Basic Web Skeleton

Introduction

Basic application that can be used as a start point for some useful App.

Features:

  • can setup wifi ssid and wifi password for STA (wifi client) mode either from own AP or as connected to some wifi network

  • demonstrate new way of catching wif-events with WifiEvents class

  • if preconfigured wifi network is unreachable start AP named TyTherm with hardcoded password (see source)

  • can enable/disable STA (wifi client) mode

  • own AP autodisable after successful connection to preconfigured wifi network

  • form population and sending is done with json+ajax

  • demonstrate usage of getting raw http request body to be processed as json

  • demonstrate how to fill html template on client side with more flexible than Smings Templating - JavaScript

App called TyTherm because it is base for TinY TermOmeter :)

FlashString

This sample also demonstrates how to use FlashString maps as an alternative to using SPIFFS for serving files.

To test this out, build the application without a filesystem image:

make HWCONFIG=standard ENABLE_FLASHSTRING_MAP=1

See webserver.cpp for the details.
