Have to specify the usb serial via CLI

See original GitHub issue

When I launch the app, it does not show the USB serial device in the GUI, so I have to pass it as a the -p flag in the CLI, which works…

$ ./ESPHome-Flasher -p /dev/cu.usbserial-AO009AL5 ~/Downloads/gate.bin
Using '/dev/cu.usbserial-AO009AL5' as serial port.

@Normanras I was in the /Applications/ESPHome-Flasher-1.2.0-macOS.app/Contents/MacOS folder when tyrpign that.

You can do /Applications/ESPHome-Flasher-1.2.0-macOS.app/Contents/MacOS/ESPHome-Flasher -p /dev/cu.usbserial-AO009AL5 ~/Downloads/gate.bin

where ~/Downloads/gate.bin is the path to your file & /dev/cu.usbserial-AO009AL5 is the path to your adapter.

I hope that helps
