(simple) Enhancement for GPIOs in WebUI

[moelski]

Hi devs,

most of the time I use a NodeMCU board and sometimes a ESP-12F D1 Mini. These boards are not labled with GPIO numbers - they use the digital Pin number.
And when you open the dropdown box in ESPEasy you get GPIO. So I alsways have some pinout maps in my Onenote for comparison. Not that funny ...

Looking in the sources there is a point where the dropdown box is populated : void addPinSelect(...)
With some little changes the information is much more usable (I think ):

Code: Select all

void addPinSelect(boolean forI2C, String& str, String name,  int choice)
{
  String options[14];
  options[0] = F(" ");
  options[1] = F("GPIO-0 (D3 - Pullup)");
  options[2] = F("GPIO-1 (D10)");
  options[3] = F("GPIO-2 (D4 - Pullup)");
  options[4] = F("GPIO-3 (D9)");
  options[5] = F("GPIO-4 (D2 - I2C SDA)");
  options[6] = F("GPIO-5 (D1 - I2C SCL)");
  options[7] = F("GPIO-9 (D11 - Flash HOLD)");
  options[8] = F("GPIO-10 (D12 - Flash WP)");
  options[9] = F("GPIO-12 (D6 - SPI MISO)");
  options[10] = F("GPIO-13 (D7 - SPI MOSI)");
  options[11] = F("GPIO-14 (D5 - SPI SCK)");
  options[12] = F("GPIO-15 (D8 - SPI CS)");
  options[13] = F("GPIO-16 (D0)");

See the attached picture for the result.

I put also some default usages in the text (SPI, I2C, Flash, ....).
Using this dropdown box is much much easier on boards like the NodeMCU.

And hey it´s only a little bit of extra text So maybe you can add it to the master of espeasy?

cool.
+1,

i use the wemos D1 mini (like some others do.)

there were some post, where errors occured only by another different pin-numbering through wemos.
it integrated, ESPeasy could again a little be easier..

Hi,

very cool +1

Very useful! Would save time and errors

I think having the (Dx) names will help.
But adding default function names likely raises more questions than answers.
It now looks like GPIO-16 is the only free pin to use for generic things like controlling a relay.

Hi martinus,

I´ve created a pull request for this "Feature".
Having the digital pin number would be a first step
