The only thing I miss is full detailed library sheet, rest is fine for me

well right, https://docs.m5stack.com/#/en/arduino/arduino_api
is not so well documented for UiFlow it is a bit better

@mati well structured but not so detailed https://docs.makerfactory.io/m5stack/api/overview/

Yee right. But still its still better then noname random China hw workshops.

Community is a good point of M5, with is getting bigger and bigger.

I agree with this argument that there are problems with the platform. Additionally, the store is also in disarray. Look at the included parts in the M5GO Lite and M5Go IoT Kit. They both are same, but there is a $16 price difference(Lite is cheaper). All of it points to one fundamental issue, lack of attention to detail.

Error in what ?
In most cases ppl is posting the problems i proper section + code snap

This topic is about many diff problem...

Efried

@mati its about general product support - any error list in the documentation?

Hmm don't think so.
Error is on the screen ?
Connect device over usb and open serial connection over COM

There should be a debug session with should guide you to fix the problem.

And let us know if this is error on screen. in arduino. Or uiflow or pure micropython.

Whats going on here?
What is this error and where is it being shown?

Efried

@mati after firmware update, no more such error on the M5Stack screen - but a bug in the early night the time changes back to yesterday using RTC, very strange and makes the device unusable for building control....

M5STACK sends error message on screen if your code isnt correct. It has own python interpretator, so it runs anything you upload into it. If your code is incorrect, it will display error message on screen.

What is an issue about RTC? Which module are you using? I've seen Luke worked with RTC and it went smooth, can check his guide on hackster.io?

However, I also want M5Stack team to release full library documentation too, for both py and arduino ports

I know about the error messages as I have spent 2 days writing a library for the NeoFlashC but not encountered this particular error.
Reference is coming just from external supporters

Thrasher

@ajb2k3 you know I really appreciate you work with uiflow handbook, but Im confused why developers themselves wont release detailed sheet with all supported methods and functions. M5stack is a great product, head beyond arduino, but most of us have to use arduino because of detailed libraries support. I want to step forward with micropython but its either writing pre-defined things with uiflow blocks, or develop own libraries which takes some time

otherwise products are superb

Efried

@thrasher the ntp_sync command throws an error (not known) . It is embarrassing that there is no full coverage about functions and parameters of all micropython libraries in the m5stack documentation.

ajb2k3

@efried I'm working on that for my book but its slow going.

Efried

@ajb2k3 Do you have a testing environment to speed uo the exercise?´https://github.com/micropython/micropython-lib/blob/master/unittest/unittest.py
we could make a list of functions of http://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/library/index.html
and then test one by one in an automated setting if there is an eval() function avialable?

ajb2k3

@efried I am in the process of writing a book that has all the UIFlow blocks and Micropython code functions listed with examples.
I am currently behind schedule and so I will only be releasing a Work in Progress English version of the book on the 24th

Efried

@ajb2k3 ok, my comment was going into the direction helping you by automising the exploration of the functionality.

ajb2k3

@efried Ahh, ok.

m5stack

thanks your recommended , we was fix this issues .
