M5ez, a complete interface builder system for the M5Stack as an Arduino library. Extremely easy to use.

[Rop]

Just released: M5ez 2.0.0

 

• Simply install from the Arduino Library Manager..
• But then be ready to make some changes to existing code

 

From the User Manual:

What's new in M5ez 2.x ?

• Many user-selectable settings, including backlight, clock/timezone, FACES keyboard, etc.
• Theme values can be changed at runtime, multiple thmes can be loaded; a theme chooser then shows up in the settings
• Header can have user-defined widgets (internally used for clock and wifi signal display)
• The canvas now inherits from the Print class, so everything print and println could do, you can now also do on the canvas.
• The canvas scrolls (unless you don't want it to)
• you can create your own events that get ran in the M5ez button wait loops
• Many bugs got fixed
• Code is a lot cleaner now, easier to add things without the sometimes ad-hoc and organically grown constructs of M5ez 1.x

However, all of this comes with some changes to the names of common functions in M5ez. Generally things are more consistent now, but that does mean they are different: your M5ez 1.x code will not run without modifications. I am not planning an M5ez 3.0 at this time, so expect no further modifications to be needed to existing code for a while.

Converting code from M5ez 1.x to 2.x

To convert code form 1.x to 2.x, it is recommended you start by replacing the following functions:

M5ez 1.x		M5ez 2.x
ez.clearScreen()	—>	ez.screen.clear()
ez.background()	—>	ez.screen.background()
ez.drawHeader(	—>	ez.header.show(
ez.removeHeader()	—>	ez.header.hide()
ez.clearCanvas()	—>	ez.canvas.clear()
ez.canvasTop()	—>	ez.canvas.top()
ez.canvasBottom()	—>	ez.canvas.bottom()
ez.canvasLeft()	—>	ez.canvas.left()
ez.canvasRight()	—>	ez.canvas.right()
ez.canvasWidth()	—>	ez.canvas.width()
ez.canvasHeight()	—>	ez.canvas.height()
ez.print(	—>	ez.canvas.print(
ez.println(	—>	ez.canvas.println(
ez.drawButtons(	—>	ez.buttons.show(
ez.getButtons(	—>	ez.buttons.poll(
ez.waitForButtons(	—>	ez.buttons.wait(

Then, check all your print functions: they no longer support the setting of font, location or color in the statement itself: these need to be done with ez.canvas.font, ez.canvas.color etc. (Print is much nicer now because the canvas object inherited from the Print class, and because the canvas can scroll now.)

Then simply fix any remaining problems by first fixing any compiler complaints with this document in hand, and then walk through all of your program's functionality to see if everything works as expected.

 

Please consider starring the repository: it helps people find M5ez.

Can any users of M5ez that are using it with an M5Stack Fire briefly report whether any LED bars display spurious behaviour? I ave one report of an LED bar staying blue, and one case (my own Fire) where they stay off.

Thanks...

[PlayTheGame]

Tested M5ez-demo on a Fire. Compiled with Arduino 1.8.7 with PSRAM=enabled. No issue, no Neopixel, no crackling sound during boot, everything flawlessly.
Also the OTA Update worked. Maybe the user should try the included OTA application and exclude compiling errors by flashing your github binary?

[Rop]

@playthegame excellent report, and good suggestion to try OTA. Thanks...

[yurikleb]

This is Awesome! Great work!
I'm wondering if there something similar for MicroPython?
Or are there any plans creating a python version for M5ez?
Would be amazing!

[Rop]

@yurikleb I haven't really played with micropython much: I built M5ez in part because micropython didn't really run well on the memory-restrained M5Stack I had. I know things ar edifferent with the Fire, and it wouldn't be crazy hard to create python bindings for M5ez. I just haven't done any python bindings before, and I'd prefer to stay focused on making M5ez better instead. But I will gladly support anyone else that feels like doing the python bindings.

(I even had crazy thoughts of a Web-IDE where you can essentially build the entire interface in the browser, What You See Is What You Get. But seems a little ambitious and not sure how much actual use it would get.)

[yurikleb]

@rop Web-IDE sounds cool, have you seen the M5Flow IDE?
It seems to be python based, and the firmware comes with a module called m5ui which has some basic UI elements you can work with, and it also has a WYSIWYG editor.
Was trying to find the m5ui module on github but had no luck.

Hi! First of all, thank you for your work on this project. I am trying to use it as my very first sketch for m5stack, so I downloaded v2.0.1 and tried to load the demo from examples folder but I get a lot of errors. Is it compatible with v2.x?

[ajb2k3]

@crazyhorse80
What demo are you trying and what errors because im running 2.0
(sorry @Rop I forgot to update :P )

[Rop]

@crazyhorse80 Yes, as mentioned by @ajb2k3 it would be quite helpful to know which example program and which errors.

[CrazyHorse80]

@rop
The sketch I'm trying to load is M5ez-demo from examples\M5ez in Arduino IDE v1.8.7. I have ezTime v0.7.6 and M5ez v2.0.1 installed and I get a whole lot of errors when compiling.

I can load other M5Stack examples but not those in the M5ez directory. Any idea? Thanks in advance!
PS: Please forgive my bad English but I'm from Italy...

I think ( but i am a noob) that the location of your libraries are not right.

Got multiple versions of the arduino ide installed ?

C:\arduino-1.8.7\libraries\WiFi
C:\arduino-1.8.7\hardware\espressif\esp32\libraries\WiFi
C:\arduino-1.8.7\portable\sketchbook\libraries\M5ez\

My best guess is to clean up other versions..... or update all versions on your system to m5ez 2.01

@crazyhorse80 Please don't apologise for being Italian, it happens in the best families :)

The interesting thing is that some of these compiler warnings/errors are real. Sometimes a non-void function indeed returned nothing, some of the other errors are rather nitpicky. Thing is that my IDE never cared about these things: I had "Arduino / Preferences / Compiler Warnings" set to "Default". You must have it set higher. Naturally all of these errors need to be fixed in my code, and I will do so over the next few days and release 1.0.2. Until then, simply set "Compiler Warnings" to "None" and all will be good...

(I have no idea what your undoubtably Italian version of the IDE calls "Arduino / Preferences / Compiler Warnings", but you'll figure it out...)

Sorry for the inconvenience, my bad...

[CrazyHorse80]

Thank you all for your replies. I have multiple versions of the Arduino IDE installed but they're all portable installations and they all run fine.
I will change compiler configuration as suggested and I 'll let you know how it' ll do.
PS: nice joke ;)

[CrazyHorse80]

Setting compiler warnings to none made it load and execute. Thank you! I hope you can fix it soon 'cause I think it'll be the base for all my M5Stack sketches! ;)

EDIT: The only thing I can't get working is OTA update... It stops at around 212kB for timeout every time, even near to the router. Is it supposed to actually work?

EDIT 2: Are you planning to support multi language interface in near future? I think it would be great to have a simple way to change language something like themes, wouldn't it be?

[Rop]

@crazyhorse80 Good that it works now...

OTA: The underlying "Upgrade.h" library is not very robust: it gives up too easily. I am planning to use functions from it but replicate the main loop in my own code and give it longer timeouts. Strange that it's at the same number of bytes though: I have it giving up at random points sometimes, more often when further from access point. But then some days it works fine.

Multi-language: Depending on how it's done can make the code quite a bit bigger, and ayt a minimum needs printf statements with the variables as arguments to make up for different grammar structures. So that's quite a bit of work to stick in, but I'll place it on my list of possible features. (No clue how to do Mandarin or Right-To-Left languages or anything like that though. That will at least also involve providing the fonts, if Adafruit's gfx library even does things like that.

@rop: awesome project ;-)

Question : how can I preconfigure wifi settings (ssid, pass) for my application on m5 without playing with ez.wifi.menu ??

[Rop]

@macle Depends on what you need. Are you mass-programming a bunch of devices? The easiest way is probably to add a bit of code to your program that does this. Haven't tested, but something like this should work:

void setup() {
  ez.begin();
  [...]
  if (ez.wifi.indexForSSID("your-ssid") == -1) {
    ez.wifi.add("your-ssid", "your-key");
    ez.wifi.writeFlash();
  }
  [...]
}

(It's all here in the manual.)

[CrazyHorse80]

@rop
That should be
ez.wifi.indexForSSID("your-ssid")
;)

Can I ask if someone has already integrated a simple web server with your software? Could you point me to some easy example? Thank you!
Basically I have an Arduino board sending GET requests to my M5Stack address and I need to decode the GET string and display some variable value on screen every time I got a new connection.
