Features now enabled by default are:
- User id check in user-node association for better handling of reset to
factory from security perspective.
- Secure local control
Order of component dirs has been changed so that the rmaker_common from
esp-rainmker gets used, rather than the one from esp-insights
Enabling CONFIG_EXAMPLE_ENABLE_TEST_NOTIFICATIONS for the switch example will
enable the test mobile notifications on push button events. Turning the switch
on would report a parameter notification like {"Switch":{"Power":true}} and
turning off would report an alert "Switch was turned off".
Note that push notifications should be used only when users need to be specifically
alerted about some event even when the app is in background, not otherwise.
Setting correct timezone is mandatory for scheduling to work correctly.
Earlier, the default timezone was set to "Asia/Shanghai" and a config
change was required for setting appropriate timezone.
However, now that the phone apps have support for setting the timezone
using the RainMaker timezone service, it has been enabled in all
examples that had scheduling enabled.
Button event callbacks are executed in the context of FreeRTOS Timer task.
Reporting param updates from that causes stack overflow, specifically on ESP32-C3.
As a temporary workaround, the stack size for FreeRTOS Timer task has been increased.
The following are now part of a separate repo (and included as git submodule):
- MQTT glue layer
- Work Queue
- Utilities (reset, reboot, time sync, timezone, etc.)
- Factory Storage
Even CLI is now a part of a seperate repo, included here as a git submodule.
Default parameter names like name, power, etc. have been changed to Name, Power, etc.
respectively, so that they look better in the phone app UIs.
Note that, with this change, any user configured device name (the name set from phone apps),
or any other persistent parameter for which a default name was used (Eg. power)
will be affected, as the values will no more be found in the NVS storage. Please edit your
application code accordingly if you want to stick with the old names.
Please check CHANGES.md for guidelines.
The common code for WS2812 RGB LED has been moved to a component ws2812_led.
The WS2812 LED is available only on ESP32-S2-Saola-1 boards and hence
it will be enabled only if IDF target is set to ESP32S2. It can
be disabled by disabling the CONFIG_WS2812_LED_ENABLE config option.
led_strip component files have also been moved to ws2812_led
MAC address is a public information and can also be sniffed easily. Creating the proof of
possession pin from that is not secure enough. Instead, a random stream of bytes is now generated
and stored in the fctry partition during claiming and that is used for the PoP.
- APIs and data structures changed to a more object oriented approach.
- Some internal files split into multiple files to separate out functionality
of node, device and parameter.
- A new doc file CHANGES.md added to help understand the changes.
- Modified all the examples as per these changes in the RainMaker APIs.
switch: Used the default OTA Server certificate to demonstrate simplest usage.
led_light: Added OTA calls that demonstrate using own server certificate.
