Transferring File from SD Card to Local Directory

[ecburns33]

I'm trying to transfer data written into a text file on an SD card to a local directory where I can access it more easily. What's the easiest way to do this? I've tried the shutil library, but when I try to use it, it keeps returning attribute errors that functions within the module are undefined. This also leads me to a more general question: why does this keep occurring on the board? I get attribute errors all the time stating functions are not defined within the module, but 1) I know the module is properly written (such as the well-vetted shutil) and 2) when I open the file to check, I can see the function is defined. Any advice on either of these fronts? Thanks for all the help.

Are you running shutil on your host computer (laptop/desktop/ etc.)? By local do you mean "on your computer" or "on the SAMD51"?. I don't think shutil is available on CircuitPython unless you are using a third party library.

I am using shutil on the SAMD51 to move a file from the SD card directory to a directory on the SAMD 51. I downloaded and imported the shutil library to aid with this.

Where did you download from?
