Example: Blink a LED
Like in the Arduino case one of the first thinks to try it is to blink an LED.
The following link contains the code for blink an LED.
Materials:
The following link contains the code for blink an LED.
Materials:
- ESP-01 - or other version
- LED
- SERIAL to USB
If you have my setup described here
1. put the the archive into this directory
/opt/Espressif/ESP8266_SDK
2. untar the file
tar -xvf blinky.tar
3. enter in the app directory
cd blinky
4. compile the code
make clean ; make.
5. Upload the resulting files ( from the firmware directory) to your ESP after this steps
5.1 Unplug the VCC power pin
5.2 Connect the GPIO0 pin to ground
5.3.Use the command to write the firmware
./burnESP
Anatomy of the code
The main application file is the user_main.c file located in
/opt/Espressif/ESP8266_SDK/blinky/user
The file content is:
#include "ets_sys.h"
#include "osapi.h"
#include "gpio.h"
#include "os_type.h"
#include "user_config.h"
#define user_procTaskPrio 0
#define user_procTaskQueueLen 1
os_event_t user_procTaskQueue[user_procTaskQueueLen];
static void user_procTask(os_event_t *events);
static volatile os_timer_t some_timer;
void some_timerfunc(void *arg)
{
//Do blinky stuff
if (GPIO_REG_READ(GPIO_OUT_ADDRESS) & BIT2)
{
//Set GPIO2 to LOW - TURN OFF the LED
gpio_output_set(0, BIT2, BIT2, 0);
}
else
{
//Set GPIO2 to HIGH - TURN ON the LED
gpio_output_set(BIT2, 0, BIT2, 0);
}
}
//Do nothing function
static void ICACHE_FLASH_ATTR user_procTask(os_event_t *events)
{
os_delay_us(10);
}
//Init function
void ICACHE_FLASH_ATTR user_init()
{
// Initialize the GPIO subsystem.
gpio_init();
//Set GPIO2 to output mode
PIN_FUNC_SELECT(PERIPHS_IO_MUX_GPIO2_U, FUNC_GPIO2);
//Set GPIO2 low
gpio_output_set(0, BIT2, BIT2, 0);
//Disarm timer
os_timer_disarm(&some_timer);
//Setup timer
os_timer_setfn(&some_timer, (os_timer_func_t *)some_timerfunc, NULL);
//Arm the timer, &some_timer is the pointer 1000 is the fire time in ms
//0 for once and 1 for repeating timer
os_timer_arm(&some_timer, 1000, 1);
//Start os task
system_os_task(user_procTask, user_procTaskPrio,user_procTaskQueue, user_procTaskQueueLen);
}
and is pretty much self explanatory.
1. Include the necessary headers. See that user_config.h is empty so if you can use this app as a skeleton for your future applications.
2. In user_init() function the GPIO is initialized, GPIO2 is set up as an output pin and is set
to 0 (LOW, GND).
3. A timer is defined (some_timer) and initialized and the callback function is set to be called every 1000ms (1sec) interval.
4. Callback function some_timerfunc is doing all the stuff, if the LED is ON turn it to OFF,
otherwise turn the LED ON.
If you want to add extra functionality check this post for how to have arduino like functions
to manipulate your GPIO.
Happy codding !!!
