# enduser setup Module
|
|
This module provides a simple way of configuring ESP8266 chips without using a serial interface or pre-programming WiFi credentials onto the chip.
|
|
|
|
![enduser setup config dialog](../../img/enduser-setup.jpg "enduser setup config dialog")
|
|
|
|
After running [`enduser_setup.start()`](#enduser_setupstart) a portal like the above can be accessed through a wireless network called SetupGadget_XXXXXX. The portal is used to submit the credentials for the WiFi of the enduser.
|
|
After an IP address has been successfully obtained this module will stop as if [`enduser_setup.stop()`](#enduser_setupstop) had been called.
|
|
|
|
## enduser_setup.manual()
|
|
|
|
Controls whether manual AP configuration is used.
|
|
|
|
By default the `enduser_setup` module automatically configures an open access point when starting, and stops it when the device has been successfully joined to a WiFi network. If manual mode has been enabled, neither of this is done. The device must be manually configured for `wifi.SOFTAP` mode prior to calling `enduser_setup.start()`. Additionally, the portal is not stopped after the device has successfully joined to a WiFi network.
|
|
|
|
Most importantly, *the `onConfigured()` callback is not supported in manual mode*. This limitation may disappear in the future.
|
|
|
|
#### Syntax
|
|
`enduser_setup.manual([on_off])`
|
|
|
|
#### Parameters
|
|
- `on_off` a boolean value indicating whether to use manual mode; if not given, the function only returns the current setting.
|
|
|
|
#### Returns
|
|
The current setting, true if manual mode is enabled, false if it is not.
|
|
|
|
## enduser_setup.start()
|
|
|
|
Starts the captive portal.
|
|
|
|
#### Syntax
|
|
`enduser_setup.start([onConfigured()], [onError(err_num, string)], [onDebug(string)])`
|
|
|
|
#### Parameters
|
|
- `onConfigured()` callback will be fired when an IP-address has been obtained, just before the enduser_setup module will terminate itself
|
|
- `onError()` callback will be fired if an error is encountered. `err_num` is a number describing the error, and `string` contains a description of the error.
|
|
- `onDebug()` callback is disabled by default. It is intended to be used to find internal issues in the module. `string` contains a description of what is going on.
|
|
|
|
#### Returns
|
|
`nil`
|
|
|
|
#### Example
|
|
```lua
|
|
enduser_setup.start(
|
|
function()
|
|
print("Connected to wifi as:" .. wifi.sta.getip())
|
|
end,
|
|
function(err, str)
|
|
print("enduser_setup: Err #" .. err .. ": " .. str)
|
|
end
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## enduser_setup.stop()
|
|
|
|
Stops the captive portal.
|
|
|
|
#### Syntax
|
|
`enduser_setup.stop()`
|
|
|
|
#### Parameters
|
|
none
|
|
|
|
#### Returns
|
