for those wondering where in Pymakr that the "autoconnect_comport_manufacturers" is -- in Atom (I don't know about Visual Studio, though it's also an Electron-based app), go to File->Settings Select the Pymakr package View Code Navigate to .atom/packages/pymakr/lib/config.js look for the autoconnect_comport_manufacturers.default: add your manufacturer to the list (don't break the JSON!) Restart Atom

It's worth mentioning that you should turn off "Extensions: Auto Update" or it'll automatically put 1.1.0 back! This is also probably why it suddenly happened in the first place. I had to to restart VS Code once I changed this setting too, as it still auto updated a couple of times for me, before I did. (Preferences > Settings > Features > Extension Viewlet > Auto Update (can also search for auto update to get to this)

@smokeyspace No problem at all :)

Hi guys, I didn't read everything below in detail, but I just wanted to add that the Pymakr package for Atom has an option for not rebooting after upload :) No need to switch to FTP if the reboot part is the issue. Actually, VSCode is supposed to have the same option, but when testing it just now it shows a bug (it doesn't show any output in the terminal after upload). I'm going to fix that now and add it in the next release. After that, you can add "reboot_after_upload" key to the global or project config file ("reboot_after_upload": false) and it will not reboot the board after uploading or downloading.

Good to hear you sorted that out @theshade! If I have time I might fix Pymakr to look in that folder on a raspi, although I think there are not many people running this setup. (ps Pymakr is open source, so if you want to do that yourself with a pull request, feel free)

This is a new issue (please do not reopen old threads), only on VSCode, we are working on a solution. There's another thread here on the recent issues: https://forum.pycom.io/topic/6809/pymakr-1-1-8-vs-code-failed-to-connect/ In the meantime, you can use Atom + Pymakr. Sorry for the inconvenience Gijs

Hi @Martinnn, empty folders are ignored when uploading. If you put a file in there, it'll upload it. Or you could create one via FTP on the device.

@dan issue persists with 1.0.3

Have you tried re-installing the plugin?

Well I'm also sitting in front of vsc, trying to get familiar with the pymakr plugin. The docs are not that intuitive by far. Still haven't figured out how to create a new project. I think one has to create a new directory on PC, main.py and boot.py, isn't it? What are the next steps?
