We have a new alpha release of the Rapsberry Pi WebIDE ready to go. This latest version is primarily bug fixes, but it does have one new feature! We’ve added the ability to create folders at all levels of your project to help with organization of those more complex projects.
The new changes for the 0.3.2 version of the WebIDE are as follows:
- Navigator: Add ability to create folders at all levels.
- Debugger: Fix display of local vs global variables.
- Terminal: Set terminal width based on containing parent, use entire width and height.
- Terminal: Resize browser window resizes terminal appropriately.
- Remove file creation and uploads in Adafruit repository (it would fail anyways) project
Also, 0.3.1 had been previously released with a single fix as follows:
- Fix for debugger hanging when stderr is written from script being debug.
Upgrading from 0.2.0 and higher
You can upgrade from 0.2.0 and higher from within the editor. If you’d like the increased speed using the new node binaries, you’ll want to uninstall/install again.
- Ensure that your code is safely saved in your repository at bitbucket.org.
- Login to the editor.
- Click Update in the upper right.
- Update should take about a minute.
Upgrading From 0.1.9 and lower
To install this new editor, you’ll want to completely remove your old editor, and run the installation script again.
- Ensure that your code is safely saved in your repository at bitbucket.org.
- Uninstall using the following script
- curl https://raw.github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-WebIDE/release/scripts/uninstall.sh | sh
- Either make sure there are no rogue node processes running, or restart your Pi.
- Install the new and improved WebIDE
- curl https://raw.github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-WebIDE/alpha/scripts/install.sh | sudo sh
