Watch Application System in Python
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Wasp-os is a firmware for smart watches that are based on the nRF52 family of
|
|
microcontrollers, and especially for hacker friendly watches such as the Pine64
|
|
PineTime. Wasp-os features full heart rate monitoring and step counting support
|
|
together with multiple clock faces, a stopwatch, an alarm clock, a countdown
|
|
timer, a calculator and lots of other games and utilities. All of this, and
|
|
still with access to the MicroPython REPL for interactive tweaking, development
|
|
and testing.
|
|
|
|
Wasp-os comes fully integrated with a robust bootloader based on the Adafruit
|
|
NRF52 Bootloader. The bootloader has been extended to make it robust for
|
|
development on form-factor devices without a reset button, power switch, SWD
|
|
debugger or UART. This allows us to confidently develop on sealed devices
|
|
relying on Bluetooth Low Energy for over-the-air updates.
|
|
|
|
Documentation
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Wasp-os is has `extensive documentation <https://wasp-os.readthedocs.io>`_
|
|
which includes a detailed `Application Writer's Guide
|
|
<https://wasp-os.readthedocs.io/en/latest/appguide.html>`_ to help you
|
|
get started coding for wasp-os as quickly as possible.
|
|
|
|
Getting Started
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Wasp-os can be installed without using any tools or disassembly onto the
|
|
following devices:
|
|
|
|
* Pine64 PineTime
|
|
* Colmi P8
|
|
* Senbono K9
|
|
|
|
Use the
|
|
`Installation Guide <https://wasp-os.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html>`_
|
|
to learn how to build and install wasp-os on these devices.
|
|
|
|
At the end of the install process your watch will show the time (03:00)
|
|
together with a date and a battery meter. When the watch goes into power
|
|
saving mode you can use the button to wake it again.
|
|
|
|
At this point you will also be able to use the Nordic UART Service to
|
|
access the MicroPython REPL. You can use ``tools/wasptool --console``
|
|
to access the MicroPython REPL.
|
|
|
|
To set the time and restart the main application:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
^C
|
|
watch.rtc.set_localtime((yyyy, mm, dd, HH, MM, SS))
|
|
wasp.system.run()
|
|
|
|
Or, if you have a suitable GNU/Linux workstation, just use:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
|
|
./tools/wasptool --rtc
|
|
|
|
which can run these commands automatically.
|
|
|
|
As mentioned above there are many drivers and features still to be
|
|
developed, see the :ref:`Roadmap` for current status.
|
|
|
|
Community
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
The wasp-os community is centred around the
|
|
`github project <https://github.com/daniel-thompson/wasp-os>`_ and is
|
|
supplemented with instant messaging via the #wasp-os IRC channel at
|
|
libera.chat .
|
|
|
|
If you are unfamiliar with IRC and don't have a preferred client then
|
|
we recommend connecting to libera.chat using the
|
|
`matrix/IRC bridge <https://app.element.io/#/room/#wasp-os:libera.chat>`_.
|
|
The matrix bridge will allow us to receive messages whilst offline. Follow
|
|
the link above and, if you do not already have a matrix account, register
|
|
yourself. That should be enough to get you chatting!

wasp-os also contains a library of additional applications for you to choose.
|
|
These are disabled by default but can be easily enabled using the Software

application (and the "blank" white screen is a torch application):
