This repository contains a Display component for ESPHome to support the ESP32-S3 LILYGO T5 4.7" Plus E-paper display.

(Do not confuse it with the original ESP32-based Lilygo T5 4.7 board.)

For more info in the display components, see the ESPHome display documentation

Usage

To use the board with ESPHome you have to put quite a number of options in your esphome config:

• Configure the aprpopriate board, variant, and framework versions in the esp32 platform
• Set a bunch of platformio_options
• Include the component from this repository as external_components

If you clone this repository, a working example is included:

git clone https://github.com/nickolay/esphome-lilygo-t547plus.git
cd esphome-lilygo-t547plus
esphome run basic.yaml

If you don't want to clone, copy the necessary pieces from basic.yaml and adapt the external_components configuration as follows:

# ... required esp32, platformio_options configuration omitted for brevity ...

external_components:
  - source: github://nickolay/esphome-lilygo-t547plus
    components: ["t547"]

## for those using ESPHome 2023.6.5 and earlier:
# external_components:
#   - source: github://nickolay/esphome-lilygo-t547plus@2023.6.5
#     components: [t547]

display:
- platform: t547
