Error compiler

[djsaveRUS]

I do as in the instructions on the command line and get an unsatisfactory result. Is this really supposed to work? My board is AI-thinker.

[rzeldent]

Yes, it does work.

I suspect you forgot to include the boards submodule when cloning the repo.

[djsaveRUS]

It is possible that the connection of the board item is not included in the instructions. How and at what point should this be done? The board is physically connected to the computer in boot standby mode on port 12.

[rzeldent]

you need to checkout with submodules

[djsaveRUS]

How do I do this?

[rzeldent]

Hi,

See the comment in the demo:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/rzeldent/esp32-smartdisplay-demo.git

[djsaveRUS]

What did I do wrong?

[rzeldent]

I don't know exactly; the documentation might be a but outdated but I retested it using a PlatformIO CLI prompt and, of course, it worked on my computer; see output below. The remark I made about including submodules was incorrect; the project does not use any submodules yet; However, this is something that happens often with another project.

You can also take a look at the git workflow used to build the project; https://github.com/rzeldent/esp32cam-rtsp/blob/main/.github/workflows/main.yml.

Normally I use it from Visual Studio Code with the PlatformIO plugin and load the directory. Maybe this gives some additional information. Do you have Python installed and python3-venv?

Check which version of Espressif 32 platform you have installed (if you are using the VS Code with the full PlatformIO IDE you can find out what you have buy going to the PIO Home and then selct Platforms). I had version 3.x something installed and was getting the same errors about the GPIO_NUM_NC and such. I was able to get it upgraded to 6.5.0 and everything is compiling now.

I had the same issue:

...but then I updated the Espressif32 libraries as per the advice here...

...much better result. I'd suggest you add a step in the instructions to update those libraries:

pio pkg update -g -p espressif32

... before the pio run step.

Have updated the documentation for this. Thanks for the feedback!
