$ micropython -m upip install micropython-microqueue

Installing on micropython on the esp8266¶

To install on micropython embedded platforms:

Step 1. Change into the esp8266 build directory¶

$ cd esp8266

Step 2. Use upip to install the module into the scripts directory.¶

Set the MICROPYPATH environment variable to point to the scripts directory.

$ MICROPYPATH=scripts;micropython -m upip install micropython-microqueue

Step 3. Deploy the module to the esp8266.¶

$ make deploy

Example, of installing on ESP8266¶

Install using the upip module into the esp8266 scripts directory

$ MICROPYPATH=scripts;micropython -m upip install micropython-microqueue
