Splitting up the code into classes
Hi, I've been working on creating a PlatformIO version of the ESP firmware, would you be interested in including that in your repo?
This is all developed in PlatformIO and the project should be directly portable with no code changes, just drag the .ino into ./src, pull in your libraries, and it will build.
Thanks for quick response. I had some problems with function declarations but that might be an error on my part renaming it to .cpp
In any case, what I had in mind (and failed to properly explain) is splitting the code in classes as it might simplify it a bit and make the main file more readable. I will probably do it in my fork anyway, and see how it turns out :)
Sounds good. I'm keeping the codebase Arduino IDE-native because I feel like that's the lowest-friction option for new users, but personally I can't stand working in that environment :D
Splitting up the code into classes is something that I should have done from the get-go, and we are now where we are due to years of accumulated features and me being a lousy programmer. If you want to take a swing at this, please do!
Hello.
I have forked your project to add some features I want (mostly more pages despite Nextion's limitations) and along the way I am going to try to break the .ino apart into C++ classes and use PlatformIO too because I like the environment better.
Since it is not fair to keep changes to myself, I have tried to make my code less ugly than usual and started uploading it to GitHub.
So far I have a separate class for all the Nextion accesses, and a separate class for all the debugPrintln. I still want to separate MQTT, Webserver and Telnet into more classes.
Since I am walking into your project and tearing it all to pieces on my fork, I thought at the least I should say Hello. You are welcome to have a look at my fork and let me know how you feel. If I have "the right end of the stick", if there are small things I can do differently that would make the class-separating-work more useful to you; if there is anything I can usefully do to make the HASP project better.
Thanks!,
