Problems with Pymakr in VS code

[nervencid]

Hello:

I'm new and i tried to install Pymakr in atom and worked fine for now, but when i tried to install it on VSCODE, it didn't worked, the device is not connecting and it crashes.

I got in the console this:

Connecting on 192.168.4.1...
Connection error: Error: Login timed out

Where can i report this bug?

Thank you

Hi @nervencid, can you provide any info on how it crashes? The 'Connection error: Error: Login timed out' is not a crash, it's that you are not connected to the boards wifi. If you want to connect over usb, I'd recommend enabling auto_connect in the general settings.

@ralph Thank you for your answer:

The autoconnect via USB is enabled, and i am connecting via USB it works fine on atom, but it is not connecting on VScode

@nervencid Did you set auto_connect in the global settings? This setting is not allowed in the project settings, so it's ignored. Which would result in the message you're seeing.

This is my project pymakr.conf in vscode

{
    "address": "COM6",
    "username": "micro",
    "password": "python",
    "open_on_start": true,
    "safe_boot_on_upload": true,
    "sync_folder": "wipy"
}

If you are using USB you are going to want to fill in the COM portion. I haven't used the atom IDE yet, not sure if it is smarter.

@ralph Hello and thank you for the answer:

How can i find the configurations for VS Code¡

Thank you

[Ralph]

@nervencid On the bottom there's a button called 'all commands' which opens a list. In the list click 'global settings'. There you can change the 'auto_connect' setting.

@ralph Hello and thank you for the answer, but the autoconnect is already in false, this is te configuration settings on VS Code:

{
	"address": "192.168.4.1",
	"username": "micro",
	"password": "python",
	"sync_folder": "",
	"open_on_start": true,
	"safe_boot_on_upload": false,
	"sync_file_types": "py,txt,log,json,xml,html,js,css,mpy",
	"ctrl_c_on_connect": false,
	"sync_all_file_types": false,
	"auto_connect": false,
	"py_ignore": [],
	"fast_upload": false
}

@nervencid With autoconnect to false, it indeed tries to connect to the address 192.168.4.1, so the output you posted is as expected. To connect you can either:

• connect to the devices wifi and klik connect again, or:
• change the auto_connect setting to true, or:
• set the address setting to the correct comport (you can find it using the 'list serialports' command)
