More support for i2c modules/sensors [UPDATED 25.09.2016]

[beic]

Hi there,

Is there any chance to add more i2c modules/sensors like on my list bellow?

I found a few of them on AliExpress and they seems to be wort for adding them as new plugins/devices.

These are just my toughs, but maybe someone will like the idea too, because I'm using the ESP-01 and ESP-01S modules with 1Mb, and you know, there only two data line available!

1. LM75A High-Speed Temperature Sensor

2. SI1145 UV IR Visible Sensor

3. APDS-9960 RGB and Gesture Sensor Module

4. RTC DS1307 AT24C32 Real Time Clock Module

5. MCP4725 I2C DAC Breakout Board 12-Bit DAC w/I2C Interface

6. MPR121 Breakout v12 Capacitive Touch Sensor Controller Module

7. TCA9548A 1-to-8 I2C 8-way Multi-Channel Expansion Board

8. ADS1110 16-bit ADC with Onboard Reference

To be continued...

@ beic

You did not do your homework very well.

ADS1115 is already supported since version R60.

Support for clock boards like DS1307 and DS3231 is pretty useless because over WiFi you can connect to a NTP timeserver, much more accurate than a DS1307.

Sorry, I didn't see it! I will remove it!

I just tough, for that to be able to display the current time and date on OLED 128x64 Display with ESP Easy.

Thank you!

EDIT: Ahh, I found it under menu TOOLS > ADVANCED ... Use NTP and NTP Hostname (optional: Timezone Offset), but there is only TIME shown on MAIN menu, I tough that the DATE will appear too!

The APDS-9960 would be really interesting:

The REAL question here is, what's keeping you from:
- Buying the sensor from Ali
- Build a plugin for it
- Test the plugin
- Publish the plugin

It's always easy to ask others to do your work...

Yeah, like you, using the whole project what others built...

Kind regards

Actually i've rebuild P013 to include new sonic sensors, helped test HLW8012, ArduinoEasy.
Pick a sensor and start building...

it was enough to look at GitHub to see there's already a plugin unde development in the dev11 release --> _P064_APDS9960.ino

If we all build just ONE plugin, we'll have a plugin library spanning all sensors...

Really?!? I built a few to, like SHT30 and LM75A.

Chill people I am sure you both contribute to best you can. It's not a competition... not everyone has same abilities/time to spare/energy, everyone to their abilities.

Yes, but, unfortunately Lisa can't understand that!
