What is Pymesh micropython library?

Pymesh micropython library is a set of scripts included (as frozen) in the Pymesh firmware binary release (not yet released).

Open-source on github

It allows users to use Pymesh in a few lines of code, as shown in the following code snippet.

import pycom
import time

try:
    from pymesh_config import PymeshConfig
except:
    from _pymesh_config import PymeshConfig

try:
    from pymesh import Pymesh
except:
    from _pymesh import Pymesh

def new_message_cb(rcv_ip, rcv_port, rcv_data):
    ''' callback triggered when a new packet arrived '''
    print('Incoming %d bytes from %s (port %d):' %
            (len(rcv_data), rcv_ip, rcv_port))
    print(rcv_data)

    # user code to be inserted, to send packet to the designated Mesh-external interface
    for _ in range(3):
        pycom.rgbled(0x888888)
        time.sleep(.2)
        pycom.rgbled(0)
        time.sleep(.1)
    return


pycom.heartbeat(False)

# read config file, or set default values
pymesh_config = PymeshConfig.read_config()

#initialize Pymesh
pymesh = Pymesh(pymesh_config, new_message_cb)

mac = pymesh.mac()
# based on LoRa MAC address, some nodes could be forced to be
# sleep-end-devices (always Child) or to have increased Leader priority
# if mac > 10:
#     pymesh.end_device(True)
# elif mac == 5:
#     pymesh.leader_priority(255)

while not pymesh.is_connected():
    print(pymesh.status_str())
    time.sleep(3)

# send message to the Node having MAC address 5
pymesh.send_mess(5, "Hello World")

# def new_br_message_cb(rcv_ip, rcv_port, rcv_data, dest_ip, dest_port):
#     ''' callback triggered when a new packet arrived for the current Border Router,
#     having destination an IP which is external from Mesh '''
#     print('Incoming %d bytes from %s (port %d), to external IPv6 %s (port %d)' %
#             (len(rcv_data), rcv_ip, rcv_port, dest_ip, dest_port))
#     print(rcv_data)

#     # user code to be inserted, to send packet to the designated Mesh-external interface
#     # ...
#     return

# add current node as Border Router, with a priority and a message handler callback
# pymesh.br_set(PymeshConfig.BR_PRIORITY_NORM, new_br_message_cb)

# remove Border Router function from current node
#pymesh.br_remove()

# send data for Mesh-external, basically to the BR
# ip = "1:2:3::4"
# port = 5555
# pymesh.send_mess_external(ip, port, "Hello World")

print("done Pymesh init, forever loop, exit/stop with Ctrl+C multiple times")
# set BR with callback

while True:
    time.sleep(3)
