- Mon Apr 20, 2015 5:39 pm #15161 Hello, following on from my little tutorial on using esptool.py instead of the bundled esptool, I have released a helper script that automates pretty much everything.

Its on github, feel free to make any pull request you like.

- Tue Apr 21, 2015 3:34 am #15173 you can replace esptool with esptool.py by changing programmers.txt to use this (and copying esptool.py into tools/)

Code: Select alltools.esptool.cmd=esptool.py
tools.esptool.upload.pattern="{path}/{cmd}" --port {serial.port} write_flash 0x00000 "{build.path}/{build.project_name}_00000.bin" 0x40000 "{build.path}/{build.project_name}_40000.bin"


as far as uploading without the IDE, just use esptool.py.....
