Displays current weather data from open weather (https://openweathermap.org/) and your own sensor data from IotFreezer (https://iotfreezer.com/).
Adapted for 2.4in screen (I used ILI9341, for all supported options, see TFT_eSPI's docs).
Uses the ArduinoJSON library for json parsing, TFT_eSPI for drawing on the screen.
Heavily inspired by https://github.com/Bodmer/OpenWeather. Built with platformIO.
The data above the line is from OpenWeatherMap, below the line is IotFreezer.
- ESP32 or ESP8266
- TFT screen
- An account on OpenWeatherMap, to get the API key
- An account on IotFreezer and some sensor data uploaded to it
Before flashing, copy import_env.example.py to import_env.py and fill in your own configuration.
Make sure you upload the /data folder where the images and fonts reside to the ESP before flashing. You can do that with pio run --target uploadfs or just use the platformio addon for vscode and click on Upload Filesystem Image.
To generate a BMP that works with this repo, use image magick:
magick convert *.bmp -background black -alpha remove -compress none -depth 24 %d.bmp
I also did some manual soldering work and 3d printed a case for it (slides into a wall mount, so you can easily flash and upgrade it):
The repository can be found at https://github.com/xtrinch/parametric-display-casing. It's parametric, so you just measure the actual dimensions of your finished soldered product and enter them into the FreeCAD spreadsheet and print it.
