1. Esptouch Demo version is v0.2.1

   ( The indepedent Esptouch Demo, please refer to

   https://github.com/EspressifApp/EsptouchForAndroid )

2. How to use python and log4j to turn on/off log

   2.1 cd PROJECT_DIR/python

   PROJECT_DIR means the directory of the project where contains '.project'

   2.2 python xml_file_search.py

   ( generate log4j.xml )

   2.3 vi log4j.xml and modify it as you like

   ( Our log4j support "OFF FATAL ERROR WARN INFO DEBUG TRACE ALL"
   
   Besides, we support "IGNORE" which means its level is depended upon
   
   its parent's level. ) 

   2.4 python xml_parse.py

   ( it will change InitLogger.java according to log4j.xml automatically )

3. DB

   We use greendao as our ORM database

   ( More info about greendao, please refer to

   https://github.com/greenrobot/greenDAO and http://greendao-orm.com/ )

4. The framework of the source code

   The layer of our source code are seperated as:
   
   UI, INTERFACE, TYPE, MODEL, ACTION, COMMAND, BASE, OPEN, DB, DB-gen, UTIL, LOG, ESPTOUCH

   4.1 UI:

   UI layer is just the UI, it shouldn't contain complex business logical.

   4.2 INTERFACE:

   INTERFACE layer contains the interfaces, it defines the interface to be implemented.

   4.3 TYPE:

   TYPE layer contains the property type, including device's type, device's state,
   
   device's status, device's timer and etc.

   4.4 MODEL:

   MODEL layer contains various models. The differece between TYPE and MODEL is that
   
   TYPE just stores the property but model contains business logical.

   4.5 ACTION:

   ACTION layer contains various actions. The action is based upon command.
   
   ACTION = COMMANDS + BUSINESS LOGICAL

   4.6 COMMAND:

   COMMAND layer contains various commands. The command is the basis of action.
   
   COMMAND is pure command without any logical.

   4.7 BASE:

   BASE layer is the basic layer, which is the base of the iot espressif apk.

   4.8 OPEN:

   OPEN layer is used to store open api and source code, such as zxing, from others.

   4.9 DB:

   DB layer is used to make the intermediate layer between DB-gen and upper layer.

   4.10 DB-gen:

   DB-gen layer is generated by greendao to implement ORM.

   4.11 UTIL:

   UTIL layer contains various utilities classes.

   4.12 LOG:

   LOG layer is the layer about logging. Log4j is used at present.

   4.13 ESPTOUCH:

   ESPTOUCH layer contains the source code of esptouch. ESPTOUCH layer is an indepent layer.
   
   At present, only UI layer depends upon it. And it is just used to display a ESPTOUCH demo.
