ESP-IDF + Arduino + Bluepad32 template app

discord

logo

This is a template application to be used with Espressif IoT Development Framework.

Please check ESP-IDF docs for getting started instructions.

Requires ESP-IDF v4.4.x (don't use 5.x!)

Includes the following ESP-IDF components, with a pre-configured sdkconfig file:

How to compile it

Clone the template project:

git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/ricardoquesada/esp-idf-arduino-bluepad32-template.git my_project

After cloning the template you have two options:

  • A) Using PlatformIO (easier)
  • B) or Using ESP-IDF (requires more steps)

A) Using PlatformIO + ESP-IDF

open_project

  1. Open Visual Studio Code, select the PlatformIO plugin
  2. Click on "Pick a folder", a select the recently cloned "my_project" folder

That's it. The PlatformIO will download the ESP-IDF toolchain and its dependencies.

It might take a few minutes to download all dependencies. Be patient.

build_project

After all dependencies were installed:

  1. Click on one of the pre-created boards, like esp32-s3-devkit-1. Or edit platformio.ini file, and add your own.
  2. Click on build

monitor_project

Finally, click on "Upload and Monitor":

  • It will upload your sketch
  • And will enter into "monitor" mode: You can see and use the console. Try typing help on the console.

or B) Using ESP-IDF

For Windows

  1. Install ESP-IDF v4.4. For further info, read: ESP-IDF Getting Started for Windows

    • Either the Online or Offline version should work
    • When asked which components to install, don't change anything. Default options are Ok.
    • When asked whether ESP can modify the system, answer "Yes"
  2. Launch the "ESP-IDF v4.4 CMD" (type that in the Windows search box)

  3. Compile it

    # Compile it
    cd my_project
    idf.py build
    
    # Flash + open debug terminal
    idf.py flash monitor

For Linux / macOS

  1. Requirements and permissions

    Install ESP-IDF dependencies (taken from here):

    # For Ubuntu / Debian
    sudo apt-get install git wget flex bison gperf python3 python3-pip python3-setuptools cmake ninja-build ccache libffi-dev libssl-dev dfu-util libusb-1.0-0

    And in case you don't have permissions to open /dev/ttyUSB0, do: (taken from here)

    # You MUST logout/login (or in some cases reboot Linux) after running this command
    sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER
  2. Install and setup ESP-IDF

    # Needs to be done just once
    # Clone the ESP-IDF git repo
    mkdir ~/esp && cd ~/esp
    git clone -b release/v4.4 --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git
    
    # Then install the toolchain
    cd ~/esp/esp-idf
    ./install.sh
  3. Compile the template

    Clone the template:

    # Do it everytime you want to start a new project
    # Clone the template somewhere
    mkdir ~/src && cd ~/src
    git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/ricardoquesada/esp-idf-arduino-bluepad32-template.git my_project

    Export the ESP-IDF environment variables in your shell:

    # Do it everytime you open a new shell
    # Optional: add it in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile
    source ~/esp/esp-idf/export.sh

    And finally compile and install your project.

    # Compile it
    cd ~/src/my_project
    idf.py build
    
    # Flash + open debug terminal
    idf.py flash monitor

Using 3rd party Arduino libraries

To include 3rd party Arduino libraries in your project, you have to:

  • Add them to the components folder.
  • Add CMakeLists.txt file inside the component's folder

Let's use a real case as an example:

Example: Adding ESP32Servo

Suppose you want to use ESP32Servo project. The first thing to notice is that the source files are placed in the src folder. We have to create a CMakeLists.txt file that tells ESP-IDF to look for the sources in the src folder.

Example:

# 1) We clone ESP32Servo into components folder
cd components
git clone https://github.com/madhephaestus/ESP32Servo.git
cd ESP32Servo

And now create these files inside components/ESP32Servo folder:

# 2) Create CMakeLists.txt file
# Copy & paste the following lines to the terminal:
cat << EOF > CMakeLists.txt
idf_component_register(SRC_DIRS "src"
                    INCLUDE_DIRS "src"
                    REQUIRES "arduino")
EOF

Finally, update the dependencies in the main/CMakeLists.txt. E.g:

cd main
edit CMakeLists.txt

...and append ESP32Servo to REQUIRES. The main/CMakeLists.txt should look like this:

idf_component_register(SRCS "${srcs}"
                    INCLUDE_DIRS "."
                    REQUIRES "${requires}" "ESP32Servo")

And that's it. Now you can include ESP32Servo from your code. E.g:

// Add this include in your arduino_main.cpp file
#include <ESP32Servo.h>

IDE

Arduino IDE is not supported, but you can use Visual Studio Code + ESP-IDF plugin.

You can do:

  • All the regular Visual Studio Code regular features
  • ...plus configure, build, flash and monitor your project
  • ...and much more

ide

Subjective opinion: VSCode + ESP-IDF plugin is muuuuuch better than Arduino IDE. Highly recommended!
