Cannot find bangle.js with espruino --list

[Inc0n]

https://banglejs.com/apps/ says web bluetooth is disabled on firefox (the browser I am using).
The quick start guide says that it is disabled current on my laptop.

Getting started with espruino cli and the following output is observed.

$ espruino --list

Hmm, I can see mine

My guess is you don't have noble installed properly on your laptop. If you run with --verbose it may give you some hints.

But CLI is definitely the most painful way to get started with Bangle.js. Firefox does not support Web Bluetooth - if you could just install Chrome (even if you only use it for Bangle.js) everything will work great

That's what I think too.

$ npm list -g --depth=0
/usr/local/lib

Hi, apology for the late response...
noble is installed:

$ npm list -g --depth=0
/opt/homebrew/lib
├── espruino@0.1.40
├── noble@1.9.1
...

uname output, I should have specified my platform earlier, but here it is:

$ uname -a 
20.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 20.6.0: Wed Jun 23 00:26:27 PDT 2021; root:xnu-7195.141.2~5/RELEASE_ARM64_T8101 arm64

I thought it was some sort of configuration that I may be missing here. Sadly, chrome does seem to have the best support for almost everything I need, such as the Stetho debug bridge with Chrome Developer Tools to now this Web Bluetooth.

Argh, that's interesting. So you're saying that Chrome on ARM Macs doesn't support Web Bluetooth?

What does espruino --list --verbose show? It might give some hints as to why Noble isn't working...

Another easy option to get started is: https://www.espruino.com/ide/relay/

But I guess you probably have an iOS phone, so even that may not be straightforward...

No, sorry, I meant that Chrome has the support for everything I need. Whereas firefox doesn't.

What does espruino --list --verbose show? It might give some hints as to why Noble isn't working...

I will definitely resort to this, and I do have an android phone actually :), M1 really is worth getting IMO.
