Hello
I installed the HC-05 bluetooth module to my espruino, and I'm confident it works fine as I can connect to it from picocom in Ubuntu.
I used this guide (https://gist.github.com/xseignard/9367829) to configure the connection to espruino and I can send commands and receive results from the terminal.
However the web ide can not detect the serial port for the bluetooth connection (/dev/rfcomm0)
I tried to symlink it as suggested to be done for OS X, but it didn't work. I symlinked to /dev/ttySpruino, /dev/ttyACM0, /dev/tty.usbmodem12345, and none of these did work.
Is there a way I could force the web ide to use a specific device, as I know for certain that it would work using /dev/rfcomm0?
Perhaps it would be useful to have an option in the connection window of the web ide to allow the user to enter a device path manually instead of relying only on those detected by Chrome!
Thanks!
Elvis
