Console example

This example illustrates usage of console component to create an interactive shell.

Configuring UART and VFS

initialize_console function configures some aspects of UART and VFS relevant to the operation of console:

  • By default stdin and stdout are buffered streams. This means that the text written to stdout will not be immediately sent to UART. This is not the desirable behavior for the console, so buffering for stdin and stdout is disabled using setvbuf function.

  • Line endings are configured to match those expected/generated by common serial monitor programs, such as screen, minicom, and the idf_monitor.py included in the SDK. The default behavior for these commands is:

    • When 'enter' key is pressed on the keyboard, CR (0x13) code is sent to the serial device.
    • To move the cursor to the beginning of the next line, serial device needs to send CR LF (0x13 0x10) sequence.
  • UART driver is initialized, and VFS is configured to use UART driver's interrupt-driver read and write functions.

Line editing

The main source file of the example illustrates how to use linenoise library, including line completion, hints, and history.

Commands

Several commands are registered using esp_console_cmd_register function. See register_wifi and register_system functions in cmd_wifi.c and cmd_system.c files.

Command handling

Main loop inside app_main function illustrates how to use linenoise and esp_console_run to implement read/eval loop.

Argument parsing

Several commands implemented in cmd_wifi.c and cmd_system.c use Argtable3 library to parse and check the arguments.

Command history

Each time a new command line is obtained from linenoise, it is written into history and the history is saved into a file in flash memory. On reset, history is initialized from that file.

Example output

Here is an sample session with the console example. GPIO15 is connected to GND to remove boot log output.

  Enter deep sleep mode. Two wakeup modes are supported: timer and GPIO. If no
  wakeup option is specified, will sleep indefinitely.
