convert familamp to esp easy

[bobbybeans]

Hey guys
I found this project before chirstmas and I have it all setup with my 2 particle photons that I had laying around doing nothing
https://github.com/Here-Be-Dragons/familamp
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUX5NEsEXrw

got it functioning great with those
they use the publish and subscribe of similar to mqtt
however.... they are 20£ each which is way to expensive for me if I want to make more than 2. I know that money is not really going to the chip its going to the constant dev and the web IDE. However evetually I see them moving on from this (maybe) and these will be useless as they no longer would support them and would want you to buy their new products. I digress.
What I would like to do is take this idea and implement it into esp easy I believe this can be done as MQTT is already built into it. and there are neopixel plugins already like P_101,P_117,P_121,P_122,P_123
The only thing different I believe is I would have to do is setup node red to react with scripts and telling the esp's to change color instead of the esp to do the processing. the reason I would do this instead of having the ESP process it is, I suck hard at coding
I am rambling sorry but here is my question/problem now

I compiled esp r148 with P117. I had to change some items within the code of that plugin as it look like it used to be labelled P_110. got it to compile and flashed it setup the plugin. But now I don't know what commands to issuse it example 192.168.0.50/control?cmd=neo,10,25,25,25
All references I can find on this forum are for the wifi candle that is in progress and I tried looking through the code but couldn't find any comment (and I'm terrible at coding)

does anyone know what the commands are for this plugin? or should I be using the wifi candle one and issue commands to it ?
or does anybody want to help me converting it? as I want to make many of these for my family

any ideas? or even ideas on how to figure out how to read the src to figure out which commands are needed ?

if you want to do development, it would be best to start with latest git version: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy (mega branch)

to see the commands a plugin support have a look at the following position in the code:

Code: Select all

case PLUGIN_WRITE:

you can see an example here: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEas ... 2.ino#L110

WoW. Nice project concept this is.
I have previously ported few Photon projects to ESP8266,
and let me tell you it was somewhat hard the first time I did it for a medium complexity project.
So you can contact me if you are still looking for someone to get the job done
