How to write only the EEPROM on a attiny202

[NimbleMotorsports]

It does not look there is an option in the Arduino IDE.
It seems I need to use a python script of some kind, but I have not found the answer via google. Any help appreciated. I was editing my code for each device to change its ID, but that is just dumb. However, so far I could have done that 4 times over for all the time I've spent trying to find out to write it into the eeprom..

You can use pymcuprog on cli to read & write. Example

pymcuprog -U -t uart -u COM8 -d attiny1614 write -m user_row -l ...

Read contents

pymcuprog -t uart -u COM8 -d attiny1614 read -m eeprom

Erase
pymcuprog -t uart -u COM8 -d attiny1614 erase -m user_row

Just what I needed to know, surprising how hard it was to find this info. I ran into another problem...that you must use -l to specify a byte value to write as the last option, otherwise anything after -l is parsed as values to write and not commands or switches to the command. Hope that helps someone in the future.  So this fails, pymcuprog -o 0 -b 1 -t 0x22 -d attiny202 -m eeprom write it must be pymcuprog write -o 0 -b 1 -d attiny202 -m eeprom -t 0x22   On 05/09/2024 6:17 AM PDT Mechatroniks ***@***.***> wrote:       You can use 'pymcuprog' on cli to read & write.

How difficult would it be to add something to the arduino ide to do this? The IDE has an extensions option in the toolbar.  If I can help contribute to add that.. I had to install python and install pymcuprog (windows 10) but we know it already was there in the megaTinyCore, which I tried to find and was not obvious.   If I knew how to invoke it from there I could add the extension.

Not sure about how to do something like that in Arduino, but Platform IO allows you to make a pre downloaded and/or post upload call that easily could do this.
