Something to add about cybersec ?
Not sure what is necessary to add
I propose to replace the ESPtool section to use Arduino or platformIO instead. Both are able to fully erase memory. What do you think ?
I am ok with that it is old - at this time no such feature in Arduino IDE
Is it OK to say platformIO is "recommended method" for build ?
Yes sure
@luc-github I double checked est PlatformIO doesn't offer erase flash for ESP8266 (only for ESP32) It's even worse because ESP8266 doesn't erase fully with upload from platformIO. I experienced some problems...
One more question: is it enough to do [ESP444]RESET
to ensure flash is clean (even if not fully erased)?
the erase flash in PIO depend of version used for 2.1 there is one entry which has it, in 3.0 all entries have it
[ESP444]RESET will only clean the EEPROM area and set clean values for ESP3D [ESP710]FORMAT will Format FS, in case of corrupted SPIFFS for example
I have been too fast I will update with ESP710. Thanks
I opened an issue here about erase: https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif8266/issues/276 but it doesn't seem to be very active. You are right it depends of the version. strange it's not documented there
@luc-github Please note this PR is ready for review (no urgence)
Looks Ok for me - thanks a lot ^_^
@all-contributors please add @atsju for documentation update
@luc-github
I've put up a pull request to add @atsju! :tada:
