To use as a component of ESP-IDF
=================================================
## esp32-arduino-lib-builder
For a simplified method, see [lib-builder](lib_builder.md)
## Installation
- Download and install [esp-idf](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf)
- Create blank idf project (from one of the examples)
- in the project folder, create a folder called components and clone this repository inside
```bash
mkdir -p components && \
cd components && \
git clone https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32.git arduino && \
cd arduino && \
git submodule update --init --recursive && \
cd ../.. && \
idf.py menuconfig
```
- ```idf.py menuconfig``` has some Arduino options
- "Autostart Arduino setup and loop on boot"
- If you enable this options, your main.cpp should be formated like any other sketch
```arduino
//file: main.cpp
#include "Arduino.h"
void setup(){
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop(){
Serial.println("loop");
delay(1000);
}
```
- Else you need to implement ```app_main()``` and call ```initArduino();``` in it.
Keep in mind that setup() and loop() will not be called in this case.
If you plan to base your code on examples provided in [esp-idf](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tree/master/examples), please make sure move the app_main() function in main.cpp from the files in the example.
```arduino
//file: main.cpp
#include "Arduino.h"
extern "C" void app_main()
{
initArduino();
pinMode(4, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(4, HIGH);
//do your own thing
}
```
- "Disable mutex locks for HAL"
- If enabled, there will be no protection on the drivers from concurently accessing them from another thread/interrupt/core
- "Autoconnect WiFi on boot"
- If enabled, WiFi will start with the last known configuration
- Else it will wait for WiFi.begin
- ```idf.py -p <your-board-serial-port> flash monitor``` will build, upload and open serial monitor to your board
## Logging To Serial
If you are writing code that does not require Arduino to compile and you want your `ESP_LOGx` macros to work in Arduino IDE, you can enable the compatibility by adding the following lines after your includes:
```cpp
#ifdef ARDUINO_ARCH_ESP32
#include "esp32-hal-log.h"
#endif
```
## FreeRTOS Tick Rate (Hz)
You might notice that Arduino-esp32's `delay()` function will only work in multiples of 10ms. That is because, by default, esp-idf handles task events 100 times per second.
To fix that behavior you need to set FreeRTOS tick rate to 1000Hz in `make menuconfig` -> `Component config` -> `FreeRTOS` -> `Tick rate`.
## Compilation Errors
As commits are made to esp-idf and submodules, the codebases can develop incompatibilities which cause compilation errors. If you have problems compiling, follow the instructions in [Issue #1142](https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/issues/1142) to roll esp-idf back to a known good version.
