DynaConfig

DynaConfig is a library for managing WiFi configuration on ESP32 devices using a captive portal. It allows users to dynamically configure WiFi credentials through a web interface, making it easy to set up and change network settings without modifying the firmware.

• Captive Portal: Sets up an access point to serve a web page for WiFi configuration.
• Persistent Storage: Stores WiFi credentials in non-volatile memory using the Preferences library.
• Automatic WiFi Connection: Connects to the stored WiFi network if credentials are available.
• Fallback Mode: Starts the captive portal if no credentials are found or if the connection fails.

Getting Started

Installation

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/nthnn/DynaConfig.git

2. Copy to Arduino Libraries Folder: Copy the DynaConfig folder to your Arduino libraries directory, typically located at ~/Documents/Arduino/libraries on Linux-based systems.

3. Include the Library: In your Arduino sketch, include the library:

   #include <DynaConfig.h>

Usage

Here’s a basic example of how to use the DynaConfig library in your sketch:

#include <dynaconfig.h>
#include <WiFi.h>

void setup() {
    // Initialize serial communication at a baud rate of 115200
    Serial.begin(115200);

    // Create an instance of the DynaConfig class with the name "dyna-config" for the captive portal
    DynaConfig dynaConfig("dyna-config");
    // Check WiFi configuration; starts the captive portal if no credentials are found
    dynaConfig.checkWiFiConfig();

    // Set the WiFi mode to station (client)
    WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
    // Attempt to connect to the WiFi network using the stored SSID and password
    WiFi.begin(
        dynaConfig.getConfigSSID(),      // Retrieve the stored SSID
        dynaConfig.getConfigPasskey()    // Retrieve the stored password
    );

    // Close the DynaConfig class object
    dynaConfig.close();

    // Indicate that the device is attempting to connect to the WiFi network
    Serial.println("Connecting");
    // Wait until the device is connected to the WiFi network
    while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
        Serial.print(".");    // Print a dot for each connection attempt
        delay(100);           // Wait for 100 milliseconds before retrying
    }

    // Once connected, print a success message to the serial monitor
    Serial.println("\nConnected to the WiFi network");

    // Print the local IP address assigned to the ESP32
    Serial.print("Local ESP32 IP: ");
    Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
}

void loop() {
    // Add a small delay to prevent excessive CPU usage in the loop
    delay(10);
}
