Fix Wifi AP #22

Closed zombodotcom closed 1 year ago

zombodotcom commented 1 year ago

This returns the functionality of allowing the user to setup wifi without a computer.

Improv is a great library and has a lot of things going for it, but sadly it sometimes doesn't allow the user to setup wifi after flashing the device.

No Option to setup wifi 😅

In that case, the user is unable to setup wifi, without a computer.

This fixes that by using the tried and true WifiManager to setup an AP Portal under the wifi name Clockwise

This opens up a portal allowing the user to input their credentials

which is then saved by 

ClockwiseParams::getInstance()->wifiSsid = String(WiFi.SSID());
ClockwiseParams::getInstance()->wifiPwd = String(WiFi.psk());
ClockwiseParams::getInstance()->save();

Ran it locally and worked like a charm

Hi! Thanks for the PR. I understand your necessity to setup WiFi without computer, I was working on Improv BLE to meet this requirement. I would like to use only one solution for setting the WiFi up that's why I removed the WiFiManager. I think I can back with WiFiManager for a while I'll just review the PR.

Thanks for getting back to me. I was looking into the ble one and that looks cool as well! You can close this PR if you want, I was just looking for a quick fix for the sometimes buggy improv install.
