FlashCommand for Arduino IDE and BLFlashCommand v1.0.4

Welcome to MyBLFlashCommand ^_^

I is created for upload firmware with the Arduino IDE and BLFlashCommand V1.0.4

Command format:

MyBLFlashCommand.exe --interface=uart --chipname=bl616 --port={com_port} --baudrate=2000000 --buildpath="{build.path}" --projectname={build.project_name} --exe={path of BLFlashCommand.exe}

Command Example

1. MyBLFlashCommand.exe is in the same folder as BLFlashCommand.exe

MyBLFlashCommand.exe --interface=uart --chipname=bl616 --port=COM11 --baudrate=2000000 --buildpath="C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp\arduino\sketches\B723E196EE1AD2E04E7CD18725A76A3C" --projectname=Blink.ino

2. MyBLFlashCommand.exe is not in the same folder as BLFlashCommand.exe

MyBLFlashCommand.exe --interface=uart --chipname=bl616 --port=COM11 --baudrate=2000000 --buildpath="C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp\arduino\sketches\B723E196EE1AD2E04E7CD18725A76A3C" --projectname=Blink.ino --exe="D:\Arduino Learning\AiPi-UNO-ET485\Tools\bflb_flash_tools_v1.0.4\BLFlashCommand.exe"

List of .bin file that required on {build.path} folder:

• boot2_xxxx.bin
• mfg_xxxx.bin
• partition.bin
• {build.project.name}.bin (Ex. Blink.ino.bin)

Editing and installation for Arduino IDE as follows.

*This must be done after installing the BouffaloLab board on the Arduino IDE.

1. Download my_bflb_flash_tools_v1.0.4.zip from the lastest release version on Github, extract the files and copy the folder to C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\bouffalolab\tools\bflb_flash_tools
2. Go to the folder as in step 1 (bflb_flash_tools)
3. Change the folder name from 1.0.7 to 1.0.7_master
4. Change the folder name from my_bflb_flash_tools_v1.0.4 to 1.0.7
5. Copy the platform.txt file and rename it platform.txt.master from C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\bouffalolab\hardware\bouffalolab\1.0.5
6. Edit the platform.txt file as follows.

#------------------------------------------------- -------
## BouffaloLab Flash tools
#------------------------------------------------- -------

tools.bflb_flash_tools.path={runtime.tools.bflb_flash_tools.path}
tools.bflb_flash_tools.cmd=MyBLFlashCommand
tools.bflb_flash_tools.cmd.windows=MyBLFlashCommand.exe
tools.bflb_flash_tools.cmd.linux=BLFlashCommand-ubuntu
tools.bflb_flash_tools.cmd.macosx=BLFlashCommand-macos
tools.bflb_flash_tools.upload.params.verbose=
tools.bflb_flash_tools.upload.params.quiet=
tools.bflb_flash_tools.upload.protocol=uart

tools.bflb_flash_tools.upload.pattern="{path}/{cmd}" --interface={upload.protocol} --chipname=bl616 --port={serial.port} --baudrate={upload.speed} --buildpath={build.path} --projectname={build.project_name}

7. Close and open the Arduino IDE program.
8. Enter boot mode on the board and try uploading the firmware>> The output message must be similar to using MyBLFlashCommand.exe with command line
