Please support m5stack-coreink board #1196

Open ax42 opened 3 years ago

ax42 commented 3 years ago

Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like

Support for https://docs.m5stack.com/#/en/core/coreink

Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:

As per the platformio documentation, the board is supported: https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/boards/espressif32/m5stack-coreink.html#board-espressif32-m5stack-coreink

When I put m5stack-coreink as the board type in the esphome config, I get an 'could not find board' error.

Additional context

Currently using esphome 1.16.2 (Home Assistant addon)

What if you try the following:

esphome:
  name: "$[devicename}"
  platform: esp32
  board: m5stack-core-esp32
  platformio_options:
    platform: espressif32
    board: m5stack-coreink
    board_build.mcu: esp32
    board_build.f_cpu: 240000000L

Thanks. It allows me to proceed to the compilation step, but that has an 'unknown board' error.

(for anyone copy-pasting the above, there is a small typo, should be name: "${devicename}" (note the curly braces)

koenvervloesem commented 3 years ago

Is your PlatformIO the newest version?

ax42 commented 3 years ago

It's the one within the home assistant plug-in. How do I check / update?

koenvervloesem commented 3 years ago

Sorry, I'm not sure. I'm using ESPHome and PlatformIO standalone, not as a Home Assistant add-on.

ax42 commented 3 years ago

I've just tried with the esphome/esphome:dev docker image (v1.18.0-dev), and get the same error on compilation.

koenvervloesem commented 3 years ago

Weird. I don't have a CoreInk device, but I've used the same approach successfully for another board that is supported in PlatformIO but not in ESPHome.

asteele4 commented 3 years ago

I'd also like to see this device supported. As well as the board, support is needed to the e-paper display (gdew0154M09).

ax42 commented 2 years ago

Board now seems to be supported (the code compiles) using the sketch below, any ideas on how to get the e-paper display working (as per previous comment)?

esp32:
  board: m5stack-coreink

ax42 commented 1 year ago

Anything new here?

witasekl commented 1 year ago

Hi @ax42, I've implemented external component for the e-paper display. Check my repo here: https://github.com/witasekl/gdew0154m09
