import esp_idf_nvs_partition_gen

Generate a binary NVS partition from a CSV. Adjust flash_size and page_size to match your ESP-IDF configuration.

from esp_idf_nvs_partition_gen import NVSGenerator import csv import io # Create a sample CSV in memory csv_data = """key,type,encoding,value my_string,namespace,,app my_key,data,string,hello""" csv_file = io.StringIO(csv_data) reader = csv.DictReader(csv_file) # Generate the NVS partition binary output_path = "partition.bin" generator = NVSGenerator(flash_size=0x400000, page_size=0x1000) generator.add_csv_reader(reader) generator.generate(output_path) print(f"Generated NVS partition at {output_path}")

Debug
Known footguns
deprecatedThe module 'esp_idf_nvs_partition_gen' is deprecated in favor of ESP-IDF's built-in 'parttool.py' and 'nvs_partition_gen' utility. New projects should use the official ESP-IDF tools.
gotchaCSV column names must match exactly: 'key','type','encoding','value'. Missing or extra columns cause silent errors or no output.
gotchaNamespace entries must have 'type' set to 'namespace' and 'encoding' and 'value' left blank. Filling them incorrectly will break the NVS structure.
breakingThe 'NVSGenerator' class API changed in 0.2.0: 'add_csv_file' method was removed. Use 'add_csv_reader' with a CSV DictReader instead.
