PyREPLforSPIKE

A web-based PyREPL interface for MicroPython microprocessors

For a live demo, visit: https://pyrepl.web.app/
GitHub Pages Version: https://tuftsceeo.github.io/PyREPLforSPIKE/build/index.html


Description

PyREPL for SPIKE is a web-based platform to interact with the REPL on a LEGO SPIKE Prime Hub. The application allows users to write MicroPython directly to a SPIKE Hub and log output to a live console using a graphical user interface.


Using/Modifying PyREPL

How to use PyREPL

  1. Open the PyREPL Web App on a supported web browser.
    • Supported browsers: Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera.
  2. Connect your MicroPython device to PyREPL by clicking the red button on the upper right hand side of the window.
    • The application currently supports wire (USB) and some bluetooth connections.
  3. Write MicroPython code using the text editor on the left half of the screen.
  4. Run your code on the connected device using the blue play button on the upper right hand side of the window.

PyREPL Tutorial


How to modify PyREPL:

Note: PyREPL was built using React

  1. Download Code
  2. In a command prompt/terminal, change the working directory (cd) to the PyREPLforSPIKE directory. For example, if saved the code inside your Downloads folder, the command would be cd Downloads/PyREPLforSPIKE
  3. Run npm install. Requires NodeJS. Run npm --version to check if you have NodeJS installed.
  4. To start the development server, run npm start. You're now ready to start editing the project!
  5. When you have a production ready version ready to be published run npm run build to make a static production build.
