Hello,
When I run platformio.exe run --target fuses, PIO gets output Do not know how to make File target 'fuses' (D:\.Dokumenty\PlatformIO\atMega_Therm\fuses).
How can I use this?
Thx
What is the platformio.ini for this project?
I make everything copy&paste from docs with changed f_cpu and fuses.
My files:
platformio.ini
[env:ATmega328P]
platform = atmelavr
board = ATmega328P
framework = arduino
board_build.f_cpu = 8000000UL
lib_deps =
OneWire
DallasTemperature
extra_scripts = extra_script.py
and extra_script.py
Import('env')
env.Replace(FUSESCMD="avrdude $UPLOADERFLAGS -e -Ulock:w:0x3F:m -Uhfuse:w:0xDA:m -Uefuse:w:0xFD:m -Ulfuse:w:0xE2:m")
And retuns some warn
I can can confirm that this does not work as itās shown in the documentation.
platformio.ini and extra_script.py with empty firmware logic also gives me
pio run -t fuses

@ivankravets Is that reproducable on your side? Has the command maybe changed?

It does work for board uno.
So it seems to make a difference if the board definition declares fuses (like uno) or if it doesnāt (like ATmega328P).

Yeah, I tried it out also but on a pro8MHzatmega328 and it seemed like it would work fine, but I didnāt have the programmer hooked up so it then failed to set/read the fuses (which I expected).
I have the same issue as [Mikolaj98p] or [maxgerhardt]. Are there any hints to solve this issue. My platformio.ini is set-up for Attiny85 with arduino framework, nothing special.
[env:release]
platform = atmelavr
board = attiny85
board_build.mcu = attiny85
board_build.f_cpu = 8000000L
framework = arduino
upload_protocol = usbasp
; each flag in a new line
upload_flags =
-Pusb
; to override default fuse with custom fuse settings use an extra script
extra_scripts = fuse_settings.py
With the introduction of the fuses target, it looks like the fuse values need to be configured like so in your platformio.ini:
; Arduino Pro Mini Atmega328 8Mhz
board_fuses.hfuse = 0xDA
board_fuses.lfuse = 0xFF
board_fuses.efuse = 0xFD
You may not even need the extra_scripts helper any moreā¦ worth commenting that out and tryingā¦ e.g. pio run -t fuses or the Set fuses project task (Iād try it myself but donāt have willing victim or programmer handy atm).
I can confirm that it works as you wrote. I made some trials. Now everything needed for configuration is embedded in the platformio.ini - fantastic. Many thx for immediate help and support

Fantastic 
Means I can retire the extra_script Iāve been using the next time I need to do the fuses!
Doesnāt work for me 
platformio.ini :
[env:attiny85]
platform = atmelavr
board = attiny85
board_build.f_cpu = 8000000L
board_fuses.hfuse = 0xDF
board_fuses.lfuse = 0xE2
upload_protocol = stk500v2
; each flag in a new line
upload_flags =
-Pusb
But fuses are not set:

avrdude done. Thank you.
Anything I made wrong?
Are you actually setting the fuses? i.e. running the Set Fuses or Upload using Programmer and Set Fuses task? As the fuses should not be set during a normal upload.

Ok. I didnāt know that you need a special task for this purpose.
I thought this would be done in a ānormalā upload if the additional lines with the fuse settings are defined in the platformio.ini file.
Running the special task āSet Fusesā works.
Thanks for the fast help, but I could not derive this information from the docuā¦

During a ānormalā run of avrdude, it never sets the fusesā¦ IIRCā¦ thatās why it also says āsafemodeā in relation to the fuses. But it is worth mentioning that in the platformio docs also, as it is somewhat unclear if youāre not familar with the behaviour of the underlying tools 
If youāve come from Arduino IDE land, this is why you use the āBurn Bootloaderā command on new parts (even those like the attiny85 which have no bootloader)ā¦ as thatās the only time avrdude is run in āset the fusesā mode (or is that ālight the fusesā?).
Correct. I like the platformio IDE very much (as it is a ārealā IDE in comparison with the Arduino IDE). And it is quite intuitive to use. Just setting the fuses was not that clear to me. The only thing Iām missing now is some kind of simulator (like in AVRStudio). But maybe it is also already there and I was just too impatient to find out how it worksā¦
Hi all.
Maybe iām wrong, but i canāt no longer see āSet fusesā option in Platformio Tasksā¦
Is it possible it was removed from that menĆ¹ with new 2.0.1 Platformio??
What tasks does it have in the env:nanoatmega3283t environment?
Sorryā¦ WHat do you mean?
Sorry, iām a stupid 
ā¦ i didnāt see all the other commands in the bottom.
Many thanks.
