unix-cpy was originally written to get semantic equivalent with CPython without writing functional tests. When writing the initial implementation of uPy it was a long way between lexer and functional tests, so the half-way test was to make sure that the bytecode was correct. The idea was that if the uPy bytecode matched CPython 1-1 then uPy would be proper Python if the bytecodes acted correctly. And having matching bytecode meant that it was less likely to miss some deep subtlety in the Python semantics that would require an architectural change later on. But that is all history and it no longer makes sense to retain the ability to output CPython bytecode, because: 1. It outputs CPython 3.3 compatible bytecode. CPython's bytecode changes from version to version, and seems to have changed quite a bit in 3.5. There's no point in changing the bytecode output to match CPython anymore. 2. uPy and CPy do different optimisations to the bytecode which makes it harder to match. 3. The bytecode tests are not run. They were never part of Travis and are not run locally anymore. 4. The EMIT_CPYTHON option needs a lot of extra source code which adds heaps of noise, especially in compile.c. 5. Now that there is an extensive test suite (which tests functionality) there is no need to match the bytecode. Some very subtle behaviour is tested with the test suite and passing these tests is a much better way to stay Python-language compliant, rather than trying to match CPy bytecode.

The Micro Python project
|
|
========================

|
|
|
|
This is the Micro Python project, which aims to put an implementation
|
|
of Python 3.x on microcontrollers and small embedded systems.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: this project is in beta stage and is subject to changes of the
|
|
code-base, including project-wide name changes and API changes.
|
|
|
|
Micro Python implements the entire Python 3.4 syntax (including exceptions,
|
|
"with", "yield from", etc.). The following core datatypes are provided:
|
|
str (including basic Unicode support), bytes, bytearray, tuple, list, dict,
|
|
set, frozenset, array.array, collections.namedtuple, classes and instances.
|
|
Builtin modules include sys, time, and struct. Note that only subset of
|
|
Python 3.4 functionality implemented for the data types and modules.
|
|
|
|
See the repository www.github.com/micropython/pyboard for the Micro
|
|
Python board, the officially supported reference electronic circuit board.
|
|
|
|
Major components in this repository:
|
|
- py/ -- the core Python implementation, including compiler, runtime, and
|
|
core library.
|
|
- unix/ -- a version of Micro Python that runs on Unix.
|
|
- stmhal/ -- a version of Micro Python that runs on the Micro Python board
|
|
with an STM32F405RG (using ST's Cube HAL drivers).
|
|
- minimal/ -- a minimal Micro Python port. Start with this if you want
|
|
to port Micro Python to another microcontroller.
|
|
|
|
Additional components:
|
|
- bare-arm/ -- a bare minimum version of Micro Python for ARM MCUs. Used
|
|
mostly to control code size.
|
|
- teensy/ -- a version of Micro Python that runs on the Teensy 3.1
|
|
(preliminary but functional).
|
|
- pic16bit/ -- a version of Micro Python for 16-bit PIC microcontrollers.
|
|
- cc3200/ -- a version of Micro Python that runs on the CC3200 from TI.
|
|
- esp8266/ -- an experimental port for ESP8266 WiFi modules.
|
|
- tests/ -- test framework and test scripts.
|
|
- tools/ -- various tools, including the pyboard.py module.
|
|
- examples/ -- a few example Python scripts.
|
|
- docs/ -- official documentation in RST format.
|
|
|
|
"make" is used to build the components, or "gmake" on BSD-based systems.
|
|
You will also need bash and Python (at least 2.7 or 3.3).
|
|
|
|
The Unix version
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
The "unix" port requires a standard Unix environment with gcc and GNU make.
|
|
x86 and x64 architectures are supported (i.e. x86 32- and 64-bit), as well
|
|
as ARM and MIPS. Making full-featured port to another architecture requires
|
|
writing some assembly code for the exception handling and garbage collection.
|
|
Alternatively, fallback implementation based on setjmp/longjmp can be used.
|
|
|
|
To build (*):
|
|
|
|
$ cd unix
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
Then to give it a try:
|
|
|
|
$ ./micropython
|
|
>>> list(5 * x + y for x in range(10) for y in [4, 2, 1])
|
|
|
|
Run complete testsuite:
|
|
|
|
$ make test
|
|
|
|
Unix version comes with a builtin package manager called upip, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
$ ./micropython -m upip install micropython-pystone
|
|
$ ./micropython -m pystone
|
|
|
|
Browse available modules on
|
|
[PyPI](https://pypi.python.org/pypi?%3Aaction=search&term=micropython).
|
|
Standard library modules come from
|
|
[micropython-lib](https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib) project.
|
|
|
|
(*) Debian/Ubuntu/Mint derivative Linux distros will require build-essentials,
|
|
libffi-dev and pkg-config packages installed. If you have problems with some
|
|
dependencies, they can be disabled in unix/mpconfigport.mk .
|
|
|
|
The STM version
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
The "stmhal" port requires an ARM compiler, arm-none-eabi-gcc, and associated
|
|
bin-utils. For those using Arch Linux, you need arm-none-eabi-binutils and
|
|
arm-none-eabi-gcc packages from the AUR. Otherwise, try here:
|
|
https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded
|
|
|
|
To build:
|
|
|
|
$ cd stmhal
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
You then need to get your board into DFU mode. On the pyboard, connect the
|
|
3V3 pin to the P1/DFU pin with a wire (on PYBv1.0 they are next to each other
|
|
on the bottom left of the board, second row from the bottom).
|
|
|
|
Then to flash the code via USB DFU to your device:
|
|
|
|
$ make deploy
|
|
|
|
You will need the dfu-util program, on Arch Linux it's dfu-util-git in the
|
|
AUR. If the above does not work it may be because you don't have the
|
|
correct permissions. Try then:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo dfu-util -a 0 -d 0483:df11 -D build-PYBV10/firmware.dfu
|
|
|
|
Building the documentation locally
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Install Sphinx, and optionally (for the RTD-styling), sphinx_rtd_theme,
|
|
preferably in a virtualenv:
|
|
|
|
pip install sphinx
|
|
pip install sphinx_rtd_theme
|
|
|
|
In `micropython/docs`, build the docs:
|
|
|
|
make MICROPY_PORT=<port_name> BUILDDIR=<port_name>/build html
|
|
|
|
Where `<port_name>` can be `unix`, `pyboard`, `wipy` or `esp8266`.
|
|
|
|
You'll find the index page at `micropython/docs/<port_name>/build/html/index.html`.
