PanelLight

Simple Micropython script to control a series of rgb LEDs via html page. Tested to work on ESP32 MCU with Micropython.

Dependencies

• wifi manager from here: https://github.com/tayfunulu/WiFiManager makes connecting the MC to WiFi really easy

• Uses uasyncio to listen for web connections

• Uses picoweb to set up the web server and handle requests: https://github.com/pfalcon/picoweb. Connect your device to the network and use upip.install('picoweb') for easiest install, or use the provided library. picoweb also depends on micropython-ulogging module for optional REPL logging and utemplate, if you want to use that to format your html. Refer to picoweb doumentation.

• Uses trickLED library for fastLED-eque micropython LED driving: https://gitlab.com/scottrbailey/trickLED

Usage

After setting up your microcontroller, picoweb will create a server on the wifimgr provided network and serve a config page. Use any device connected to the same network to send requests to the server. It will schedule a task to run the selected animation.

Animations are provided in animations.py (and animations32.py) and can be customized to taste. They are initialized and retrieved in effects.py and then scheduled to run indefinately, until a new reqest is recieved. See trickLED library for effect customization.
