The way forward

[psy0rz]

Ok i've pretty much have things up and running.

Have a look at the README over here to see whats going on: https://github.com/psy0rz/ESPEasy/blob/master/README.md

I've already merged a pull request: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/pull/96

If you guys want to test to see if everything is working like you would expect, that would be great.

Please let me know what you think,
Edwin

I have contact with Martinus and access to the main repository. Fortunately he will stay involved with the project, but currently doesn't have the time to do any real coding. So he'll be on the background (for now).

I'll keep you posted.

Wow, thats really great news!

Good to hear you will take over the work of Martinus, and i wish yo a lot of success.

Hi,

Your efforts are very appreciated, it would be so sad if the project were to die, it's simply too good for that

Hi,

I'm not a very experienced programmer but get by, I would like to help maintain the wiki.

Awesome! it also would be nice if you could check if all the plugins have a wiki page. for the plugins that dont have one (especially the playground ones i expect), you could perhaps search for info on the forum and link the wiki page to it. (or even create a wiki page for it, if the info is complete)

Hallo Leute,

really great news to see this project going on.
Is there a place where i / we can report bugs and feature request?

regards Matze

Hi,

I asked Martinus to enable the github issue tracker. Until that time, you can use the temporary issue tracker here: https://github.com/psy0rz/ESPEasy/issues

[vorsselmansP]

Good Job Psy

How far are you in gettting all the permissions for the Forum and Wiki and Github?

I would gladly help where i can in supporting this project. I just recently discovered it and it has everthing to get up and running with the ESP module

Maybe we can start a thread for all the supporters that want to help out and divide some tasks

[Shardan]

Same from me.

As I don't have actual programming knowledge my focus would be
on hardware, and Wiki. As i'm a native German speaker a German
translation of the wiki pages would be possible too.

Regards
Shardan

Hi all,
Edwin, thanks for stepping in.
I am also available for testing and revieuwing the wiki.
Furthermore I would like to continue to enhance my programming skills by making prototypes of plugins. Is that still possible in the new setup?

Some other question. How do the relases in ESPEasy-platformio relate to those mentioned in ESPEasy?
And, can you help me understanding the Platdormio way of live in a more low level language?

Thanks

I will try to explain all those things on the wiki, when i'm ready with the basics of the new repostirories.

Offcourse developing plugins will stay possible. Getting plugins into the final release will be easier from now on: A plugin can be in stable, testing or development mode. We release firmware for each of those plugin sets. So people can chose if they just want the stable plugins or more.

Meanwhile i've uploaded a new update with a few improvements. Most notably the zip file has the same layout as people where used to with Martinus.


Its here: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEas ... 2.0.0-dev2

[BertB]

Thanks a lot. Can't wait to learn more.

[psy0rz]

Ok i just finshed a lot of tutorials, explaining everything about platformio and github.

They are at the bottom of this page: http://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index ... evelopment

[psy0rz]

In the meanwhile i also fixed building in Arduino IDE again and updated the wiki.

Use at least v2.0.0-dev7 and the changes i made here: https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/inde ... are_Upload

Hey all

First of all, thanks to Edwin for jumping in. We sure need to keep this going as it has been such a fun platform to play with and use. I've been using this with OpenHAB for quite a while now, building addons and automating a lot of the stuff at home like my garage door, lights, security system, pool, spa etc just to name a few.

Like most of the members, I'm not a big time programmer, but can definitely help with testing, debugging and managing wiki. Do let me know know how I can help.

Cheers!
Benny
