# esp-hosted driver
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a MicroPython driver for the Espressif
|
||
|
|
[esp_hosted](https://github.com/espressif/esp-hosted/#readme) communications
|
||
|
|
coprocessor, which allows creating a Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth interface from
|
||
|
|
MicroPython to a separate connected ESP32 compatible device running the
|
||
|
|
`esp_hosted` firmware.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Building
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Enable this driver by setting `MICROPY_PY_NETWORK_ESP_HOSTED` to 1 in your
|
||
|
|
Makefile. If `MICROPY_PY_BLUETOOTH` is set then the Bluetooth host driver will
|
||
|
|
also be built.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition to normal MicroPython build requirements, building this driver
|
||
|
|
requires the [protocol buffer
|
||
|
|
compiler](https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf#protobuf-compiler-installation)
|
||
|
|
(protoc) to be installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
On Debian/Ubuntu, it can be installed by running:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler
|
||
|
|
```
