This updates the minimal supported version of CMake to 3.16, which in turn enables us to use more CMake features and have a cleaner build system. This is the version that provides most new features and also the one we use in our latest docker image for CI.
Mesh Internal Communication Example
This example demonstrates how to use the mesh APIs to set up a mesh network, send and receive messages over the mesh network and etc.
Features Demonstrated
-
mesh initialization
-
mesh configuration
-
mesh start
-
mesh event handler
-
root send and receive
-
other nodes receive
Open project configuration menu (idf.py menuconfig) to configure the mesh network channel, router SSID, router password and mesh softAP settings.
When the mesh network is established and if you happen to run this example on ESP-WROVER-KIT boards, the RGB light indicator will show you on which layer devices are. The pink reprents root; the yellow reprents layer 2; the red reprents layer 3; the blue reprents layer 4; the green reprents layer 5; the white reprents layer greater than 5. Root continuously sends an On / Off control message to all devices in its routing table. Devices including root itself receive this message and do the On / Off.
