RGB LED controlled via ESP8266-based Web Server

• web server based on ESP8266
• using static private IP address
  • useful for port forwarding from WLAN router
  • public web server when using dynDNS
• home page /index.html intentionally without function
• interaction via /help.html
• additional feature: logging request resulting in 404 error, see /logg

hardware:

• wemos d1 mini with rgb led shield
  • https://wiki.wemos.cc/products:d1:d1_mini
  • https://wiki.wemos.cc/products:d1_mini_shields:rgb_led_shield

software:

• Arduino IDE
  • additional data upload for static web server files, see https://github.com/esp8266/arduino-esp8266fs-plugin

setup:

• clone repository
• set up the Arduino IDE
• edit weak-web222-led.ino
  • set wifi credentials in line 101
    • hint: guest network might not work with port forwarding
  • set your static ip for local network in line 253
    • hint: needs to be outside DHCP range
• use / configure (external) dynDNS service

weak-web222-led's Issues

change local DNS name of device

• currently devices shows up with default "EPS-xxxxx" name

status 404 page?

new (static) html page for 404 status?

reduce private / specific information in code, make configuration easier?

• server name included in file 'index.html' and source code
• WLAN / IP address configuration hidden inside source code
