Partition Read, Write, Erase Example

This example demonstrates how to perform partition read, write and erase operations using API functions esp_partition_read, esp_partition_write and esp_partition_erase.

Example Flow

The example uses a custom partition table, with a data partition storage used as the demo partition. For the most part the example code is well-commented so users should be able to follow along the code easily. Nevertheless, this section provides an overview of the code flow.

The partition table is searched for the storage partition. Once found, the entire partition is erased using esp_partition_erase_range. Sample data is written using esp_partition_write and read back using esp_partition_read, verifying the read and written data match. The partition is erased once again using esp_partition_erase_range, limited to the sector the sample data was written to.
