No module named 'ili9341' (or ili9xxx)

Micropython

Hello - I’m having a heck of a time getting lv-micropython to build and deployt correctly; in particular, I can’t figure out how to get the drivers available on an esp32 device.

I’ve been following the directions in README-LVGL; that is I cloned lv_micropython, as well as esp-idf (v5.2.3). I can successfully build and deploy on both a cheap-yellow-display (using board=ESP32-GENERIC) and a Lolin S2-mini following the directions for a manual build:

make -C mpy-cross
make -C ports/esp32 LV_CFLAGS=“-DLV_COLOR_DEPTH=16” BOARD=ESP32_GENERIC BOARD_VARIANT=SPIRAM deploy

Micropython boots and runs as expected, but the example code fails; there is no ili9xxx, ili9XXX, or ili9341 module. The readme doesn’t mention any additional steps to take to include them; am I missing a configuration step?

Try out this binding. It is a lot easier to get up and running.

This might help: (GitHub - de-dh/ESP32-Cheap-Yellow-Display-Micropython-LVGL: This repository is about running LVGL under Micropython firmware on the cheap yellow display.)
