supervisor.runtime :Runtime

Runtime information, such as runtime.serial_connected (USB serial connection status). This object is the sole instance of supervisor.Runtime.

supervisor.enable_autoreload() → None

Enable autoreload based on USB file write activity.

supervisor.disable_autoreload() → None

Disable autoreload based on USB file write activity until enable_autoreload is called.

supervisor.set_rgb_status_brightness(brightness: int) → None

Set brightness of status neopixel from 0-255 set_rgb_status_brightness is called.

supervisor.reload() → None

Reload the main Python code and run it (equivalent to hitting Ctrl-D at the REPL).

supervisor.set_next_stack_limit(size: int) → None

Set the size of the stack for the next vm run. If its too large, the default will be used.

class supervisor.Runtime

Current status of runtime objects.

Usage:

import supervisor
if supervisor.runtime.serial_connected:
    print("Hello World!")

You cannot create an instance of supervisor.Runtime. Use supervisor.runtime to access the sole instance available.

serial_connected :bool

Returns the USB serial communication status (read-only).

Note

SAMD: Will return True if the USB serial connection has been established at any point. Will not reset if USB is disconnected but power remains (e.g. battery connected)

serial_bytes_available :int

Returns the whether any bytes are available to read on the USB serial input. Allows for polling to see whether to call the built-in input() or wait. (read-only)
