Help With Integrating Wifi Manager into Sketch

Actually I thought you were waiting for your ESP8266 to arrive but it appears it might just be the relay.

In that case you can turn the “imaginary” relay on and off now with the API calls. Perhaps just wire up an LED to the ESP or change pins and use the inbuilt LED.

They are all in one box from LCSC and JLCPCB so unfortunately, I do not yet have the ESP8266 (esp01 in this case). Also, I didn’t feel like spending $40 for DHL shipping, meaning that I am stuck with S.F. Express Economy which takes 8-15 days or an average of 9-10 days from my experience.

Is this something available on the public domain because I would happily read more about it to see how I could integrate these widgets into my own code?

Best,

Yes, it’s called Blynk.

Just open the app and start adding the widgets I mentioned without using an ESP8266.

Now that’s a very bad idea. Forget about ESP-01 and use NodeMCU or Wemos Mini D1 instead.

Well, it’s a bit late for that as my circuit board is already based around the esp-01 and I don’t feel like either creating an adapter or re-drawing the board and reordering.

Not necessarily in this case… the ESP-01 is better suited (smaller, less power needs) to embed into a custom PCB project (either via socket or even directly soldering as a thru pin component) than a Wemos or NodeMCU.

Once initially programed, it is perfectly capable to leave alone or reprogram via OTA

Only if @Costas releases a QR :wink: otherwise we have to make our own. But it is a nice idea for a fun Blynk demo. I know I use deviceless projects to quickly test out some widget issues as I read about them in the forum; This has become even easier since sharing vPins across widgets was made available.

Android.

V2 is Terminal
V3 is proximity widget named “Alarm”.

So the Eventor below looks for proximity to go high and sends an email and PUSH message. Plus sends some text to the terminal, all without an MCU.

In the screenshot above the word “Police” is truncated to “ice”.

Buttons and LED’s etc also work without an MCU as long as you tie them to a Webhook widget etc.
Not forgetting video, map, GPS etc.

What would be really cool @Dmytro is if you could tie Webhook to automatically display the response in terminal (without an MCU).

I guess it could be done with a mod to the Eventor widget. Get response and if a terminal widget is available, Eventor let’s you select it for output.

A bit of development could open up the app to 99% of the world’s population that doesn’t know how to code.

Yes. I was thinking about that too. And there is nothing hard to do.
