MicroPython libraries¶
The following standard Python libraries are built in to MicroPython.
For additional libraries, please download them from the micropython-lib repository.
Python standard libraries and micro-libraries¶
The following standard Python libraries have been “micro-ified” to fit in with the philosophy of MicroPython. They provide the core functionality of that module and are intended to be a drop-in replacement for the standard Python library.
The modules are available by their u-name, and also by their non-u-name. The
non-u-name can be overridden by a file of that name in your package path.
For example, import json
will first search for a file json.py
or
directory json
and load that package if it is found. If nothing is found,
it will fallback to loading the built-in ujson
module.
