#GEANY CODE#
Your code works like a charm and made my day!Īfter getting frustrated with ms-"free-but-register"-license-crap while using the execellent plugin for visualstudio and then getting even more frustrated configuring the eclipse-enviroment for arduino - even while eclipse is my main ide at work - it feels like coming home to a cosy fire & hot cocoa using geany and just hit a a key to verify or upload

#GEANY MODS#
ino files to Geany's filetype_nf and as far as I can tell it only associates my Build mods with. The first part is the path and filename for my Python script (obviously change that to whatever is appropriate for your system) and the second part produces the path and filename for the Arduino sketch. I added a command called Upload and in the command box I entered /mnt/sdb1/SGT-Prog/Arduino/GeanyPythonBuild/PythonBuildPuppy.py "%d/%f" In Geany's Build menu there is an option Set Build Commands which brings up a box where you can enter commands for different actions. ino file to be in a directory of the same name applies. The Python code and a demo Arduino program are attached. It expects lines 2,3 and 4 to have upload (or verify), the board name and the port name respectively. This is a very simple Python program with no error checking other than to ensure that lines 1 and 5 have the required data - just to avoid havoc in case it is passed a file that is not intended for it. The Python script is called from Geany which passes the path and filename of the sketch to it. I have written a very short Python program which takes values from comments on the first 5 lines of an Arduino sketch and creates and executes the necessary arduino command line. However the command line is long and error prone and I don't think there is any way to pass all of the Arduino specific values to it from Geany. I discovered that since version 1.5 there is a command line mechanism for Arduino. That got me wondering about compiling and uploading without using the Arduino IDE, which, in turn, got me wondering if I could make use of the Build menu in Geany. However I discovered that the Arduino IDE does not display properly - the menus get scrunched up and become unusable. Recently I have been trying out Puppy Linux - which has a lot of attractive simplicities. I have been using Geany as my external editor for Arduino programming for some time.

It may be possible to adapt it for Windows or Mac.
#GEANY 32 BIT#
Ubuntu 16.10, 32 bit and Geany version 1.27 ().This was developed on Linux (Xubuntu and PuppyLinux Tahrpup 6.0 CE).
#GEANY 64 BIT#
Ubuntu 19.10, 64 bit (but using desktop environment Cinnamon instead of GNOME) and Geany version 1.35. On Ubuntu 16.04, the output from apt-cache search geany includes "geany-plugin-debugger – debugger plugin for Geany". You need a Ubuntu version prior to 18.04. The web site list of plugins for Geany has " Debugger", but it is not available through the package system in Ubuntu 19.10. The "Debugger" Geany plugin is not available in later versions of Ubuntu
#GEANY INSTALL#
Install it (based on the exact name from above, "geany-plugin-numberedbookmarks"): sudo apt-get install geany-plugin-numberedbookmarksĪfter this, the plugin "Numbered Bookmarks" is now listed in Plugin Manager. Geany-plugin-numberedbookmarks - numbered bookmarks plugin for Geany List available Geany plugins (available through the package system): apt-cache search geany | grep geany-pluginįilter for plugins related to bookmarks (as to why not debuggers, see below): apt-cache search geany | grep geany-plugin | grep -i book Despite the name, you can't actually install plugins from Plugin Manager, only enable already-installed ones. The Geany plugin manager only lists already-installed plugins.
