Automatically programming RP series microcontrollers

This is great, and nice write up. Seems like it could be super useful for production programming.

There’s a kind of similar thing for Windows. It looks for the bootloader drive, then automatically copies the firmware from the build folder.

I accompanied it with button.scr on the Bus Pirate that jumps to bootloader when the button is pressed. The work flow is something like this:

  1. Compile firmware
  2. Press button to jump to bootloader
  3. The script sees the bootloader and copies the firmware

Super convenient, but I don’t use it very often.

Edit: forgot the link.
