Wemos D1 Mini Osx Setup Notes

07 May 2016

Wemos D1 Mini setup for OSX

Note: This blogpost is written primarily for myself to remember how to setup a nodemcu on El Capitan

Lets enter the Wemos D1 Mini:

Driver

Driver for the CH340 can be found here on wemos website.

To flash the latest nodemcu firmware, I used esptool.

Flash the firmware

esptool.py --port=/dev/tty.wchusbserialfa130  write_flash --verify -fm=dio -fs=32m 0x00000 your-path-to-node-mcu-firmware.bin

Side note

To check which port to select run the following command and choose the obvious:

ls /dev/tty.* # will return -> /dev/tty.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/tty.wchusbserialfa130

Load the lua code

I am using an IDE called ESPlorer.

Basically pretty self-explainatory to use. Will create a blogpost if you guys are interested! hit the comments!

This blogpost will be continually be updated for commands and tools that I use for the setup
