This is a fully asynchronous Ping library for Espressif's ESP8266 MCUs. have full ping statistic and hardware MAC address
tested on 2.3.0 esp8266/Arduino patched for 2.4.x
to install:
git clone https://github.com/akaJes/AsyncPing.git ~/Arduino/libraries/AsyncPing
usage
AsyncPing ping;
/* callback for each answer/timeout of ping */
ping.on(true,[](const AsyncPingResponse& response){
IPAddress addr(response.addr); //to prevent with no const toString() in 2.3.0
if (response.answer)
Serial.printf("%d bytes from %s: icmp_seq=%d ttl=%d time=%d ms\n", response.size, addr.toString().c_str(), response.icmp_seq, response.ttl, response.time);
else
Serial.printf("no answer yet for %s icmp_seq=%d\n", addr.toString().c_str(), response.icmp_seq);
return false; //do not stop
});
/* callback for end of ping */
ping.on(false,[](const AsyncPingResponse& response){
IPAddress addr(response.addr); //to prevent with no const toString() in 2.3.0
Serial.printf("total answer from %s sent %d recevied %d time %d ms\n",addr.toString().c_str(),response.total_sent,response.total_recv,response.total_time);
if (response.mac)
Serial.printf("detected eth address " MACSTR "\n",MAC2STR(response.mac->addr));
return true; //doesn't matter
});
ping.begin(WiFi.gatewayIP());
