Let's Control It

JR01

Thank you - trying it.

Hi, I am struggling to find documentation / or even any pointers of how to compile my own code for a target ESP8266 (say Wemos 4mb), using vscode, (with platformio extention?), where do I uncomment what I want in my code for a controller / modules, and then compile? I want to compile firmware with o...

JR01

N.B. I also created a "custom" build which uses a pre_extra_script.py.
Please have a look at that one and get some very cool ideas on how to define your own build

Where do I find it?

JR01

I finally installed vscode, as when I did a new install of pllatformio in Atom, it asked to rather use vscode 8-(. Then when I opened the .ino in vscode, it said I must convert to cpp, as it cannot do ino. Have not put in effort to understand how yet....

JR01

I see all are using VS Code.

Too heavy for me, will all wok, with platformio on Atom?

JR01

Thank you for the reply.

I think we really should make a tutorial for this, since lots and lots of people keep asking how to start developing and coding

- yes please - when you get time.

vs code ?

- I use Atom, hope it will work there as well.

Hi, I want to add C014 (homie) controller - using Arduino. The readme.md file in the releases points to links - this is the only one explaining how to do it - https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/ESPEasy#Source_code_development but it seams its old - still refers to using platform.io - or am...

From IoTPlay, too. Usd 10 per month.

Come on guys and girls, I challenge you, do it.

Makes sense!

JR01

Nice!

JR01

Hello, were any of you able to read DO with ESP?

JR01

Thank you for the update Lisa, will the code be available to us as well, and under what licence?

JR01

Well done!!!

JR01

Hello Stunteam, any movement with RFLink on ESP32?

JR01

Andreas Spies also built one... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYfbEyzT-Gs&t=43s

Hi, here is my sprinkler system, ESP8266, ESP_Easy, RaspberryPi with MQTT and Node-RED. https://github.com/IoTPlay/sprinklersystem https://github.com/IoTPlay/sprinklersystem/blob/master/images/Sprinkler_controllerA_1-Inside.jpg?raw=true https://github.com/IoTPlay/sprinklersystem/raw/master/images/Sp...

JR01

Will be a real pity....

This was goin in the right direction.

JR01

Hi, just flashed OTA with version ESPEasy_mega-20181003, see startup screen, but no Connect button to go to next screen?

Thank you!

JR01

Thank you drum, I will wait until someone get there t working.

And the other STM32 I showed? Does it have enough memory?

STM32 ARM Mini System - 72Mhz
https://www.robotics.org.za/6970622930693

JR01

Difficult to see in this forum topic which board specs will and won’t work. Ie. memory required for code, etc.

Will this board work?

STM32 ARM Mini System - 72Mhz
https://www.robotics.org.za/6970622930693

And the pycom lopy?
https://www.robotics.org.za/AF3339

JR01

Looking forward!

JR01

Something like an stm32 arm cortex, or is that too large aleady?

JR01

Instead of micropython, has anyone looked at golang’s gobot, seems they are pushing multi-platform, even has stuff for esp8266.

Setup a syslog server, on a RPi or linux server. Then point the esp to that ip, after starting the syslig server. The syslog will have all the esp events Configuring a SysLog server on Ubuntu: https://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/65683-configure-ubuntu-server-12-04-lts-as-a-syslog-server sudo nan...

JR01

Thank you all, I got it working.

the instructions on wiki letscontrolit is not that clear.

Like contributor @Domosapiens earlier on this post stated, open the directory which contains:

Code: Select all

Use File> Add Project Folder, then select the directory Source (containing .pioenvs, lib and src)

JR01

Thank you. Nope, still not working. Any other way to compile, or where are the def's carried that comes up under F7 ?

JR01

Thank you Costo. I now tried to get going with PlatformIO again. Updated atom, platformIO, etc, downloaded ESPEasy-2.0.0-dev10, went to the src file, and opened ESPEasy.ino. Pressed F7 for the 'overview of the possible versions to build', but only get 'No target found'. Does anybody know where the F...

JR01

Thank you for the professional effort!

JR01

+1 for the rig!!

JR01

Thank you Costo, I do see that hidden folder, but compiled image not there...

JR01

<Toggle Build Panel> option, then get below, looks like successful build, but where does it put the file? [Wed May 17 23:53:13 2017] Processing normal_1024 (platform: espressif8266; upload_speed: 460800; build_flags : -Wl,-Tesp8266.flash.1m128.ld -D PLUGIN_BUILD_NORMAL -D BUILD_GIT='""'; b...

JR01

Okay, I think I compiled it. I chose PIO clean (normal_1024) options, see below, it runs some scripts at the bottom, but do not find a compiled .bin file after that, does it build a .bin file? Where do search for it?

JR01

That's not the way in Atom.
Use File> Add Project Folder, then select the directory Source (containing .pioenvs, lib and src)

Thank you, that worked. Now busy compiling, want to see if I can get a .bin file to upload via the ESP OTA web interface.

JR01

Hi all, it is clear PlatformIO is pretty important going forward. I tried to read all the PlatformIO articles, and the wiki pages. They are not in one place, which makes it more difficult. I am on a Mac, have gone through all the Mac related install topics of the wiki, for instance on: https://www.l...

JR01

Fantastic, thank you !

JR01

Found a work around, a power off/on cycle sorts it out.

JR01

Hi Edwin, may I please ask for an urgent solution here, my sprinkling system is now broken, I waited a day, thinking that the 'daily flash rate' means daily', but this still does not work the next day to add the last Device?

JR01

Thanks !

JR01

Hi, Not sure if all knows the great capability of getting a json output of System, and Sensors. See the output below. Furthermore, one can getto a specific task number's details as follows: http://<ESP-host>/json?tasknr=3 QUESTION: Can we add some more details to task in Sensor, like: - task number ...

JR01

Hi, a great interface to get a json output which shows all the devices, and its output / state, can be found on

Code: Select all

<ESP-host>/json

But, no password is required for this view.

Can we add this a a change please?

JR01

Hi, just loaded v2.0.0-dev7, from v147, an ESP with 5 relays, temp, etc. Thus, had to reload all the Devices, and got same as others on this forum: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=2257&hilit=FS+%3A+Daily+flash+write+rate+exceeded%21&start=20#p12414 Now I am unable to complete a critical setup for a...

JR01

Choose BMP085, I ran same config.

JR01

I carry in MySQL the devices, and if I expect that device to be live or not. Then, I check against the once that are supposed to be live, if they are live with advanced ping test. See screen1. scr1_rhza_ESPs live check.png Screen 1: ESP live check. I write the ESP's which announces them selves on th...

Or tou could control esp from node red vihytp controls

JR01

Hi, have a pool motor with ESP attached, some distance from my wifi point. I would like the ESP to switch motor on and off, under its own control, and not have the non-availability of the wifi, cause the ESP to reboot etc. What about a rule to switch wifi off, for say up to 6 hrs, and allow local ru...

JR01

Thank you! I did not know about %systime%, and thanks for my syntax correction !

JR01

Another 'YARQ', seams like we have people in the community that have sussed Rules out... I want to use clock time as follows, but this does not seam to work, calling the same function... On Rules#Time=2 do if Clock#Time > All,10:00 do if Clock#Time < All,15:30 do Event SetPoolVarPump = 1 endif endif...

JR01

This works, thanks, did not know about using, tis is also not on wiki ?

Code: Select all

Event DoSomeAction = 1

To call another action.

Thanks !
