Accessing SD card via Pybytes?



  • Sorry if this has been answered - I am new to Pycom boards (currently moving our sensor hardware over from Particle to Pycom) and I haven't been able to find a post on it. I can mount the SD card and access it fine over FTP, but I can find no way to remotely access via the pybytes platform. Is this possible to do? I can't get to the FTP server when connecting over LTE.



  • Great, thank you for your response. I'm glad to hear you're working on it! We currently do a lot of event logging to the SD card so it would be very useful to be able to grab those files remotely, or possibly even tail the last 100 lines or something on them.



  • Hi,
    that's a good point. Currently, if you go to "flash tab":
    devices -> your-device -> flash, it only works with the /flash folder, not with the /sd folder

    But we're working on a better solution, so it will be possible soon.

    You can deploy a release to the SD card, but that's just writing to it. Here's the documentation page about it https://docs.pycom.io/pybytes/releases/new/ There's an example zip archive in the middle of the page.
