rBoot OTA firmware updating
Built-in file system: spiffs
Built-in powerfull network and wireless modules
Built-in JSON library: ArduinoJson
HTTP, AJAX, WebSockets support
MQTT protocol based on [libemqtt] (https://github.com/menudoproblema/libemqtt)
Networking based on LWIP stack
Simple and powerfull hardware API wrappers
Based on Espressif SDK v1.3.0

Latest Release

Sming V1.4.0

Getting started

Additional needed software

Spiffy : Source included in Sming repository
[ESPtool2] (https://github.com/raburton/esp8266) esptool2

You can find more information about compilation and flashing process by reading esp8266.com forum discussion thread.

Examples

More information at Wiki Examples page.

OTA application update based on rBoot

void OtaUpdate() {
	
	uint8 slot;
	rboot_config bootconf;
	
	Serial.println("Updating...");
	
	// need a clean object, otherwise if run before and failed will not run again
	if (otaUpdater) delete otaUpdater;
	otaUpdater = new rBootHttpUpdate();
	
	// select rom slot to flash
	bootconf = rboot_get_config();
	slot = bootconf.current_rom;
	if (slot == 0) slot = 1; else slot = 0;

	// flash rom to position indicated in the rBoot config rom table
	otaUpdater->addItem(bootconf.roms[slot], ROM_0_URL);

	// and/or set a callback (called on failure or success without switching requested)
	otaUpdater->setCallback(OtaUpdate_CallBack);

	// start update
	otaUpdater->start();
}

Simple GPIO input/output

#define LED_PIN 2 // GPIO2
...
pinMode(LED_PIN, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(LED_PIN, HIGH);

Connect to WiFi and start Serial communication

Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Hello Sming! Let's do smart things.");

WifiStation.enable(true);
WifiStation.config("LOCAL-NETWORK", "123456789087"); // Put you SSID and Password here

Read DHT22 sensor

#include <Libraries/DHT/DHT.h> // This is just popular Arduino library!

#define WORK_PIN 0 // GPIO0
DHT dht(WORK_PIN, DHT22);

void init()
{
	dht.begin();

	float h = dht.readHumidity();
	float t = dht.readTemperature();
}

HTTP client

HttpClient thingSpeak;
...
thingSpeak.downloadString("http://api.thingspeak.com/update?key=XXXXXXX&field1=" + String(sensorValue), onDataSent);

void onDataSent(HttpClient& client, bool successful)
{
	if (successful)
		Serial.println("Successful!");
	else
		Serial.println("Failed");
}

Embedded HTTP WebServer

server.listen(80);
server.addPath("/", onIndex);
server.addPath("/hello", onHello);
server.setDefaultHandler(onFile);

Serial.println("=== WEB SERVER STARTED ===");
Serial.println(WifiStation.getIP());

...

void onIndex(HttpRequest &request, HttpResponse &response)
{
	TemplateFileStream *tmpl = new TemplateFileStream("index.html");
	auto &vars = tmpl->variables();
	vars["counter"] = String(counter);
	vars["IP"] = WifiStation.getIP().toString();
	vars["MAC"] = WifiStation.getMAC();
	response.sendTemplate(tmpl);
}

void onFile(HttpRequest &request, HttpResponse &response)
{
	String file = request.getPath();
	if (file[0] == '/')
		file = file.substring(1);
		
	response.setCache(86400, true);
	response.sendFile(file);
}
