Usage

ok, you just installed cuwire utility. What's next?

Help

Help command list all commands and options. Options depends on context, you probably don't need to pass sketch folder option when listing serial ports. But you can use board name instead of com port name for upload purpose. Below you can see some most important examples.

$ cuwire help

Build error: no runtimes found #noRuntimesErr. You'll need to install Arduino IDE.

$ cuwire build
cuwire no runtimes found #noRuntimesErr

Board list command.

$ cuwire boards
cuwire no runtimes found #noRuntimesErr
cuwire boards available:
RFduino Boards (RFDuino:arm)
RFduino (RFduino)
Arduino AVR Boards (arduino:avr) 1.5.8
LilyPad Arduino USB (LilyPadUSB)
Arduino NG or older (atmegang, models: cpu:atmega168 [ATmega168], cpu:atmega8 [ATmega8])
Arduino BT (bt, models: cpu:atmega328 [ATmega328], cpu:atmega168 [ATmega168])

LilyPad Arduino (lilypad, models: cpu:atmega328 [ATmega328], cpu:atmega168 [ATmega168])
Arduino Mega or Mega 2560 (mega, models: cpu:atmega2560 [ATmega2560 (Mega 2560)], cpu:atmega1280 [ATmega1280])

Port list command.

Usually lists port path/name. Also (if available) USB vendorId:productId, matching arduino board name, USB device serial, manufacturer name.

$ cuwire ports
cuwire using runtime from /Applications/devel/Arduino.app/Contents/Java
cuwire serial ports available:
/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem
/dev/cu.wchusbserial14520 0x1a86:0x7523
/dev/cu.usbmodem14541 Arduino Uno uno #752323334353519072E1 Arduino (www.arduino.cc)

/dev/cu.usbserial-DC008W8T 0x0403:0x6015  #DC008W8T FTDI

Sketch compilation, then upload. You can use -p (port) parameter to define port.

Or use -b (board) parameter to automatically guess port name (limitations).

$ cuwire upload -s samples/ArduinoVoltage/ArduinoVoltage.ino -b uno
cuwire using runtime from /Applications/devel/Arduino.app/Contents/Java
cuwire compilation of samples/ArduinoVoltage/

cuwire upload samples/ArduinoVoltage/ using port /dev/cu.usbmodem14541
upload done

Serial monitor. You can use -r to define baudrate, -p (port) parameter to define port.

Or use -b (board) parameter to automatically guess port name (limitations).

$ cuwire console -b uno
