API compile and flash included files not found

Cloud
1

Hello,
I have three files locally that I am trying to flash to the core using curl. The example.ino file and then a library trexController.h and trexController.cpp. I have them in the same directory and call the following in a linux termial.

curl -X PUT -F file=@example.ino 'https://api.particle.io/v1/devices/deviceidhere?access_token=accesstokenhere

It connects to spark cloud and i get a failed response like this…

I see at the bottom it says 'fatal error: trexController.h: No such file or directory'. So does this mean that it cannot find the included files? In example.ino I do include the .h file at the top. It works when there is only one file like example.ino with no other libraries included. I dont understand why it cant find those files for the library.

You’ll have to upload the other included files (*.h, *.cpp, etc) that you reference in your ino file. I’m not sure of what the cURL syntax is for uploading multiple files in a single PUT off the top of my head. Is it possible for you to use particle-cli instead of plain cURL? If not, I’ll see what I can’t do to hack out a solution using cURL!

Thanks for the quick response. I have not tried doing this with particle-cli but looking at it now, I think it will work better than the cURL for my purpose! I will switch over to node.js and try it. Thanks!

The method is to be one directory above and use particle compile dir_name
