Remote update code“ code.py”

[ZHNscl]

I want to implement FTP on IOTS2 module through circulePython.
Because OTA updates the underlying firmware, I can't update the main code of code.py, which bothers me a lot.

Referring to some of the routines in mircuitPython, one of them didn't work on my board.

from setuptools import setup
Post-run prompt "No module name 'setuptools'"
What do I need to solve？

I believe #3454 might allow what you want to do, by uploading the file to the board, then resetting to run a script that replaces the old code.py with the new one and reset again to run the new code.py from then on. You have to make the drive writable too, that's covered in the learn guides.

setuptools is a CPython module that CircuitPython doesn't provide.
