!!!Tip Use Grove modules to expand your application. There are 6 Grove connects on board. If this is your first time to hear about Grove, please put had on Grove System for more details. In brief, Groves is hundreds of sensor that in standard style, which is consist of sensors, actuators, displays as well as communication.
Windows Users: Most versions of Windows won't automatically load the built-in driver for USB com ports. You'll have to download ST's USB driver:
Non-Windows XP Users download version 1.4.0 drivers. Unzip the file, run the executable, and then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\STMicroelectronics\Software\Virtual comport driver in Windows Explorer and double-click either dpinst_amd64.exe for 64 bit systems, or dpinst_x86.exe for 32 bit.
Windows XP Users download version 1.3.1 drivers. Unzip the file, run VCP_V1.3.1_Setup.exe, and then go to C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\Software\Virtual comport driver in Windows Explorer and double-click the executable.
Linux users to ensure that you have the correct permissions to connect as a normal user you'll need to copy the file 45-espruino.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d, reload rules with udevadm control --reload-rules, and ensure your user is in the plugdev group (you can check by typing groups). You add it by typing sudo adduser $USER plugdev and then logging out and back in. Arch Linux users need to add their user to uucp and lock groups instead.
Mac OS X and Chromebook Users: The board will just plug in and work, without drivers!
For windows users: Press and hold BOOT button and connect to computer you will see STM32 Device in DFU Mode at device manager, this says that you need to use zadig_xx.exe to change DFU driver from STTub30 to WinUSB as bellow.

Thanks to G.Williams for providing Espruino the Javascript interpreter, so that we can prototype things with Javascript.
Step 1: Connect the Wio LTE board to computer using a micro USB cable. On device manager you can see a new COM Port device, on MacOS it is STM32 Virtual ComPort, on windows it is STMicroelectronic Virtual COM Port.
Step 2: On the Web IDE click the left top icon, choose Espruino board in the select box.
In Espruino, Modules are pieces of pre-written code (libraries) that perform common tasks, such as interfacing to different bits of hardware.
They can currently be used in a few different ways:
If you're using the Espruino Web IDE, simply write require("modulename") on the right-hand side - as you would have seen in the reference pages. When you click the Send to Espruino button, the Web IDE will automatically look online for minified versions of the modules you need, download them, and load them onto the board. You don't need an SD card or an internet connection to the Espruino board itself.
If you are using the Web IDE as is, the modules will be loaded from http://www.espruino.com/modules/. This URL can be changed in Web IDE settings.
To save space, most modules are provided as a minified version and the Web IDE tries to load minified versions first with default configuration.
For example, using require("ADNS5050"); will make the Web IDE loading the minified module from http://www.espruino.com/modules/ADNS5050.min.js.
For now, as you can type a URL into require, you can actually just pull a module right off GitHub:
require("https://github.com/espruino/EspruinoDocs/blob/master/devices/PCD8544.js");
You can even look at the history of something on GitHub, and can then require a specific version of that file with:
require("https://github.com/espruino/EspruinoDocs/blob/d4996cb3179abe260c030ed02bcb0d2384db6bbd/devices/PCD8544.js");
The URL comes from clicking <> by the commit you were interested in.
If you activate this option in Web IDE, you can load modules from the NPM repository. Right now it:
For example using require("async"); will make the Web IDE loading the tar.gz file (with automatic extraction) of the module from http://registry.npmjs.org/async.
If you are using a local project folder, the Web IDE will automatically create an empty modules folder inside. Put a module there and you can load it with require("myCustomModule");.
With default Web IDE configuration, it will look for modules following this order:
If your own module has the same name as one of the existing ones, the Web IDE will use the minified version from online first.
If you need it anyway, you can provide a local minified version or you can change the Web IDE configuration from .min.js|.js to .js|.min.js or even myCustomModule.js|.min.js|.js to get it working.
If you have an Espruino with an SD card (but you're not using the Web IDE), you can copy the modules you need into a directory called 'node_modules' on the SD card. Now, whenever you write require("modulename") the module will be used.
Right now there isn't a way to make Espruino automatically load a module from the internet when required without the Web IDE. This may be added in the future, but the fact that require is synchronous while network connections are asynchronous makes this difficult to do reliably until yield is added into the interpreter.
Until then, the following asyncronous code will dynamically load a module from the internet on demand.
function loadModule(moduleName, callback) {
require("http").get("http://www.espruino.com/modules/"+moduleName+".js", function(res) {
var contents = "";
res.on('data', function(data) { contents += data; });
res.on('close', function() {
Modules.addCached(moduleName, contents);
if (callback) callback();
});
}).on('error', function(e) {
console.log("ERROR", e);
});
}
