Platformio-core: Support for Heltec CubeCell series

[SebDominguez]

I'm requesting this board to be added into PlatformIO.

This board is relatively new and the MCU is low power. It's based on an ASR6501 and unfortunately this platform doesn't exist yet.

Heltec has already made this board Arduino compatible

Would be great for this to be on platformio

[irukard]

Indeed! This is a great, low power dev board with LoRa radio.

Also would like this

Looking forward to!

@ivankravets This request is open for 5 months already, but there appears to be no progress yet. Can you give some information on when CubeCell support will be added?

[ivankravets]

@wasn-eu @Heltec-Aaron-Lee could you help with integrating your software & hardware products?

[Heltec-Aaron-Lee]

Is there any guy who can share some platformIO migration quick start manual? We will finish in the next two weeks.

Have a look here: https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/platforms/custom_platform_and_board.html

[Heltec-Aaron-Lee]

Thank you

@Heltec-Aaron-Lee glad to see you here! Quick guide:

1) Create a new repository https://github.com/HelTecAutomation/platform-asrmicro in your organization and invite me (thanks!)
2) See examples of open source dev-platforms => https://github.com/topics/platformio-platform
3) Clone https://github.com/HelTecAutomation/platform-asrmicro to ~/.platformio/platforms/asrmicro. You can work on integration here and commit changes to the repository.

This repository is a good starting point https://github.com/platformio/platform-atmelmegaavr
You just need to correct packages in platform.json to use ARM toolchain. Check other dev-platforms where we use this toolchain. For example, https://github.com/platformio/platform-atmelsam

Thanks!

The ASR Microelectronics ASR605x platform and some CubeCell boards are available on Platformio since yesterday. But I get an error message when I try to install the ASR605x platform

PIO Core Call Error: "PlatformManager: Installing asrmicro650x\r\n\n\nError: Detected unknown package 'asrmicro650x'"

https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/platforms/asrmicro650x.html

[ivankravets]

We've just published 0.1.0 version into the our registry https://github.com/HelTecAutomation/platform-asrmicro650x/releases/tag/v0.1.0

Please try again.

It's working, thanks
