# Console Example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This example illustrates the usage of the [Console Component](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/system/console.html#console) to create an interactive shell on the ESP32. The interactive shell running on the ESP32 can then be controlled/interacted with over a serial port (UART).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The interactive shell implemented in this example contains a wide variety of commands, and can act as a basis for applications that require a command-line interface (CLI).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## How to use example
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Hardware Required
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This example should be able to run on any commonly available ESP32 development board.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Configure the project
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
idf.py menuconfig
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Enable/disable `Example Configuration > Store command history in flash` as necessary
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Build and Flash
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
(Replace PORT with the name of the serial port to use.)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Example Output
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Enter the `help` command get a full list of all available commands. The following is a sample session of the Console Example where a variety of commands provided by the Console Example are used. Note that GPIO15 is connected to GND to remove the boot log output.

## Troubleshooting
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Line Endings
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The line endings in the Console Example are configured to match particular serial monitors. Therefore, if the following log output appears, consider using a different serial monitor (e.g. Putty for Windows) or modify the example's [UART configuration](#Configuring-UART-and-VFS).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
This is an example of ESP-IDF console component.
 | 
						|
Type 'help' to get the list of commands.
 | 
						|
Use UP/DOWN arrows to navigate through command history.
 | 
						|
Press TAB when typing command name to auto-complete.
 | 
						|
Your terminal application does not support escape sequences.
 | 
						|
Line editing and history features are disabled.
 | 
						|
On Windows, try using Putty instead.

## Example Breakdown
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Configuring UART
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The ``initialize_console()`` function in the example configures some aspects of UART relevant to the operation of the console.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- **Line Endings**: The default line endings are configured to match those expected/generated by common serial monitor programs, such as `screen`, `minicom`, and the `esp-idf-monitor` included in the SDK. The default behavior for these commands are:
 | 
						|
    - When 'enter' key is pressed on the keyboard, `CR` (0x13) code is sent to the serial device.
 | 
						|
    - To move the cursor to the beginning of the next line, serial device needs to send `CR LF` (0x13 0x10) sequence.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Line editing
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The main source file of the example illustrates how to use `linenoise` library, including line completion, hints, and history.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Commands
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Several commands are registered using `esp_console_cmd_register()` function. See the `register_wifi()` and `register_system()` functions in `cmd_wifi.c` and `cmd_system.c` files.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Command handling
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Main loop inside `app_main()` function illustrates how to use `linenoise` and `esp_console_run()` to implement read/eval loop.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Argument parsing
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Several commands implemented in `cmd_wifi.c` and `cmd_system.c` use the Argtable3 library to parse and check the arguments.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Command history
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Each time a new command line is obtained from `linenoise`, it is written into history and the history is saved into a file in flash memory. On reset, history is initialized from that file.
