implement a function which allows to reset the SML decoder. this new
function is used after a datagram ends. for the SML HTTP power meter
this is simple: after all bytes from the request's answer have been
decoded, we reset the decoder. for the SML serial power meter, we
perform the reset after a datagram ended based on timing (no new bytes
have been received for a specific amount of time).
cache the values decoded in the SML datagram and only copy them to the
local stash of values if the checksum of the SML datagram matched. also
makes sure that values from incomplete SML datagrams are not used.
moreover, we now only publish values to the MQTT broker that we actually
decoded (successfully) from an SML datagram (we previously published 0.0
as values to topics we never decoded a value for).
* when printing a message, tell the name of the derived class.
* print total power only when state SML_FINAL reached.
* tell if a checksum verification error occurred.
a 9600 baud serial interface does not need a hardware UART. these
changes switch the SDM power meter implementation to use a software
serial instance instead. this is desirable as hardware UARTs are scarce
and users need them for JK BMS and VE.Direct interfaces.
the destructor will block for way too long if we keep holding the
polling mutex while performing a transcation with the SDM power meter.
when reading, we now release the lock. afterwards, i.e., in between
transactions, we check the stop flag so the task terminates in a timely
manner once asked to do so.
the MQTT power meter can now process the messages published at the
respective topics as JSON and extract a power value using a JSON path
(same as in HTTP+JSON power meter). additionally, selecting a unit for
the power value as well as an option to invert the value's sign was
added as well, similar to the HTTPS+JSON power meter.
instead of reading the main config's powermeter struct(s), the
individual power meters now are instanciated using a copy of their
respective config. this allows to instanciate different power meters
with different configs. as a first step, this simplifies instanciating
power meters for test purposes.
all power meter providers now have their own configuration struct
defined. a respective method to serialize and deserialize the provider
config is implemented for each provider.
this new class uses the newly introduced HttpRequestConfig and performs
HTTP requests using this config. it will be reused for other power
meters (SML over HTTP(S)) and may be reused by other features in the
future (battery provider, solar power provider, etc.).
the extractUrlComponents method did extract username and password
from the URL and encoded it for basic authentication. however, the
respective result string was never used. we only perform basic
authentication if the auth type is "basic" and if username and
password were supplied through the respective inputs.
the parameters to peform an HTTP request by the HTTP(S)+JSON power meter
have been generalized by introducing a new config struct. this is now
used for all values which the HTTP(S)+JSON power meter can retrieve, and
also used by the HTTP+SML power meter implementation. we anticipate that
other feature will use this config as well.
generalizing also allows to share serialization and deserialization
methods in the configuration handler and the web API handler, leading to
de-duplication of code and reduced flash memory usage.
a new web UI component is implemented to manage a set of HTTP request
settings.
avoid additional conversions and avoid double for the fact that
calculations on type double are implemented in software, whereas
float is handled in hardware on ESP32.
this new class handles SML data. it uses the SML lib to decode values
and manages those. this de-duplicates code as the class is applicable
to all power meters that collect SML data.
this setting was not used. the baud rate for the SDM is set to 9600 in
the source code. until the baud rate being customizable is actually
required by somebody, we remove the setting altogether.
"powertotal" is always published and it is published by the base class
directly. other values are still published by the derived classes, but
use a base class method, which takes care that a common base topic is
used in particular.
instead of iterating a map with subscriptions, we now bind the target
variable to the callback, which is executed once a message is arrived.
this way, the target variable is already linked to the respective topic
when the callback is executed.
lock the mutex when writing the variable, as the MQTT callback is
executed in a different context (MQTT task) than the main loop task,
which otherwise accesses the variables.
it is important to separate the capabilities of each power meter
provider into their own class/source file, as the providers work
fundamentally different and their implementations must not be
intermangled, which made maintenance and improvements a nightmare
in the past.
this only changes line endings. inspect this commit with command `git
show <commit-sha> --ignore-space-at-eol` and it will tell you that the
commit appears to be "empty" (since all changes are whitespace changes
near the end of a line, which are ignored in that git show command).
the files to be changed were found and updated using this command:
find lib src include webapp/src -type f | \
xargs grep --binary-files=without-match --files-with-matches \
$(printf '\r\n') | xargs dos2unix
the following files were restored afterwards, as they are using CRLF
line endings in the upstream as well:
- lib/CMT2300a/cmt2300a_defs.h
- lib/README
- include/README
broke in be41e6b9. was unusable as the complete type of DummySerial has
to be available in the JK BMS controller header when defining the
unique_ptr managing the dummy instance. this problem is solved by moving
the whole dummy class into its own header.
instead of hard-coding the use of hardware UART 2, the SDM power meter
instance now asks for a free hardware serial port to use and
instanciates the respective HardwareSerial object using said port.
get rid of particular compile-time designations by UART index. just hand
out the next free index of hardware UARTs, or indicate that none is
available any more.
use names as keys to register and free UARTs.
only on ESP32-S3-USB. this fiddles with the available hardware UARTs to
make it possible to use a third Victron MPPT. if three MPPTs are defined
int the pin mapping, you will not be able to use the SmartShunt and JK
BMS battery interfaces.
note that using a second MPPT will also conflict with the SDM power
meter, and that conflict is not detected, yet.
we used this library solely to interpret the answer of an HTTP web
server as JSON and find a particular value using a path expression in
the HTTP power meter implementation.
since we ran out of flash memory on non-S3 ESP32, we need to cut some
corners. removing FirebaseJson is the last low-hanging fruit that we
currently know of. we can get rid of it by using ArduinoJson (which is
already integral part of the firmware) and implementing a custom logic
to extract a value based on a path expression.
other than the FirebaseJson path "finder", the new implementation
only knows how to access sub-keys delimited by a forward slash. in
particular, accessing array members is not supported any more. I am
hoping that this is simply not an issue. if so, we will have users
complaining and we can add this functionality in a later release.
merge upstream tag v24.4.12, resolve conflicts (helgeerbe), fix eslint errors (schlimmchen) and adopt new web api method to save code duplication (schlimmchen).
