Releases#
Installation instructions updated on how to find the device after wifi has been configured.
v0.9.0#
Added one http push target that uses HTTP GET. This can be used with ubidots or blynk api’s.
Added function to test push targets from configuration page. It will send data and show the return code as a first step.
Added documetation on how to integrate with Blynk.io using http get.
Config page now shows the estimated runtime for the device (based on a full battery and previous average runtime)
Experimental release of firmware using an esp32 instead of esp8266
Merged index and device pages into one so that all the needed information is available on the index page.
Removed api for device (/api/device), it’s now merged into the /api/status api.
Test function in format editor now uses real data and not fake.
Split push configuration into two sections to make it fit better on smaller devices
Updated WifiManager and DoubleReset libraries
Updated esp32 target with littlefs support
Updated esp32 target with BLE send support (it will simulate a tilt)
Mounted esp32 d1 mini mounted to a iSpindle PCB 4.0 (CherryPhilip) which worked fine.
Documented hardware changes on esp32
Default mDNS name is now shown on WIFI setup page.
Added option to manually update/downgrade firmware under hardware settings.
BUG: Corrected PIN for voltage read on ESP32
BUG: If using plato and not gravity formula was defined the value was set to null.
BUG: Temp format name was incorrect in iSpindle format causing receiver to incorrectly read temperature.
BUG: Temperature sensor adjusmemnt value was not handled properly when using Farenheight.
BUG: If the ID was to low the device id could end up with a leading space causing errors in data post. Added leading zero to ID.
BUG: Entering wifi setup and a timeout occured the wifi settings could be deleted.
v0.8.0#
Added option to set http headers (2 per http endpoint), these can be used for other http formats than json (default) and for adding authentication headers.
Added possibility to view last 10 errors on device page.
Added possibility to define token parameter used in iSpindle format.
Added instructions for how to configure integration with Brewspy
Added instructions for how to configure integration with Thingspeak
Added option to do a factory reset via API.
Added logging of the runtime, how long a measurement take (last 10 are stored). This can be used to check how good the wifi connection is and estimate the lifetime when on battery. Check the device page in the UI for this information.
Refactored code to free up more RAM to make SSL more stable.
Before connecting to an SSL endpoint the device will try to use a new SSL feature called MFLN (Maximum Fragment Length Negotiation) that allow us to reduce the buffers from 16k to 2k. This can make a huge difference on a device with only 40k RAM. Not all servers might support this feature.
Updated documentation pages.
Tested batterylife, 47 days using an update frequency of 5 min
v0.7.1#
Added instructions for how to configure integration with Fermentrack
Added instructions for how to configure integration with Ubidots
Added instructions for how to configure integration with HomeAssistant
Added instructions for how to configure integration with Brewers Friend (not verified)
BUG: Defined mqtt port was ignored, used default values.
BUG: Extended length of HTTP url fields from 100 to 120 chars.
BUG: Fixed issue with default template so it now includes the device name correctly.
v0.7.0#
Latest stable version. Release v0.7 on Github
SSL support for HTTP targets
SSL support for MQTT targets
SSL support for OTA
Added support for Plato
Added error handling for calibration page.
Added experimental target ESP32 (using an ESP32 D1 Mini which is pin compatible with ESP8266). Not really usable since wifi connection is extreamly slow with current Arduino releases (3-8 seconds).
Added experimental format editor so users can customize their data format used for pushing data. This will reduce the need for custom push targets. As long as the service is supporting http or https then the data format can be customized.
Added check so that pushing data is not done if memory is low (this will avoid crashes)
MQTT topic has been removed from config (handled via format templates)
MQTT port port number added. Port over 8000 will activate SSL.
Breaking change: To simplify the internal structure the temp sensor adjustment is now stored in C. So if you have enabled this function using F you will need to go into the configuration and update the adjustment factor again (hardware config).
Breaking change: The MQTT push option has been changed to match the iSpindle behaviour. If the behaviour in v0.6 is wanted this can be done via the format editor.
v0.6.0#
Changed the wifi manager and refactored wifi.cpp
LED is now turned on when Wifi Portal is open
Refactored main.cpp to make it easier to read
Tested runtime performance
Improved documentation
Added warning on config page when sleep is <300
Enabled selection of gyro temperature sensor under Hardware settings
Added warning when short sleep interval and gyro temp is enabled
Added support for MQTT
Bug: MPU init sometimes caused crash during startup.
v0.5.0#
Added feature to calcuate formula on device
Total rewrite of documentation
WIFI settings are now stored in config file
Defined version numbers for all dependant libraries to avoid updates breaking build.
Cleanup of code
Refactor code from C to C++
