BMP library - file upload

[connochaetes]

Hi. I’m just checking out my new ED1. ( @ Citilab : Thank you very much. ) Right now, I’m discovering the BMP library. In the library description, José Garcia Yeste is describing, how to upload files 100% inside MicroBlocks. Sadly, I didn’t find any further information on using MicroBlock’s web server and a multipart POST request.

A little help on this issue would be great. I guess, that there are a few pitfalls for the unexperienced user. If there’s no time for further documentation, I’ll have to figure it out on my own. That would be OK, too.

Hi,

Here you have a program to save a binary to the filesystem.

https://cloud.citilab.eu/s/aTkebJstzJKcMrd

To send the binary use curl, something like this:

curl --request POST --data-binary "@photo1.bmp" 192.168.0.167. Use the IP of the ED1 board.

I hope this can be useful.

Maybe the microBlocks team implement a better way to do that in the future

Thanks for the help. The way that you proposed is quite instructive. I’m looking at a nice picture on my ED1’s screen right now. Another feature that impresses myself and (hopefully) my students.
