WS2812 with esp-edf - Githubissues

The problem

Heyhey,

because of an addon, I need to use esp-idf framework also I need support for WS2812 LEDs. As both neopixelbus and fastled do not work, I´m now stuck ;-(. Can someone recommend me a solution for using WS2812 with esp-idf framework?

esp32: board: az-delivery-devkit-v4 framework: type: esp-idf version: latest external_components: - source: github://syssi/esphome-jk-bms@main refresh: 0s ## No work # - source: github://bbulkow/FastLED-idf@master # refresh: 0s # - source: github://mriksman/WS2812FX-idf@master # refresh: 0s light: ## No work with esp-idf # - platform: fastled_clockless # id: "${devicename}_strip" # name: "${friendly_name} LED Strip" # icon: mdi:led-strip-variant # chipset: WS2811 # pin: GPIO18 # num_leds: 8 # rgb_order: GRB ## No work with esp-idf # - platform: neopixelbus # id: "${devicename}_strip" # name: "${friendly_name} LED Strip" # icon: mdi:led-strip-variant # type: GRB # variant: 800KBPS # pin: GPIO18 # method: # type: esp32_i2s # num_leds: 8 # internal: true # default_transition_length: 3s

Thanks and regards

I'm stuck on this as well because ESP32-C3 still boot loops and won't connect to WiFi unless you use ESP-IDF. This worked fine for all of my sensors but I can't control the NeoPixels on my buttons.

@JakobTewes @TheRemote I think this might be resolved by @jesserockz with https://github.com/esphome/esphome/pull/4708 and included in 2023.5.0.

I'm using this config successfully:

light:
  - platform: esp32_rmt_led_strip
    id: led_ring
    name: "${friendly_name} Light"
    pin: GPIO19
    num_leds: 12
    rmt_channel: 0
    rgb_order: GRB
    chipset: ws2812
