Flashing Carloop via Webservice

[egarl004]

Hey again!

Wondering if anyone could point me to some documentation regarding learning how to flash particle outside of the web ide but via a web service(i.e. not cli). I love how slick the interaction is with the carloop.io/apps page, and I'm trying to implement something similar with some added form fields.

Hi folks,

Here's the documentation for flashing Particle outside the Web IDE.

You can use the API directly: https://docs.particle.io/reference/api/#flash-a-device-with-source-code

$ curl -X PUT "https://api.particle.io/v1/devices/0123456789abcdef01234567?access_token=1234" \
       -F "file=@app.ino" \
       -F "file1=@project.properties"

project.properties tells the cloud compiler what libraries you want to use. For Carloop, put this in project.properties:

dependencies.carloop=1.1.1

If you are building a web app, you can also use the Particle Javascript library: https://docs.particle.io/reference/javascript/#flashing

This is what the apps page does here: https://github.com/carloop/app-reminder/blob/master/docs/reminder.js#L137
