Adding external libraries via uiflow
-
Is this method valid to replace libraries like
urequests? I found a "bug" on the current implementation and I would like to replace the one that comes with the UIFlow firmware to workaround the issue. Is that possible or in any other way?
Thanks! -
@jesuslg123 If you use a programs like VStudio, Thonny and mu that you can add library directly to the M5Stack

Thanks, for the this project I was using the UIFlow editor with the UI programming language, do you think I can also replace the urequest version that is using this?
Also can you share with me how to upload with Visual Studio? Thanks -
UIFlow is based on Micropython 1.11 so switching isn't that hard.
Check out https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCozgFVglWYQXbvTmGyS739w luke made a useful vid on it.The great thing about UIFlow/Micropython is that you can build most of the program in UIFlow and then switch to Micropython to make final adjustments.
The only issue is that you can't change back to UIFlow after adjusting because the code blocks won't exist for you added code. -
If you use Visual Code you could install this extension

Then transfer your modified library to flash. It would be good to change the name to another one, so that the import function does not load the built-in urequests library. Alternatively, you would have to look in what order and from which locations the libraries are imported.
