# Finding Partitions Example
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This example demonstrates how to use the partition API functions `esp_partition_find` and `esp_partition_find_first` to search the device partition table.
|
||
|
|
These functions return the matching partitions given a set of constraints. By constraints we simply mean
|
||
|
|
properties that returned results should match - notably partition type, subtype and label/name. In the case of `esp_partition_find_first`, the first matching instance is returned;
|
||
|
|
for `esp_partition_find`, an iterator is returned iterating over matching instances.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Example Flow
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The example uses a [custom partition table](./partitions_example.csv). The first part uses `esp_partition_find_first` to search for partition instances
|
||
|
|
using two constraints - type and subtype. However, the partition table contains partitions with same type/subtype combination. In order to differentiate these partitions,
|
||
|
|
a third constraint - the label, is specified.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The second part shows how to iterate over partitions that match certain constraints, manually checking the properties of each iterated partition.
|
||
|
|
The iterator is obtained using `esp_partition_find` and is released after its use to avoid memory leaks.
