Supplying --desc, e.g.

> aip board --desc wio_terminal
It's not an ardupy device!

But if I plug in the Wio Terminal first (or temporarily unplug my XIAO-based Altoid MIDI Box), then

> aip board --desc wio_terminal
2020-08-14

Further, while it appears from the code that it is using the "name" as I show above, it appears that it really does not matter what you supply for the argument to --desc; it seems to be entirely ignored.

It would really be nice if it reported more information, and listed all the identifiable boards, even if not configured for ArduPy.

• add build, install, flash command
• publish to PyPi
• add ci-travis
• documentation of all commands
• add uninstall command
• add REPL command
• add files command
• handle different boards, set global variables?
• the Ardupy module may not be on GitHub. What should I do?
• shadow repositories cannot be downloaded using pygit2, and specific versions need to be considered.

Running AIP on a windows system with Python3.9 and PIP 20.3.3 leads to the following error:

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> aip

At a guess it seems like py2exe has been used to package aip on Windows? It seems like it may have a problem packaging cacert.pem...

Same error for the flash and list commands. board command works fine.

I am following the YouTube video .
"Wio Terminal Classroom with Ardupy #5 | AIP Usage & Ardupy Libraries"
I have installed "python-3.10.1-amd64.exe" and did "pip3 install ardupy-aip" with no errors.
When I type "pip3 list" I get

Package Version

ardupy-aip 0.9.1
ardupy-mpfshell 1.1.2
colorama 0.4.4
demjson 1.6
pip 21.3.1
pyserial 3.5
pyusb 1.2.1
setuptools 58.1.0
websocket-client 1.2.3

I think this means I have install ardupy-aip successfully but when I type in "aip help" I get the following error messages

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong ? I don't want to continue if I don't get the same result as he does. I am sure the rest of the video will not work for me if I don't get what he does.

Hi,

I execute the following:

aip install Seeed-Studio/seeed-ardupy-ultrasonic-sensor

And get the following:

Downloading library......

I can download the zip file from github with a browser, and with wget.

When I execute aip list I get:
