# Espressif IoT Development Framework
[![alt text](https://readthedocs.org/projects/docs/badge/?version=latest "Documentation Status")](https://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest)
ESP-IDF is the official development framework for the [ESP32](https://espressif.com/en/products/hardware/esp32/overview) chip.
# Developing With the ESP-IDF
## Setting Up ESP-IDF
See setup guides for detailed instructions to set up the ESP-IDF:
* [Windows Setup Guide](https://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/get-started/windows-setup.html)
* [Mac OS Setup Guide](https://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/get-started/macos-setup.html)
* [Linux Setup Guide](https://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/get-started/linux-setup.html)
## Finding a Project
As well as the [esp-idf-template](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf-template) project mentioned in the setup guide, ESP-IDF comes with some example projects in the [examples](examples) directory.
Once you've found the project you want to work with, change to its directory and you can configure and build it.
## Configuring the Project
`make menuconfig`
* Opens a text-based configuration menu for the project.
* Use up & down arrow keys to navigate the menu.
* Use Enter key to go into a submenu, Escape key to go out or to exit.
* Type `?` to see a help screen. Enter key exits the help screen.
* Use Space key, or `Y` and `N` keys to enable (Yes) and disable (No) configuration items with checkboxes "`[*]`"
* Pressing `?` while highlighting a configuration item displays help about that item.
* Type `/` to search the configuration items.
Once done configuring, press Escape multiple times to exit and say "Yes" to save the new configuration when prompted.
## Compiling the Project
`make all`
... will compile app, bootloader and generate a partition table based on the config.
## Flashing the Project
When `make all` finishes, it will print a command line to use esptool.py to flash the chip. However you can also do this from make by running:
`make flash`
This will flash the entire project (app, bootloader and partition table) to a new chip. The settings for serial port flashing can be configured with `make menuconfig`.
You don't need to run `make all` before running `make flash`, `make flash` will automatically rebuild anything which needs it.
## Viewing Serial Output
The `make monitor` target uses the [idf_monitor tool](https://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/get-started/idf-monitor.html) to display serial output from the ESP32. idf_monitor also has a range of features to decode crash output and interact with the device. [Check the documentation page for details](https://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/get-started/idf-monitor.html).
Exit the monitor by typing Ctrl-].
To flash and monitor output in one pass, you can run:
`make flash monitor`
## Compiling & Flashing Just the App
After the initial flash, you may just want to build and flash just your app, not the bootloader and partition table:
* `make app` - build just the app.
* `make app-flash` - flash just the app.
`make app-flash` will automatically rebuild the app if it needs it.
(In normal development there's no downside to reflashing the bootloader and partition table each time, if they haven't changed.)
## Parallel Builds
ESP-IDF supports compiling multiple files in parallel, so all of the above commands can be run as `make -jN` where `N` is the number of parallel make processes to run (generally N should be equal to or one more than the number of CPU cores in your system.)
Multiple make functions can be combined into one. For example: to build the app & bootloader using 5 jobs in parallel, then flash everything, and then display serial output from the ESP32 run:
```
make -j5 flash monitor
```
## The Partition Table
Once you've compiled your project, the "build" directory will contain a binary file with a name like "my_app.bin". This is an ESP32 image binary that can be loaded by the bootloader.
A single ESP32's flash can contain multiple apps, as well as many different kinds of data (calibration data, filesystems, parameter storage, etc). For this reason a partition table is flashed to offset 0x8000 in the flash.
Each entry in the partition table has a name (label), type (app, data, or something else), subtype and the offset in flash where the partition is loaded.
The simplest way to use the partition table is to `make menuconfig` and choose one of the simple predefined partition tables:
* "Single factory app, no OTA"
* "Factory app, two OTA definitions"
In both cases the factory app is flashed at offset 0x10000. If you `make partition_table` then it will print a summary of the partition table.
For more details about partition tables and how to create custom variations, view the [`docs/api-guides/partition-tables.rst`](docs/api-guides/partition-tables.rst) file.
## Erasing Flash
The `make flash` target does not erase the entire flash contents. However it is sometimes useful to set the device back to a totally erased state, particularly when making partition table changes or OTA app updates. To erase the entire flash, run `make erase_flash`.
This can be combined with other targets, ie `make erase_flash flash` will erase everything and then re-flash the new app, bootloader and partition table.
