This tool is Python based and therefore you should first install Python and pip if you don’t already have it.Įnter the following command to check your default Python version, this will also indicate if you do not already have Python installed as the version will not be returned. The easiest way to install ESP tool is to use pip. Simply enter the following command to install the dependancies. pip2 install esptool pip3 install esptool If you receive an error you may need to specify the version of pip, go ahead and try either of these commands instead. If you still receive an error, there is another option given on the ESPTool Github page that you can try. Once the ESPTool dependancies have been installed, we need to navigate to the directory where we would like to install the ESPTool script. I will install to ~/Documents for simplicity but you can choose any location. Then we need to clone the Git repository so go ahead and enter the following command.

This will install the script in to your chosen directory. So in my case it is now installed in my documents folder. ~/Documents/esptool/ Download the latest Tasmota binary Now that we have ESPTool installed, we need a copy of the latest Tasmota binary. You can download the tasmota.bin file from Github.

You can save the file to any location of your choice, but I would recommend placing it in the same folder as the esptool.py script. ~/Documents/esptool/tasmota.binĪlternatively if you are using a Linux build without a GUI, you can get the download link from the alternative source and download it with curl. curl -output tasmota.bin Flash the D1 Mini This command should work so long as the link isn’t broken! In which case you will need to amend the link in this command. It is time to flash the D1 Mini! Go ahead and connect it to your computer with a USB cable.
