bq / bitbloq-offline

Bitbloq is an offline application that helps children program robots and boards

Bitbloq Offline

[es_ES]

ESTE PROYECTO ESTÁ DISCONTINUADO Y NO RECIBIRÁ SOPORTE

Esta es la versión offline oficial del proyecto Bitbloq, una herramienta de programación visual de Arduino.

Puedes utilizar la versión online aquí.

En la versión actual soportamos las siguientes placas:

• Arduino UNO
• Freaduino UNO
• BQ ZUM

Y los siguientes robots:

• ZOWI

¿Utilizas otra placa o robot y quieres que la añadamos en Bitbloq? Escríbenos a [email protected] e intentaremos hablar con el fabricante para que nos permita introducirlo en Bitbloq. Por supuesto es un proyecto Open Source y también aceptamos contribuciones de cualquier persona siempre que sean correctas.

Actualmente Bitbloq offline funciona en las siguientes plataformas:

• Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 y superior, Fedora 21, Debian 8)
• Mac OS X 10.9 o superior
• Windows 7 y posterior, ambos 32 y 64 (la versión ARM de Windows no está soportada por ahora).

Puedes encontrar los instaladores de la aplicación aquí:

• Linux
• Linux 32
• Mac
• Windows 32 y 64

Notas:

• Es una aplicación portable, no requiere instalación ni permisos de administrador para ejecutarse, pero tu placa es posible que requiera drivers, hemos añadido algunos en la carpeta drivers de la aplicación. ¡ Acuérdate de instalarlos !

• Acuérdate de descomprimir el fichero que te descargas en una carpeta en la que luego el usuario que lo utilice tenga permisos, por ejemplo, en windows no la descomprimas directamente en "c:", o en la carpeta de "c:/Archivos de programa", ejemplos válidos son la carpeta "Documentos" del usuario o en el escritorio.

• ¿No te detecta la placa y está conectada el ordenador? Revisa este documento y si sigues teniendo incidencias, no dudes en escríbirnos a [email protected].

Recuerda que al ser una aplicación offline, no tendrás todas las ventajas ni novedades de la web. Te recomendamos que la uses solo cuando no tienes conexión estable a internet.

THIS PROJECT IS DISCONTINUED AND WILL NO RECEIVE FURTHER SUPPORT

This is the offline version of the Bitbloq project, a visual programming tool for Arduino.

You can visit the online version here

The current version supports the following boards:

• Arduino UNO
• Freaduino UNO
• BQ ZUM

And the following robots:

• ZOWI

Do you have a board or robot that is not in Bitbloq? Email us to [email protected], and we will reach the manufacturer to introduce it on Bitbloq. Bitbloq is an Open Source project so we will accept contributions adding new boards / robots if they are correct.

In this platforms:

• Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 and later, Fedora 21, Debian 8)
• Mac OS X 10.9 or greater
• Windows 7 and later, both 32 and 64 (ARM version os Windows is not suported for now).

You can find binaries here:

• Linux
• Linux 32
• Mac
• Windows 32 y 64

Getting Started

Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/bq/bitbloq-offline.git

Get into the directory:

   cd bitbloq-offline/

Install npm and Bower components:

npm install
bower install

Launch the app:

electron .

Packaging

Just build for all Operating systems:

grunt dist

Or depending on the operating system:

• Windows:

    grunt build:windows
  

• Linux:

    grunt build:linux
  

• Mac:

    grunt build:mac
  

This will generate a /dist/{os} folder with the app ready to be launched.

Serial monitor doesn't open any window

When I click on the View/Show serial monitor menu, nothing happens (so I can't interact with the serial port :( ).

Is there any way I can start Bitbloq with some debug option so that it will send anything to stdout/stderr? Or is there any log file?

If I use Show Web2Board, a new window opens. In Plugins I can choose Serial Monitor, but again, nothings happens.

I'm on linux BTW.

PIO env always bt328 whatever board chosen (windows)

Hi,

I am currently on the process of adding a new board to bitbloq offline : Teensy. This board is known from platformio, and sketches compiles fine using platformio IDE on atom, but not with web2board.

I checked "bitbloq-offline\app\res\web2board\win32\info.log" and pioenv remains identical whatever board is used :

PIOENV=bt328
PLATFORM=atmelavr
BOARD=zumbt328

Though it works for all boards based on regular arduino, it is not working for a board like Teensy.

I can't find where the board is specified.

Where could be the problem?

Add translation

Include the translation libs from Bitbloq, the grunt tasks and create a poeditor account

web2board fails in linux32bits with Bitbloq 1.2.3

I tried the last bitbloq 1.2.3 linux 32 version. In the menu I clic in "Show web2board" and I get a warn "web2board is disconected"

I open a terminal in the path ./resources/app/app/res/web2board/linux32/
I run ./web2boardLauncher and I get this message:

web2board: proceso no encontrado

web2board returned -1

With the 64bits version I don't have that problem.
With Bitbloq 1.0.3 there was not problem too.

Programar la placa en Windows 10

La versión 1.2.3 de bitbloq offline para windows no programa la placa zum ( directamente dice que no la detecta ), mientras que con la versión 1.0.3 sí que va perfectamente.

He probado en distintos ordenadores y me pasa en todos lo mismo, todos con W10 64 bits, y de distintas marcas. He instalado la versión web2board que viene y tampoco.

No sé que puedo estar haciendo mal o que hay que configurar para que funcione. A ver si me podéis echar una mano.
