Boards Manager
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
This is the suggested installation method for end users.
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- Arduino 1.6.8, get it from `Arduino
|
|
website <https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/OldSoftwareReleases#previous>`__.
|
|
- Internet connection
|
|
- Python 3 interpreter (Mac/Linux only, Windows installation supplies its own)
|
|
|
|
Instructions
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- Start Arduino and open Preferences window.
|
|
- Enter
|
|
``https://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json``
|
|
into *Additional Board Manager URLs* field. You can add multiple
|
|
URLs, separating them with commas.
|
|
- Open Boards Manager from Tools > Board menu and find *esp8266*
|
|
platform.
|
|
- Select the version you need from a drop-down box.
|
|
- Click *install* button.
|
|
- Don't forget to select your ESP8266 board from Tools > Board menu
|
|
after installation.
|
|

Using git version
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
This is the suggested installation method for contributors and library
|
|
developers.
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- Arduino 1.6.8 (or newer, current working version is 1.8.5)
|
|
- git
|
|
- Python 3.x (https://python.org)
|
|
- terminal, console, or command prompt (depending on your OS)
|
|
- Internet connection
|
|
- Uninstalling any core version installed via Board Manager
|
|
|
|
Instructions - Windows 10
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
- First, make sure you don't already have an ESP8266 core version installed
|
|
using the Board Manager (see above). If you do, uninstall it from the
|
|
Board Manager before proceeding.
|
|
|
|
- Install git for Windows (if not already; see https://git-scm.com/download/win)
|
|
|
|
- Open a command prompt (cmd) and go to Arduino default directory. This is typically the
|
|
*sketchbook* directory (usually ``C:\users\{username}\Documents\Arduino`` where the environment variable ``%USERPROFILE%`` usually contains ``C:\users\{username}``)
|
|
|
|
- Clone this repository into hardware/esp8266com/esp8266 directory.
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Arduino\
|
|
if not exist hardware mkdir hardware
|
|
cd hardware
|
|
if not exist esp8266com mkdir esp8266com
|
|
cd esp8266com
|
|
git clone https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino.git esp8266
|
|
|
|
You should end up with the following directory structure in
|
|
|
|
``C:\Users\{your username}\Documents\``
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|

- Initialize the submodules
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Arduino\hardware\esp8266com\esp8266
|
|
git submodule update --init
|
|
|
|
If error messages about missing files related to ``SoftwareSerial`` are encountered during the build process, it should be because this step was missed and is required.
|
|
|
|
- Download binary tools
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd esp8266/tools
|
|
python3 get.py
|
|
|
|
- Restart Arduino
|
|
|
|
- If using the Arduino IDE for Visual Studio (https://www.visualmicro.com/), be sure to click Tools - Visual Micro - Rescan Toolchains and Libraries
|
|
|
|
- When later updating your local library, goto the esp8266 directory and do a git pull
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Arduino\hardware\esp8266com\esp8266
|
|
git status
|
|
git pull
|
|
|
|
Note that you could, in theory install in ``C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware`` however this has security implications, not to mention the directory often gets blown away when re-installing Arduino IDE. It does have the benefit (or drawback, depending on your perspective) - of being available to all users on your PC that use Arduino.

Instructions - Other OS
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- First, make sure you don't already have an ESP8266 core version installed
|
|
using the Board Manager (see above). If you do, uninstall it from the
|
|
Board Manager before proceeding.
|
|
|
|
- Open the console and go to Arduino directory. This can be either your
|
|
*sketchbook* directory (usually ``<Documents>/Arduino``), or the
|
|
directory of Arduino application itself, the choice is up to you.
|
|
|
|
- Clone this repository into hardware/esp8266com/esp8266 directory.
|
|
Alternatively, clone it elsewhere and create a symlink, if your OS
|
|
supports them.
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd hardware
|
|
mkdir esp8266com
|
|
cd esp8266com
|
|
git clone https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino.git esp8266
|
|
|
|
You should end up with the following directory structure:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
Arduino
|
|
|
|
|
--- hardware
|
|

|
|
|
- Initialize the submodules
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd esp8266
|
|
git submodule update --init
|
|
|
|
If error messages about missing files related to ``SoftwareSerial`` are encountered during the build process, it should be because this step was missed and is required.
|
|
|
|
- Download binary tools
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd esp8266/tools
|
|
python3 get.py
|
|
|
|
If you get an error message stating that python3 is not found, you will need to install it (most modern UNIX-like OSes provide Python 3 as
|
|
part of the default install). To install you will need to use ``sudo yum install python3``, ``sudo apt install python3``, or ``brew install python3``
|
|
as appropriate. On the Mac you may get an error message like:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
python3 get.py
|
|
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin

Traceback (most recent call last):
|
|
File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/urllib/request.py", line 1317, in do_open

|
ssl.SSLCertVerificationError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1056)
|
|
|
|
This is because Homebrew on the Mac does not always install the required SSL certificates by default. Install them manually (adjust the Python 3.7 as needed) with:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd "/Applications/Python 3.7/" && sudo "./Install Certificates.command"
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Restart Arduino
|
|
|
|
- When later updating your local library, goto the esp8266 directory and do a git pull
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
cd hardware\esp8266com\esp8266
|
|
git status
|
|
git pull
