Development setup guide (linux/mac)

Important

The last stable and tested version of the code is in branch main. Ongoing developements in develop

Embedded software

To setup the environment, you need:

• VSCode with PlatformIO extension
• Install the espressif32 platform in PIO
• install node.js (and npm)

The project is configured to deal with separate environments for each module so don't use the usual PIO build/upload buttons at the bottom of vscode, these will likely not work.

To compile/upload, use the npm commands from vs code terminal (which are just shortcuts for pio CLI commands, see package.json) For eg, you can run: npm run full:motion_rev1_1 to build and upload the Firware to a Pipo motion.

Use module build flags as necessary: "motion_rev1_1", "analog_rev1_1", "range_rev1_1"

UI

The web UI is built with svelte.

• From the web-config directory, install the dependencies: npm install
• Run development or build commands (see package.json)

Build example

Compilation/upload Steps for module "motion":

• [optional] Rebuild UI web page files: npm run build:web
• Build module filesystem: npm run build:fs:motion_rev1_1
• Build firmware: npm run build:motion_rev1_1
• Put the module in receive mode: maintain boot clicked while clicking reset once, then release boot.
• Upload firmware: npm run upload:motion_rev1_1
• Upload filesystem: npm run upload:fs_rev1_1
• Hit reset on the module.

You can also rebuild/upload everything at once: 'npm run full:motion_rev1_1'.

Roadmap

There are plans to make this project more flexible to be easily portable and usable on any common esp32-s3 dev-board to build various types of sensing devices. If you are interested to contribute to this effort, let me know !
