awesome-micropython.com/, although the sheer amount of items may be confusing. Some examples for sensors are as well in the MicroPython lib itself. https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib/tree/master
