New Plugin Request : Touch sensors for ESP32 about easyespnow HOT 6 OPEN

Interesting idea, and what do you think what plugin number could be used for it?

from easyespnow.

I would suggest to use a new plugin for it, since it is a switch input only.
It is also something ESPeasy will have in the (near?) future, a switch input only plugin.

For the ESP32, it has the extra option to configure such a pin to wake the node.
For touch input, it does need very specific parameters like upper level/lower level to define the state.

Thanks TD-er do you have any idea what will be the plugin id of it in ESPEasy? Maybe P101 vs original P001? :)

Nope, no idea yet, but I guess 101 is a nice one to have.
Otherwise it should be 91 or something, so 101 is fine.

Touch sensor support added in commit 5bb2747 in P102. It is a pure analog value, with a simple digital output mode if limits added correctly. But i am very displeased with it, as output values are floating around, so it is not a reliable input source. :(

In this article https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=629955.0 the solution was averaging 100 reading which looks like a little time-consuming. :(
