Of course this is not a real web server although with an SD card whole HTML pages could be served. The purpose of this library is to extract queries from a URL requested by a client. This way for example you could change color and brightness of an RGB led using a color wheel in a phone app or control home appliances from anywhere in the world.
ESP8266 library functions in server mode
ESP_StartServer(const char *port)Function
Start the ESP8266 server at the specified portArguments
port: string of characters that denotes the port number used by web clients to connect to the ESP. The port must be forwarded in router. I believe by default ESP8266 uses the 333 port but port 80 is betterReturns
true if successful or false if not
Function
Deletes the serverArguments
voidReturns
true if successful or false if not
ESP_ClientConnected(void)
Function
Check if a client is connected to the server and return true or falseArguments
noneReturns
true if successful or false if not
ESP_GetQueryData(query_names[], query_values_return[NR_OF_URL_QUERIES][URL_QUERY_VALUE_LENGTH])
Function
Takes a list of URL query names and extract their values in the provided arrayArguments
query_names: (char *) a pointer to an array with query names. See the example bellow
query_values_return: (char) a 2D array in which the query values corresponding to provided query names will be storredReturns
true if URL queries were found or false if not. Web browsers will ask for a favicon and if this returns false a 404 response can be sent
ESP_ServerReply(html_data[], HTTP_Headers)
Function
Send an HTTP response to the client together with some HTML contentArguments
html_data: (char) HTML content. It can also be a null character
HTTP_Headers: (char *) the HTTP response. The following macros are available HTTP_200_OK or HTTP_404_NOT_FOUNDReturns
true if successful or false if not
In the main c file first add the following defines. It is important to read the description of each define and set them properly.
main.c
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Defines //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- #define F_CPU 24500000 // CPU FREQUENCY IN Hz #define BAUD_RATE 115200 /* Server mode */ // How many queries to search in URL. ex: http://192.168.100.5:333?var1=10&var2=4 // In this example there are 2 queries names - var1 and var2 #define NR_OF_URL_QUERIES 3 // rows // How many characters will query value have (after =) // For example if var2 will have only 1 character but var2 2 characters, then the greatest length is taken // In this case 3 plus 1 for null character so we have 4 #define URL_QUERY_VALUE_LENGTH 4 // columns (add 1 for null terminator) // How many characters has the longest query name. var1 has 4 characters #define URL_QUERY_NAME_LENGTH 1
Now some includes
#include <SI_EFM8BB1_Register_Enums.h> // SFR declarations #include "globals.h" #include "delay.h" #include "ESP8266.h" #include "uart.h"
Links for these files can be found in the main article here ESP8266 library for EFM8 microcontrollers.
Example on how to use the ESP8266 library in server mode, setup the EFM8BB1 microcontroller
This example describes how to control the brightness and color of an RGB led over the internet by extracting the query values and printing them on the terminal. The Termite terminal can be used for testing purposes.main.c
