Spore WiFi LED module. Firmware and Hardware.

spore's Issues

"cannot find module: ws" on fresh install

maybe just need to reinstall from npm with --save?

I maybe just installed -g or something?

battery voltage math might be wrong

SPOREs are power down at a reported remaining capacity of between 20%-25%. Obviously this is wrong! Check the math on both the firwmare and the config app.

wss.clients.size reporting 1 extra client?

in cases with a poor connection, wss.clients.size is too big - i.e. a single device connected and wss.clients.size (can be seen in status console) is 2

do not report "## devices connected" in heartbeat()

call a function on interval that checks if wss.clients.size has changes and report.

Currently this happens in heartbeat - this can NEVER reach zero because if zero devices are connected then you will never get a pong and heartbeat won't be called!

SPORES crash on auto reset when rx change serverIP

exception(28): LoadProhibited: A load referenced a page mapped with an attribute that does not permit loads
happens with a slightly different stack trace each time.

if (_serverChanged) {
    EEPROM.commit();
    webSocket.begin(serverIP.toString(), wsPort, "/");
    Serial.printf("[osc] New Websocket server at: %s:%u\n", serverIP.toString().c_str(), wsPort);
    //delay(10);
    ESP.restart();
  }

in serverControl.h

change webfonts to local

already done just need to merge from 'develop' to 'dev' branch.

"force refresh" not working (config monitor)

used to work, now it doesn't. Have to close and open monitor window after "scan for changes" to get rid of extra, no longer existing devices

Textured window warning

Getting the following warning on macOS:

*** WARNING: Textured window <AtomNSWindow: 0x7f86f9c00730> is getting an implicitly transparent titlebar. This will break when linking against newer SDKs. Use NSWindow's -titlebarAppearsTransparent=YES instead.

Occasional SPORE stuck in ws connect loop

On configapp restart, some devices will continually reconnect to the config app on every ping (not sure if hardware ping or config ping). Might be related to #3.

Not sure if this is a firmware issue or config app issue.

reload app JSON config on change

this could be reload app, reload config (tricky), or just post a notice in GUI that config has changed and restart is required.

tooltips resize on each hover

The tooltips in the UI seem to get narrower each time you hover over them.

Sometimes they have a white underlay and sometimes not.

Hardware needs more bulk capacitance? (if not battery operated)

When using without the battery (and just USB), getting weird crashes and inconsistent exceptions. Probably only when using with LEDs - might be related to state of JP3?

"force refresh" on scan

Would be nice to have this automatic as we have to call it every time. Can probably delete the button if we do this??

spore not recognizing ws disconnect

if server/config is closed, spore modules don't recognize disconnect (consequence of shifting to async websockets??)

This is important to be able to kick out of test mode on a lost connection.

Note: both sides are sending pings every 5 seconds so it should be recognized in 5s or fewer.
