Update to WebUI V3 ? #166

Open mathojojo opened 2 years ago

mathojojo commented 2 years ago

Hello,

Would it be possible to upgrade firmwares with the last available version of WebUI (v3). It seems to be a nice upgrade, with more options, better integration, and can fit perfectly Smartphones and Tablet design.

https://github.com/luc-github/ESP3D-WEBUI/blob/3.0/Features.md GRBL WebUI v3

Thank you

Mathojojo,

I will definitely revisit WebUI (v3) - we've been aware of it for a while; development on the GRBL adaptation has been very slow going. Once it's been complete - I agree the integration will be very nice.

If you haven't updated the webUI from the stock load - there is an up-to-date and much cleaner version for Smartphone and Tablet available here: index.html.gz

OTA (Over The Air) WebUI Update:

To upload/update the WebUI, upload the index.html.gz via WiFi. With the WebUI open, click on the ESP3D tab. Now click on the ~~yellow~~ green cloud icon.

Delete old index.html.gz and select and upload new index.html.gz

Once the upload is complete, you'll need to reset and reconnect to the xPro to view the new WebUI

NOTE: these are files that are stored on the ESP32 SPIFFS (SPI Flash File System). These files are part of the ESP3D WEBUI

Again a good news for the WebUI v3, thank you.

For the last index.html.gz, thank you as well. For the replacement process, I just correct that the green button should be clicked, not the yellow (Just to be sure that someone doesn't try to flash the firmware with an html). WebUI_update

Note : I tested the new index.html interface on my smartphone, it's much better, Thank you.

Hi, I tried updating the index.html.gz file like described above. But with my 10 thumbs I uploaded the wrong file and now I don’t know how to get the webUI back. I tried pulling the SD card out and replacing the index file on the computer, but that didn’t make any difference. Is there any way to restore the webUI? Regards

With our xpro powered and your computer connected via wifi, try to open the following URL in your web browser. http://192.168.1.69/?forcefallback=yes (use the address of your ESP32)

next, you should be prompted to load the data file that contains the WebUI
Use the Choose Files button to select that file, then click the Upload button
Once the file has loaded, refresh your browser

Hi @Spark-Concepts, That did the trick. I am now up and running again, Thank you.
