WiFiThermostat - Changelog

0.4.0 2019-01-04

  • updated ESP8266 Arduino Core to v2.6.3
  • updated LiquidCrystal_I2C library to v1.1.3 (former version had compatibility issues with core 2.6 as it seems) https://github.com/johnrickman/LiquidCrystal_I2C/releases
  • updated DHT-sensor-library (Adafruit) to v1.3.8
  • updated ArduinoJson library from 5.13.0 to 6.13.0, which includes breaking changes, so some code had to be changed as described here: https://arduinojson.org/v6/doc/upgrade/
  • updated PersWiFiManager library to v5.0.0
  • completely redesigned web interface with new features
  • (multi)user and admin mode for web interface
  • fixed/improved: HTTP authentication handling
  • improved MQTT (re)connection handling and heartbeat feature
  • removed Domoticz support completely
  • code cleanups

0.3.3 2019-11-05

  • DHT sensor reading - retry if failed (does not fix issue)
  • improved temperature sensor timeout handling
  • updated Adafruit DHT22 sensor lib to 1.3.7 - that seems to have finally fixed the sensor reading issue
  • renamed "misc" to "scheduler" as it contains only timing/scheduling functions

0.3.2 2019-10-18

  • fixed/improved: HTTP authentication handling
  • added: device hostname (announced via DHCP) can now be configured
  • fixed: restart function on web interface
  • added: show AP SSID + password on display for some seconds when AP mode is entered

0.3.1 2019-10-16

  • fixed (issue #1): LCD - outside temp - wrong alignment on 1.1 digit values
  • added: configurable labels for inside and outside temperature ("I" and "O" in EN or "A" in DE)
  • fixed (issue #2): when (new) configuration values are not yet saved, initial values from source code are overwritten with blanks (only for most important values, not for MQTT topics, servers, users etc)

0.3.0 2019-10-11

  • split "mode" to "mode" and "preset", changes in nearly all source files
  • add In+Out Temperature display (without humidity) without toggling on LCD line 1
  • add publish topic "presetName" and "presetHA", where presetHA returns "none" for default preset and the name for the rest
  • add configuration for preset names, off-message, option for non toggling temp display (conf2 page)
  • minor fixed in http api and Web-IF
  • fixes/improvements in MQTT handling (subscribe to less topics than before using wildcard)
  • restart function: when holding down MODE button for >4s, display shows "Restart?". Restart is executed when:
    • MODE button is keeped holding
    • MODE button is pressed/held again as long as the "Restarting?" message is displayed
  • return to default operation mode when + or - button is pressed
  • changed position of preset mode indicator - now in LCD line 2 after the set temp
  • added "flame" symbol in LCD line 2, shown when the heating is active
  • added connection symbol (also LCD line 2), depending on received MQTT HEARTBEAT messages
  • added fullscreen messages for WiFi connect and MQTT connect
    • shows IP on startup and successful WiFi connection
    • shows AP mode notification and SSID on unsuccessful WiFi connection
    • shows to which MQTT broker we are connected if connecting was successful
  • added halfscreen (line 2) notifications - used for displaying the full name of the preset when using the MODE button
  • fixed http authentication

0.2.2 2019-05-31

  • Home Assistant direct support (setTemp and setMode topics, real name used in setMode, mode names are configurable)
  • added MQTT connection message on LWT topic
  • default MQTT_HEARTBEAT_MAXAGE 180000 (former 12000)
  • updated PubSubClient to 2.7 (now included in src due to changed parameters)
  • minor improvements at MQTT connecting
  • added additional publish topic for PIR sensor (configurable)
  • bugfixes

0.2.1 2018-02-28

  • added second reduction mode with different set temperature
  • MQTT reconnect now tries again every 5 min after 10 fails, finally restarts MCU on 20 unsuccessful retries

0.2.0 2018-02-16

  • improved MQTT reconnection management with heartbeat and force-reconnect
  • improved MQTT callback function
  • improved overall stability
  • added correction value for set point temperature
  • added some defines for default values
  • added http control api with token
  • added mqttReconnect http call
  • bugfixes
  • some documentation

Important: for now compiled using Arduino 1.8.5 with ESP8266-Arduino core 2.4.0-rc2, as WiFi (re)connection does not work properly in release 2.4.0 (spent many hours on that)!!

0.1.3 2018-02-08

  • button handling now uses library r89m/PushButton.h
  • added support for external PIR motion sensor, can be configured to enable display backlight on movement, pushes status to Domoticz and MQTT
  • lots of code improvements
  • removed unused libraries, added library overview in README.md, included only used libraries
  • added some initial description text in README.md
  • added heating switch device - send to domoticz/in
  • improved MQTT reconnect behavior. Retry every 15s if 1-3 connnects failed and just every 5 min if more to avoid blocking.
