NVS Partition Generator Utility
-------------------------------
2019-06-17 02:23:52 -04:00
This utility helps generate NVS partition binary files which can be flashed separately on a dedicated partition via a flashing utility. Key-value pairs to be flashed onto the partition can be provided via a CSV file. For more details, please refer to :doc:`NVS Partition Generator Utility <nvs_partition_gen>`.
Application Example
-------------------
2019-06-17 02:23:52 -04:00
You can find two code examples in the :example:`storage` directory of ESP-IDF examples:
docs: use custom roles to generate GitHub links This change replaces direct links to GitHub master branch with auto-generated links using docutils custom roles. These auto-generated links point to the tree or blob for the git commit ID (or tag) of the repository. This is needed to ensure that links don’t become broken when files in master branch are moved around or deleted. The following roles are introduced: - :idf:`path` - points to directory inside ESP-IDF - :idf_blob:`path` - points to file inside ESP-IDF - :idf_raw:`path` - points to raw view of the file inside ESP-IDF - :component:`path` - points to directory inside ESP-IDF components dir - :component_blob:`path` - points to file inside ESP-IDF components dir - :component_raw:`path` - points to raw view of the file inside ESP-IDF components dir - :example:`path` - points to directory inside ESP-IDF examples dir - :example_blob:`path` - points to file inside ESP-IDF examples dir - :example_raw:`path` - points to raw view of the file inside ESP-IDF examples dir A check is added to the CI build script, which searches RST files for presence of hard-coded links (identified by tree/master, blob/master, or raw/master part of the URL). This check can be run manually: cd docs && make gh-linkcheck Additionally, Sphinx linkcheck build type is used to create new CI test, which check for broken links. This test has to be triggered explicitly, because including it in normal build process (when the commit is not yet deployed to Github) will not work. It can be triggered in a regular fashion using a combination of cron and Curl, similar to stress tests.

:example:`storage/nvs_rw_value`
2016-11-16 14:14:48 -05:00
2019-06-17 02:23:52 -04:00
Demonstrates how to read a single integer value from, and write it to NVS.
2016-11-16 14:14:48 -05:00
The value checked in this example holds the number of the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} module restarts. The value's function as a counter is only possible due to its storing in NVS.
2016-11-16 14:14:48 -05:00
2019-06-17 02:23:52 -04:00
The example also shows how to check if a read / write operation was successful, or if a certain value has not been initialized in NVS. The diagnostic procedure is provided in plain text to help you track the program flow and capture any issues on the way.

:example:`storage/nvs_rw_blob`
2016-11-16 14:14:48 -05:00
Demonstrates how to read a single integer value and a blob (binary large object), and write them to NVS to preserve this value between {IDF_TARGET_NAME} module restarts.
2016-11-16 14:14:48 -05:00
* value - tracks the number of the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} module soft and hard restarts.
2019-06-17 02:23:52 -04:00
* blob - contains a table with module run times. The table is read from NVS to dynamically allocated RAM. A new run time is added to the table on each manually triggered soft restart, and then the added run time is written to NVS. Triggering is done by pulling down GPIO0.

The example also shows how to implement the diagnostic procedure to check if the read / write operation was successful.
