Any short howto how to configure the Arduino IDE for compiling the ESPEasy Mega?

I tried with the usual config that works for ESPEasy and ran into several error messages
about double libraries, then compiling is stopped.

Thanks in Advance

There will be a mega branch on the ESPEasy-platformio repository. That should enable you to just compile it with platformio without any hassle.

I'll post here when its ready.

Thank you.

As i tend to change sources myself and test things platformio is no usable alternative to self compiling.
Even if i can upload and compile own things pleaase accept that i prefer to Keep things on my own test area until they work (or get dumped

).

it would be nice if there is a short howto like it is for the standard platform.

You still can still change sources and test things.

The whole reason to use platformio is so that everyone uses the same libraries. And then you dont get the compiler errors you're complaining about.

Everyone is still free to just use the normal repository with the classic Arduino gui. Maybe someone can even create a ESPEasy-arduino repository that can be used to compile with the Arduino gui and against the correct libraries.

Keep in mind that ESPEasy-platformio is only a build-environment wrapper: It has the correct libraries and settings, but it directly uses the source code from ESPEasy via git submodule. You can point that submodule to your own fork and make pull requests etc.

Ok guys the mega environment is up and running, get it here: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEas ... /tree/mega (the readme on that page explains how)

The ESPEasyMega repository is now back in the normal repository (ESPEasy), in the mega-branch. This will be called ESPEasy 2.0.0.

Let me know if you have any problems, issue tracker for 2.0.0 is here: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/milestone/1

More details of whats going on:

Code: Select all

ESPEasy repository, master branch:  R142 -> R143 -> R144 -> R145 -> R146 -> R147 -> R148 -> (lot of pull requests/fixes/plugins merged by psy0rz) -> v1.1.0-beta10

ESPEasyMega repository of martinus:  There is just one commit here, he made a copy of R142 and probably added all changes up until R148, and made big improvements for the Mega version. 
Details are in his release notes here: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasyMega/blob/master/__ReleaseNotes.ino

To make development easier i created ESPEasy repository, mega branch: 
Its a branch of ESPEasy R148 on which i copied ESPEasyMega, without the file-renames -> v2.0.0-dev1

All development efforts will be focused on getting v2.0.0 out. Numbering will be as followed:

v2.0.0-devX: these are the current development releases, X changes rapidly so that we have binary releases that people can play with, without compiling. (Travis fixes this automatically)
v2.0.0-betaX: as soon as we think its stable/complete enough for real testing, we will start numbering beta's.
v2.0.0-rcX: release candidates
v2.0.0: This will be the first stable release (e.g. mega + more cool stuff

)

Breakdown of the version number after this:
v2.X.X:
The first number changes only on huge changes in the core framework, that are probably not backwards compatible.
The second number changes when new plugins are added or new features are added.
The last number changes for smaller improvements or fixes.

Yeah... upload it, have a github account and internet connect (I'm working offline often...)
And i want to be able to change libraries and such - impossible on a wrapper to a IDE that is hidden from me.
Sorryy, but that is useless for me.

Are these libraries etc such a secret that they have to be hidden from public?
Why not making a short howto like http://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index ... are_Upload
and a git repository with the actual libs?

psy0rz · #45 Post by **psy0rz** » 20 Feb 2017, 21:03

The libraries you need are in that repo. you dont need internet. you can also use the cli version of platformio.

psy0rz · #46 Post by **psy0rz** » 20 Feb 2017, 21:36

You can also try using the Arduino IDE:

Run: git clone --recursive https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy-platformio.git

Then the libraries are in the ESPEasy-platformio/lib dir, and the source code is in the ESPEasy-platformio/src dir.

After you put them in the usual places, you should be able to compile and upload with Arduino IDE.

I didn't try it but it should work.

psy0rz · #47 Post by **psy0rz** » 21 Feb 2017, 12:52

I understand that some people dont have the git-command and just want a zip-file that contains all the sources. I will fix that as well.

After that I will make sure people can use the Arduino IDE, and i will update the how-to's on the wiki.

Its very important to me that every one can contribute to this project as easy as possible.

This will take some time, so please be patient.

Thank you for sorting out my flashing problem on issue I logged on git within 1 hour. I flashed the beta firmware_mini.bin, on Apple Mac, using the esptool.py with command:

Code: Select all

sudo esptool.py --port /dev/cu.wchusbserial1410 write_flash 0x0 ~/Downloads/firmware_mini.bin

It is stable, and beautiful .... Thank you, well done for fast response.

Hello,

I tried it, loaded down the git repository and installed Arduino IDE on a newly installed computer so everything should be clean.
Added the board manager, libs etc as usual of course.

Compiling ends up in a "missing SSD1306.h" error. i can't find the header file anywhere so this message is correct.

Where can i find the file?

Regards
Shardan

Addendum:
I just tried to get atom and platformio to run on Win-7.
I can open the cloned file folder and files, that's it.
F7 just does nothing, it is not connected to any action in the settings.
Seems that it needs Python (v2? v3?) and maybe some more things on top?

Addendum2
Installed atom and git on my Server running SuSE Leapfrog , cloned the git.
Result: starting "atom ESPEasy-platformio" does nothing. Just the prompt comes back at once, that's all.
No error message, nothing in the log file.

Seems this needs some reworking.....

Shardan · #52 Post by **Shardan** » 22 Feb 2017, 18:47

Hello again,

meanwhile i got atom starting on my linux machine, was my fault.

But anyways..... starting "atom ESPEasy-platformio opens atom and the cloned repository.
Pressing [F7] does just nothing as with windows.

There is something missing on standard installations.

Shardan · #53 Post by **Shardan** » 22 Feb 2017, 22:07

Hello again...

The description is somewhat short about some installation points:

I managed to get platformio to run with Win-7. You have to install clang (LLVM), python 2.7.x and git.
Then open atom, go to file -> settings -> install and sear for "platformio-ide", install it.
With the first run it installed the tool chain without error messages but complaioned about missing source files.
I copied the source files manually, then it complained about libraries:
"fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git"
This appears on different libraries debending on the build (Mini...)

That's an issue that should be fixed as many people use windows.

At least i got it to work on one of my SuSE servers.
With SuSE you have to install clang (LLVM) which is not installed by default.
Then open atom, click edit -> preferences -> install and search for "platformio-IDE", install it.

Should be mentioned that the compiled files are under ./<home folder>/ESPEasy-Platformio/.pioenvs/<version>/firmware.bin
(version = dev, mini, normal or test).

Regards
Shardan

psy0rz · #54 Post by **psy0rz** » 22 Feb 2017, 23:35

thanks for trying and for all the info.

will try to make a nice windows howto on the wiki this weekend. tried it myself and there where a lot of little issues indeed.

(so far i used linux and had everything setup already)

psy0rz · #55 Post by **psy0rz** » 25 Feb 2017, 23:24

People, i made some changes, so the released zip-file has the same layout as people where used to:

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

This should allow people to use at least the Arduini IDE to compile the sources. (until I documented some more about the new stuff with platform io)

Please let me know how it works for you. (for now testing,dev and stable all have the same plugins, I still have to add plugin sets support to version 2)

I hope you will give the 2560 version some attention to (the i2c part of it)

I didnt know about this project, and for some it can be a bit confusing: We have ESPEasy mega, which is actually for the ESP8266. (I renamed it to ESPEasy version 2 for clearance)

And now it seems there is actually a port of ESPEasy for the Arduino Mega. (and it ISNT called ESPEasy Mega...wait wut?)

I dont think i have the time and interest to support that version, nor do I have practical use myself for an arduino with ethernet. It also means yet another repository to support and fix bugs on.

If someone would extend the ESPEasy code base to also support Arduino Megas (with a bunch of ifdefs), i would be interested to merge it into ESPEasy.

Offcourse its always possible someone else will continue development of EasyArduino. (please contact Martinus if you do)

Edwin

NietGiftig · #60 Post by **NietGiftig** » 26 Feb 2017, 23:11

Quite right, Arduino is a little bit obsolete with esp8266
Mega + ethernet shield cost + size cannot match the new solutions

psy0rz · #61 Post by **psy0rz** » 01 Mar 2017, 22:04

I was working on a howto for Windows when I realized that working with submodule is making things much more complex.

So i'm going to rearrange the files in the ESPEasy mega-branch in such a way that its compatible with platformio and then make a nice howto for it.

Releases will still be in the zip-file format that people are used to.

The Howto about installing platformio on windows is ready: http://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index ... Platformio

psy0rz · #62 Post by **psy0rz** » 02 Mar 2017, 23:54

Ok that escalated quickly into multiple howtos and a complete course

The links to the howtos are on the bottom of this page: http://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index ... evelopment

It explains everything about Atom, platformio, Github and pull requests.

Please let me know if its usefull and understandable.

JR01 · #63 Post by **JR01** » 03 Mar 2017, 07:43

Wow, excellent piece of work on the documentation, very clear, now I understand these concepts that have eluded me for a long time ! Thank you!

Although I saw platformio in my research more than a year ago, I did not see a need, and as Martinus went the self-build / create route on Arduino, I did not understand the need, this probably goes for others in the community as well.

On this site: http://www.ikravets.com/computer-life/p ... ergia-ides I get a nice summary of 'why platformio'.

PlatformIO Library Manager makes it extremely simple to find, install and keep libraries up-to-date.
What is more, PlatformIO is an awesome and smart cross-platform code builder. You have no need to install any IDE or compile any tool chains. PlatformIO has pre-built different development platforms including: compiler, debugger, uploader (for embedded) and many other useful tools.

It thus makes sense why you are taking us to it !

Anything else you could add to set our minds at ease of going platformio? I assume the build and compile process, and updating of libs are so much easier?

Last thing, what does the inclusion of platformio do to our GNU general public license? Does it influence that?

Thank you for your dedication and hard work, again !

psy0rz · #64 Post by **psy0rz** » 03 Mar 2017, 12:15

Ill post more later (type on phone)

just want to say that i also want to keep the current way of working with Arduino available. so people that dont like the new way do not have to worry its going to be 100% platformio only. (thats why im not yet using the library dependency functions of platformio for example)

i will test Arduino ide later and update the wiki accordingly.

andymelichar · #65 Post by **andymelichar** » 04 Mar 2017, 02:35

Anyone able to explain how the different rulesets work? Are they just more space, or can you swap entire rule sets in mega?

I.e., I could set up Ruleset #1 with time events for every half hour, and ruleset #2 with time events for once every hour. Then I can send a command to tell the firmware to operate on ruleset #1, then two days later send a command, and have it operate on ruleset #2?

Thanks!

No way to reset it other then change value on file?

psy0rz · #76 Post by **psy0rz** » 14 Mar 2017, 13:27

Yep you can just change it.

Its to protect your flash in case something goes wrong with a plugin. This way it cant write 100.000.000 times a day in such cases.

Maybe we should make the default higher though.

This is a misbehaviour of the Arduino IDE, not one from the sketch!

The following workaround works:
I've used the "Ctrl - Alt + S" (export compiled binary) comand from Arduino IDE.
It builds a -bin-File in the same folder the ESPEasy.ino resides in.
I copied the .bin to my old flash tool from the R14x-versions and renamed it to ESPEasy_R200_4096.bin
Then i was able to flash it to my testing nodeMCU without issues:

Hi,
I am a bit of a novice at playing with the ESP8266 and flashing stuff.
I have successfully flashed the V2 dev 7 using the flashtool in the download. I have tried loading up separate Arduino as in Tutorial which I couldn't really get to work right ( conflicts with exisiting arduino) so then I loaded up Atom and sort of have that working though still don't think I know how to flash correctly with that.
What I really want to do is be able to use the SHT30 temperature wemos shield and I see that there is an alpha plugin for it
https://github.com/dzikus/ESPEasyPlugin ... _SHT3X.ino
I have tried to include this and compile it along with others but no success so far. Could you please add this to one of your new testing builds ?
Thanks

hi,

its any change to continuos develop more fautures for MCP23017?

because with 12 task we are limited and mcp have 16 ports, ok i know that can control it by http but inst the same, because every guys how have sonoff relay board wih push swict inside can put all work because 1 task is for relay and other for push switch, so in my case 8 task for relay and 8 for pushswitch.
if 12 are ok so we can think about control gpio or mcpgpio by rules like this:

if [mcpgio,1]=1 or if [gpio,12]=1
and
on mcpio,1 do or on gpio,12 do

another think is have a inversed button on them.

MCP23017 its a great tool to estent gpio so why not bring more things.

appreciate a lot

I'd support this as i use several devices that have 8 switching chanels on a PCF8574 and 8 current metering channels.

But there might be a problem.

As far as i understood the tasks use up RAM which is a very limited ressource with the ESP8266.
I'm not sure if it is possible to extend the number of possible tasks without running into collisions
with other processes and their needs for RAM.

this new road is a good road for espeasy,
i follow espeasy since some early builds.

but the new way has the same different places to look for getting it going as in the old days...

looking around the forum, looking around the wiki,
and (tanks good) now looking in the github issues.

but also hard to get to know that actually only ver200-dev7 compiles ok in arduino ide.
than also getting (on windows) the libs together.
and this is called to be the same valid alternative to platform.io.

i had it compiled, but after all (like in the old days) still dazzled where to discuss bug-fixing with the devs..
forum? git-hub issues to dev7, or only binaries?....

well, lets see how this develops..
and still, like the old days: good work!!! keeep on going, devs!!

i've just noticed that the IR-library is disabled due to a bug.

When will it be back?

Regards

it wasn't actually a bug. with the new IR library we just hit our IRAM limit it seems. (and there is only 2-3k of IRAM to start with)

I created an overview of the different plugin sizes: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEas ... _sizes.txt

I'm currently trying to reduce memory usage of the various plugins, but we might have to disable some plugins by default in the next versions.

The question then is: which one(s) do we disable. only the ones that use IRAM make sense. in somecases the IRAM is used by libraries, like the neopixel libs. In that case we would have to disable all the neopixel plugins to get that memory back.

i follow espeasy since some early builds.

but the new way has the same different places to look for getting it going as in the old days...

looking around the forum, looking around the wiki,
and (tanks good) now looking in the github issues.

but also hard to get to know that actually only ver200-dev7 compiles ok in arduino ide.
than also getting (on windows) the libs together.

We're tring to do our best, but i understand that it can be a bit chaotic at times.

Do you have any suggestions on how we can make things more clear, so that we can save other people some time?

A hint or url at the right places might help a lot: the problem is that the people like me are deep into the code right now. So it gets hard to see where hints, documentation or links are needed after a certain point.

Currently we're trying to get a stable and usable version 2.0.0 for everybody to work with.
