avrgirl-usbtinyisp's Issues

Flesh out debug and error handling

Writing hangs due to null PageSize

So I'm trying to write to an ATMega328 with a SparkFun Pocket programmer, and it hangs on write.

After inserting some clumsy console.log statements:

avrgirlUsbTinyIsp.prototype._writeMem = function (memType, hex, callback) {
  var self = this;
  var options = this.options.chip;
  var pageAddress = 0;
  var useAddress;
  var pageSize = options[memType].pageSize;
  var addressOffset = options[memType].addressOffset;
  var addressOffset = 1;
  var data, readFile;
  var page = 0;

  if (Buffer.isBuffer(hex)) {
    data = hex;
  } else if (typeof hex === 'string') {
    try {
      readFile = fs.readFileSync(hex, { encoding: 'utf8' });
    } catch (e) {
      if (e.code === 'ENOENT') {
        return callback(new Error('could not write ' + memType + ': please supply a valid path to a hex file.'));
      } else {
        return callback(e);
      }
    }

    data = intelhex.parse(readFile).data;

  } else {
    return callback(new Error('could not write ' + memType + ': please supply either a hex buffer or a valid path to a hex file.'));
  }

  this.debug('writing to ' + memType + ', please wait...');
  this.hackerLog('page length:', hex.length / pageSize);

  async.whilst(
    // we exit out of this while loop when we are at the end of the hex file
    function testEndOfFile() {
      console.log(pageAddress, data.length, pageSize)
      return pageAddress < data.length;
    },

it says pageSize is null.

I'll see if I can patch this.

set up progress stream / event emitter

slight refactor needed for flashing, I'm on it though.

• boilerplate
• basic tests
• spy tests

Support for Ebay USBTiny (VID 1781 PID 0C9F)

Love the project, can you add support for my USBTiny (Off ebay) with VID/PID above? (It works in Arduino so I suspect it just the VID/PID?)

Switch to upstream of usbtinyisp dependency

quick write

fix erase delay for trinket

The delay should be 900000µs (!!!)

I am going to play with this to get it down from that unrealistic number.

Looking for physical hardware testers

If you have any of the devices that avrgirl-usbtinyisp supports, please have a go at using it to upload a precompiled script to a chip. Open an issue if you run into anything other than success.

Thank you ✨

switch to a new test coverage package

Looks like istanbul is no longer maintained / is not getting the love it needs, so a new coverage library would be preferred. There are security vulns that affect us continuing to use istanbul and istanbul-coveralls.

Very low priority, removing these coverage libs and deactivating them in CI would probably be more productive for now.

I love your repos! So :heart: neat and clean!

So ❤️ neat and clean! 🥇
Your repo README's should be presentation examples!
