Previously the only other way of determining whether the Vfs has been mounted read-write or read-only appears to be to attempt a write operation and detect a possible OSError. It wasn't possible for the user code to keep track of the state of the state since the boot VM has to decide whether to (re)mount read-write or read-only, but can't (easily) pass this information on to the runtime VM.

This package contains the "stubs", or type definitions for CircuitPython. With some advanced editors and other tools, this information can be identify TypeErrors, AttributeErrors, and other problems before you deploy your code to a device and can even help autocomplete your code. .. |Build Status| image:: https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/workflows/Build%20CI/badge.svg :target: https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/actions?query=branch%3Amain .. |Doc Status| image:: https://readthedocs.org/projects/circuitpython/badge/?version=latest :target: http://circuitpython.readthedocs.io/ .. |Discord| image:: https://img.shields.io/discord/327254708534116352.svg :target: https://adafru.it/discord .. |License| image:: https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-brightgreen.svg :target: https://choosealicense.com/licenses/mit/ .. |Weblate| image:: https://hosted.weblate.org/widgets/circuitpython/-/svg-badge.svg :target: https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/circuitpython/?utm_source=widget
