* DHT11 read sometimes failed with checksum error. The code assumed DHT11 devices only ever return zero in the temperature and humidity decimal fraction bytes. The datasheet doesn't guarantee this is the case, and by observation I have noticed that indeed the DHT11 may sometimes return another number, usually close to zero. This means that the code would fail with a checksum error, as the fraction bytes were not included when the checksum was calculated. These bytes are now taken into account and also returned as part of the measurement. This also means that the related dht.read() function is non-functional. If you have a DHT11 device that returns a non-zero decimal part, dht.read() will interpret it as a DHT22 result and return the wrong measurement. For this reason dht.read() should be retired. This patch does not address this issue. |

NodeMCU 2.2.1
A Lua based firmware for ESP8266 WiFi SOC
NodeMCU is an open source Lua based firmware for the ESP8266 WiFi SOC from Espressif and uses an on-module flash-based SPIFFS file system. NodeMCU is implemented in C and is layered on the Espressif NON-OS SDK.
The firmware was initially developed as is a companion project to the popular ESP8266-based NodeMCU development modules, but the project is now community-supported, and the firmware can now be run on any ESP module.
Summary
- Easy to program wireless node and/or access point
- Based on Lua 5.1.4 (without
debug&osmodules) - Asynchronous event-driven programming model
- more than 65 built-in modules
- Firmware available with or without floating point support (integer-only uses less memory)
- Up-to-date documentation at https://nodemcu.readthedocs.io
LFS support
In July 2018 support for a Lua Flash Store (LFS) was introduced. LFS allows Lua code and its associated constant data to be executed directly out of flash-memory; just as the firmware itself is executed. This now enables NodeMCU developers to create Lua applications with up to 256Kb Lua code and read-only constants executing out of flash. All of the RAM is available for read-write data!
Programming Model
The NodeMCU programming model is similar to that of Node.js, only in Lua. It is asynchronous and event-driven. Many functions, therefore, have parameters for callback functions. To give you an idea what a NodeMCU program looks like study the short snippets below. For more extensive examples have a look at the /lua_examples folder in the repository on GitHub.
-- a simple HTTP server
srv = net.createServer(net.TCP)
srv:listen(80, function(conn)
conn:on("receive", function(sck, payload)
print(payload)
sck:send("HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\nContent-Type: text/html\r\n\r\n<h1> Hello, NodeMCU.</h1>")
end)
conn:on("sent", function(sck) sck:close() end)
end)
-- connect to WiFi access point
wifi.setmode(wifi.STATION)
wifi.sta.config{ssid="SSID", pwd="password"}
Documentation
The entire NodeMCU documentation is maintained right in this repository at /docs. The fact that the API documentation is maintained in the same repository as the code that provides the API ensures consistency between the two. With every commit the documentation is rebuilt by Read the Docs and thus transformed from terse Markdown into a nicely browsable HTML site at https://nodemcu.readthedocs.io.

- How to flash the firmware
- How to upload code and NodeMCU IDEs
- API documentation for every module
Releases
Due to the ever-growing number of modules available within NodeMCU, pre-built binaries are no longer made available. Use the automated custom firmware build service to get the specific firmware configuration you need, or consult the documentation for other options to build your own firmware.
This project uses two main branches, master and dev. dev is actively worked on and it's also where PRs should be created against. master thus can be considered "stable" even though there are no automated regression tests. The goal is to merge back to master roughly every 2 months. Depending on the current "heat" (issues, PRs) we accept changes to dev for 5-6 weeks and then hold back for 2-3 weeks before the next snap is completed.
A new tag is created every time dev is merged back to master. They are listed in the releases section here on GitHub. Tag names follow the <SDK-version>-master_yyyymmdd pattern.
