Code in tools/mpy-tool.py and py/frozenmod.c relies on the source file path encoded in a .mpy file to have forward slashes (e.g. by searching for '/__init__.py'). Enforce that when creating these files, thereby fixing import of .mpy files and frozen modules not working before because they could have backslashes when built with the windows port.
MicroPython cross compiler
This directory contains the MicroPython cross compiler, which runs under any Unix-like system and compiles .py scripts into .mpy files.
Build it as usual:
$ make
The compiler is called mpy-cross
. Invoke it as:
$ ./mpy-cross foo.py
This will create a file foo.mpy which can then be copied to a place accessible
by the target MicroPython runtime (eg onto a pyboard's filesystem), and then
imported like any other Python module using import foo
.
Different target runtimes may require a different format of the compiled bytecode, and such options can be passed to the cross compiler.
If the Python code contains @native
or @viper
annotations, then you must
specify -march
to match the target architecture.
Run ./mpy-cross -h
to get a full list of options.
The optimisation level is 0 by default. Optimisation levels are detailed in https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/library/micropython.html#micropython.opt_level
