installer.py¶

Universal MicroPython installer that pulls from both the micropython-lib index and the pydisplay GitHub repo.

Download installer.py¶

Browser: github.com/PyDevices/pydisplay/blob/main/installer.py

On device:

import mip
mip.install("github:PyDevices/pydisplay/installer.py")

On host:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PyDevices/pydisplay/main/installer.py

Usage¶

from installer import install

install("pydisplay-bundle")                              # micropython-lib
install("/packages/add_ons.json", target="./add_ons")      # GitHub
install("/packages/examples.json", target="./examples")    # GitHub
install("/board_configs/busdisplay/i80/wt32sc01-plus")     # GitHub board package
install("/src/lib/board_config.py", target="./")           # default desktop config
install("/src/lib/path.py", target="./")

The default block at the bottom of installer.py runs a full install when you import installer — edit that section to match your hardware.

How routing works¶

Argument pattern	Source	Function
No `/` in name (e.g. `displaysys`)	micropython-lib `.mpy`	`lib_install()`
Contains `/` (e.g. `/packages/examples.json`)	GitHub source `.py`	`repo_install()`

Wokwi demo¶

See the installer in action: Wokwi ESP32-S3 example.

Custom installs¶

Copy lines from the comment block in installer.py and adjust targets. Example minimal LVGL setup:

install("displaysys")
install("eventsys")
install("/board_configs/busdisplay/spi/wokwi_ili9341_ft6x36_esp32s3")

Then import path and your application module.
