Launching pybytes (pybytes autostart set to off)

[HansSanitizer]

I was wondering if there was a command to launch Pybytes manually from within a script, after having the device start up with pybytes disabled.

Hi,
there is, we have function pybytes.start()

You will need to instantiate pybytes object manually. Basically do the steps that this code is doing, when pybytes_autostart is True. https://github.com/pycom/pycom-micropython-sigfox/blob/pybytes-master/esp32/frozen/Base/_main.py#L21-L45

>>> from _pybytes_config import PybytesConfig
>>> pybytes_config = PybytesConfig().read_config()
>>> from _pybytes import Pybytes
>>> pybytes = Pybytes(pybytes_config)

this is how the full output if pybytes_autostart was false and how I manually connected to Pybytes later.
(you can see the message: Not starting Pybytes as auto-start is disabled)
