I has bluetooth capabilities built in. I was wondering if there was a way to write a program in pythonista that would allow me to upload an arduino sketch over a bluetooth enabled arduino. I'm hoping it could be made to be as simple as writing the code in an arduino text editor, and then putting it in quotes in a print function in pythonista, and hitting send. If that makes any sense still all.
I don't see how that can work.
The way I use Python to upload programs it is just a "wrapper" that presents the code to the Arduino IDE in the correct way. The Arduino IDE is still responsible for compiling the code and sending it to the Arduino over the USB cable.
I believe it is possible to replace the USB cable with a Bluetooth link but I have never tried it myself. However it is not possible for Python to generate the code to be uploaded to an Arduino board without the help of the Arduino IDE and your description is missing that part of the jigsaw.
