What is Tasmota?
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
`Tasmota <https://github.com/arendst/Tasmota>`__ is a widely used
|
||||
open-source firmware for ESP8266 and EPS32 based devices. It supports a
|
||||
wide variety of devices, sensors and integrations to Home Automation and
|
||||
Cloud services. Tasmota firmware is downloaded more than 200,000 times
|
||||
each month, and has an active and growing community.
|
||||
|
||||
Tasmota provides access to hundreds of supported devices, full support
|
||||
of MQTT, HTTP(S), integration with major Home Automation systems, myriad
|
||||
of sensors, IR, RF, Zigbee, Bluetooth, AWS IoT, Azure IoT, Alexa and
|
||||
many more.
|
||||
|
||||
What is Berry?
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
`Berry <https://github.com/berry-lang/berry>`__ is a ultra-lightweight
|
||||
dynamically typed embedded scripting language. It is designed for
|
||||
lower-performance embedded devices. The interpreter of Berry include a
|
||||
one-pass compiler and register-based VM, all the code is written in ANSI
|
||||
C99. Berry offers a syntax very similar to Python, and is inspired from
|
||||
LUA VM. It is fully integrated in Tasmota
|
||||
|
||||
Highlights of Berry
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Berry has the following advantages:
|
||||
|
||||
- Lightweight: A well-optimized interpreter with very little resources. Ideal for use in microprocessors.
|
||||
- Fast: optimized one-pass bytecode compiler and register-based virtual machine.
|
||||
- Powerful: supports imperative programming, object-oriented programming, functional programming.
|
||||
- Flexible: Berry is a dynamic type script, and it's intended for embedding in applications.
|
||||
It can provide good dynamic scalability for the host system.
|
||||
- Simple: simple and natural syntax, support garbage collection, and easy to use FFI (foreign function interface).
|
||||
- RAM saving: With compile-time object construction, most of the constant objects are stored
|
||||
in read-only code data segments, so the RAM usage of the interpreter is very low when it starts.
|
||||
|
||||
All features are detailed in the `Berry Reference Manual <https://github.com/berry-lang/berry/wiki/Reference>`__

Why LVGL + Tasmota + Berry?
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
In 2021, Tasmota added full support of LVGL for ESP32 based devices. It
|
||||
also introduced the Berry scripting language, a small-footprint language
|
||||
similar to Python and fully integrated in Tasmota.
|
||||
|
||||
A comprehensive mapping of LVGL in Berry language is now available,
|
||||
similar to the mapping of MicroPython. It allows to use +98% of all LVGL
|
||||
features. It is also possible to write custom widgets in Berry.
|
||||
|
||||
Versions supported: LVGL v8.0.2, LodePNG v20201017, Freetype 2.10.4
|
||||
|
||||
Tasmota + Berry + LVGL could be used for:
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
- Fast prototyping GUI.
|
||||
- Shortening the cycle of changing and fine-tuning the GUI.
|
||||
- Modelling the GUI in a more abstract way by defining reusable composite objects, taking
|
||||
advantage of Berry's language features such as Inheritance, Closures, Exception Handling…
|
||||
- Make LVGL accessible to a larger audience. No need to know C to create a nice GUI on an embedded system.
|
||||
|
||||
A higher level interface compatible with
|
||||
`OpenHASP <https://github.com/HASwitchPlate/openHASP>`__
|
||||
is also under development.
|
||||
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
So what does it look like?
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
TL;DR: Similar to MicroPython, it's very much like the C API, but Object-Oriented for LVGL components.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's dive right into an example!
|
||||
|
||||
A simple example
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
.. code:: python
|
||||
|
||||
lv.start() # start LVGL
|
||||
scr = lv.screen_active() # get default screen
|
||||
btn = lv.btn(scr) # create button
|
||||
btn.center()
|
||||
label = lv.label(btn) # create a label in the button
|
||||
label.set_text("Button") # set a label to the button
|
||||
|
||||
How can I use it?
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
You can start in less than 10 minutes on a M5Stack or equivalent device
|
||||
in less than 10 minutes in this `short tutorial <https://tasmota.github.io/docs/LVGL_in_10_minutes/>`__

||||

||||
