Build your own toolchain to develop, test, build and finally deploy a Golang controller to your ESP32 device.
## Purpose
The [Arduino IDE](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software) is easy to use.
But I faced problems like maintainability and testability at more complicated IoT projects.
I needed to compile and flash the ESP32 before testing my code functionality by doing it 100% manually.
This solution transpiles Golang into Arduino code, which can be compiled to an image by using the ESP32 toolchain.
Now I am able to use a fully automated testing approach instead of doing it 100% manually.
## Process
+--------+ +---------+ +----------+
| Test +----> Build +----> Deploy |
+--------+ +---------+ +----------+
make make flash
**Important**: The Transpiler only supports a small subset of the [Golang Language Specification](https://golang.org/ref/spec).
## Installation
First download and install the latest [Arduino IDE](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software) into /opt/arduino or change INO_IDE_PATH in the Makefile
and necessary packages.
- **Ubuntu**:
sudo apt-get install -y bison flex git gperf libncurses-dev make python
- **Manjaro**:
sudo pip install pyserial
Next run the ESP32 SDK-Installation:
make packages
Look at the [examples](https://github.com/andygeiss/esp32/tree/master/examples) for more information.
## Develop, Test and Build
Change the Arduino port to your current settings by changing the Makefile:
INO_PORT="/dev/ttyUSB0"
Also set the SSID and PASS strings at application/device/controller.go to your WiFi Access Point and start the build process by using:
make
Run the binary at build/device-${ARCH} to simulate your ESP32 device locally.
Connecting to WiFi ...... Connected!
## Deploy
Finally use the following command to deploy the image device.img to your real ESP32 device.
make flash
**Important**: Please ensure that the current user is in the dialout group. Or you will receive a permission denied.
This will create the following output:
