Support for Lilygo T5-4.7 e-paper device

Closed this issue · 4 comments

Adding support for Lilygo e-paper T5 device.

So far tried few examples, and this one mostly works:
https://www.reddit.com/r/homeassistant/comments/sdx5gg/yet_another_lilygo_t5_eink_esphome_dashboard/

Adapted to my setup, changed language to English, but still more work is needed.

Problem with some bootloop/panic in ESPHome we were having on stream looks like falls down to this:

  - source:
      type: git
      url: https://github.com/kaweksl/esphome
      ref: dev
    components:
      - lilygo_t5_47_battery 
      - lilygo_t5_47_display

A T-5 still doesn't have native ESPHome support, we need to use one of the available external sources for components.
Display one works OK, but when I pull data related entities, I get panic/bootloop.
For example:
//it.printf(xRes - pad, yRes - pad/2, id(font_small), TextAlign::BASELINE_RIGHT, "%.2fV/%.0f%%", id(batt_volt).voltage->state, id(batt).state);
If enabled this will crash the device.
Maybe there is a workaround but I didn't find it for now.

Following files are used my my version of the project - based on folder location:

/esphome

  • common.hr
  • t5.yaml
  • Google_Sans_Bold.ttf
  • Google_Sans_Medium.ttf
  • materialdesignicons-webfont.ttf

/entities/binary_sensors

  • balcony_temp_falling.yaml
  • balcony_temp_rising.yaml

/entities/templates

  • distance_andrej.yaml
  • distance_mirta.yaml
