PLUGIN USES_P075 Nextion

[ohaldi]

Hello
I downloaded the ESPEasy_ESP82xx_mega-20201130.zip.
They are about 36 .bin files
I'm like to use the Nextion NX4024T032_011 Display. In with .bin version is the plugin included?
Regards
Otto

See this list of plugins: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... al-plugins
It is in the "testing" builds.

Many thanks for your quick answer.
If I understand correctly, testing is not included in the .bin!

In the meantime, I compiled the source of ESPEasy with Arduino. I have no errors. The .bin point is generated correctly.
I added two plugins in the define_plugin_sets.h file

#ifdef PLUGIN_SET_TESTING
#define USES_P075 // Nextion
#endif

#ifdef PLUGIN_SET_EXPERIMENTAL
#define USES_P119 // BME680
#endif

Afer the download to my ESP8266 is see in devices : Environnement - BM680 but nothing about Nextion!

Just to be sure, the nightly builds are here:
https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/releases

I just looked at the ZIP file: ESPEasy_ESP82xx_mega-20201130.zip
Inside the bin directory there are numerous builds with "test" in the name, like:

ESP_Easy_mega_20201130_test_ESP8266_4M1M_VCC.bin

I flashed that version to my breadboard and it shows the Nextion plugin in the device selector.

this may be a stupid question but i'm going to ask it anyway.
would it be possible to set it up on github or wherever where you could select what plugins you want and have it spit out a compiled bin for you?
It's nothing I need, just a curious question considering posts like this above.

That's exactly what I'm working on.
I already bought a build server and have it setup for building the testbuilds I make here, mainly for pull request test builds.
My plan is to indeed offer some build service where you can select a set of plugins.
If someone else already demanded the same set, you can immediately download it, or else you have to wait till it is built.

This PR also has to do with it: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/pull/3263
My idea is that you can then simply copy a short string describing the current build and thus create a new version of exactly what you already are running.
Later the ESP should be able to submit such a string and fetch a new build if available.

Thanks a lot.
this ESP_Easy_mega_20201130_test_ESP8266_4M1M_VCC.bin is OK for the USES_P075 // Nextion.
But now I'm missing the plugin USES_P119 // BME680
Very strange that my compilation do not work!

[TD-er]

The BME680 will soon be included in the normal repository.
Maybe you can also test the linked test builds for the pending PR of that plugin?
