Vim¶

Project Generator¶

Choose board ID using pio boards or Embedded Boards Explorer command and generate project via pio project init --ide command:

pio project init --ide vim --board <ID>

Recommended bundles:

• C/C++/ObjC language server supporting cross references, hierarchies, completion and semantic highlighting

• Async language server protocol plugin for vim and neovim

• “Neomake-PlatformIO” Plugin

Put to the project directory Makefile wrapper with contents:

# Uncomment lines below if you have problems with $PATH
#SHELL := /bin/bash
#PATH := /usr/local/bin:$(PATH)

all:
        pio -f -c vim run

upload:
        pio -f -c vim run --target upload

clean:
        pio -f -c vim run --target clean

program:
        pio -f -c vim run --target program

uploadfs:
        pio -f -c vim run --target uploadfs

update:
        pio -f -c vim update

Pre-defined targets:

• Build - Build project without auto-uploading

• Clean - Clean compiled objects.

• Upload - Build and upload (if no errors)

• Upload using Programmer see Upload using Programmer

• Upload SPIFFS image see Using Filesystem

• Update platforms and libraries - Update installed platforms and libraries via pio update.

Now, in VIM cd /path/to/this/project and press Ctrl+B or Cmd+B (Mac). PlatformIO should compile your source code from the src directory, make firmware and upload it.
