lvgl as a esp32-idf component about lv_port_esp32 HOT 11 CLOSED

Yes. I found it easier to work with that way.

I see. We can do it as part of the migration to v6.0.
Hopefully, I will get back my ILI9341 screen from my friend today and can update the project.

Hi,

I'm not an expert with ESP32, but what is the advantage of this structure?

Hi,

Neither i am an expert ESP32 user, but using components is just the recommendation of Espressif on how organize projects. See here.

“components” are modular pieces of standalone code which are compiled into static libraries (.a files) and linked into an app. Some are provided by esp-idf itself, others may be sourced from other places.

And below there's a tree of an example project, and explains the components directory:

This example “myProject” contains the following elements:
Optional “components” directory contains components that are part of the project. A project does not have to contain custom components of this kind, but it can be useful for structuring reusable code or including third party components that aren’t part of ESP-IDF.

Hm, this project already uses components.mk see the README. So basically the update you suggest is to move the components to a coponents folder because it's more standard?
If so, I agree, it's better to follow the ESP's rules if possible.

Yes. I found it easier to work with that way.

The component examples i uploaded in this comment are just suggestions, adapted to the new directory structure of lvgl v6.0.

Great, thanks :-)

I've updated the project I couldn't make it work with the proposed directory structure yet.
Now it has the old structure but with lvgl 6.0.

Can you take look at it?

from lv_port_esp32.

Great!, yes, i can take a look at it later today (i'm on UTC-5).

Hi,

I got it working, i also had to move the lv_conf.h and lv_ex_conf.h files into the components directory. I will have to update the git submodules path and expect the PR soon.

from lv_port_esp32.

Great! Waiting for the PR :)
