How this is used and how it differs from Arduino. WiringPi allows one use Arduino type programming See Using Geany Text editor C Programming. This video introduces one to using Geany for Raspberry Pi and using it for programming WiriingPi an Arduino like C library to control the RPi GPIO. Geany commands: E:\Arduino\PythonBuildPuppy.py verify "%d\%f"Į:\Arduino\PythonBuildPuppy.See YouTube video Raspberry Pi Blink Demo.
GEANY ARDUINO CODE
Print("\n Failed - result code = %s -" %(presult)) Print("\n Error in build-commands - can't process file")ĪrduinoCommand = arduinoProg + " -" + actionLine + " -board " + boardLine + " -port " + portLine + " -verbose " + projectFile Kind of taste-induced changes but i thought maybe somebody else would like these too:ĪrduinoProg = codeFile.readline().strip() In place of the action-command i moved the arduino-prog line into the build-macro. I tweaked your code a little bit because i felt it more natural to have the switch for verify or upload in the command-line, so one can have for example verify on F8 and upload on F9. Your code works like a charm and made my day!Īfter getting frustrated with ms-"free-but-register"-license-crap while using the execellent plugin for visualstudio and then getting even more frustrated configuring the eclipse-enviroment for arduino - even while eclipse is my main ide at work - it feels like coming home to a cosy fire & hot cocoa using geany and just hit a a key to verify or upload Print "\n Failed - result code = %s -" %(presult) Presult = subprocess.call(arduinoCommand, shell=True)

GEANY ARDUINO MODS
ino files to Geany's filetype_nf and as far as I can tell it only associates my Build mods with. The first part is the path and filename for my Python script (obviously change that to whatever is appropriate for your system) and the second part produces the path and filename for the Arduino sketch. I added a command called Upload and in the command box I entered /mnt/sdb1/SGT-Prog/Arduino/GeanyPythonBuild/PythonBuildPuppy.py "%d/%f" In Geany's Build menu there is an option Set Build Commands which brings up a box where you can enter commands for different actions. ino file to be in a directory of the same name applies.

The Python code and a demo Arduino program are attached. It expects lines 2,3 and 4 to have upload (or verify), the board name and the port name respectively.

This is a very simple Python program with no error checking other than to ensure that lines 1 and 5 have the required data - just to avoid havoc in case it is passed a file that is not intended for it. The Python script is called from Geany which passes the path and filename of the sketch to it. I have written a very short Python program which takes values from comments on the first 5 lines of an Arduino sketch and creates and executes the necessary arduino command line. However the command line is long and error prone and I don't think there is any way to pass all of the Arduino specific values to it from Geany. I discovered that since version 1.5 there is a command line mechanism for Arduino. That got me wondering about compiling and uploading without using the Arduino IDE, which, in turn, got me wondering if I could make use of the Build menu in Geany. However I discovered that the Arduino IDE does not display properly - the menus get scrunched up and become unusable. Recently I have been trying out Puppy Linux - which has a lot of attractive simplicities. I have been using Geany as my external editor for Arduino programming for some time.
GEANY ARDUINO WINDOWS
It may be possible to adapt it for Windows or Mac. This was developed on Linux (Xubuntu and PuppyLinux Tahrpup 6.0 CE).
