SX1262 is now finally stable due to these key changes:
- Interrupt handling: To circumvent erratum 3.11 level interrupts are utilized.
Unsure if this was actually an issue as only the DIO1 IRQ is installed,
but it should be done nonetheless to avoid problems once more GPIO interrupts are used.
- RadioLib HAL: Use the hooks for beginnig and ending a train of SPI transactions
to lock and reserve the device, making it more reliable. Also, CS handling is removed
as RadioLib manages this manually.
- Board T-Lora Pager: Step down SPI frequency to reasonable rate
- Refactor `AppManifest`: add new fields and rename existing ones
- Parse and validate the manifest from an app that is being installed.
- Remove deprecated `scoped()` from `Lock`
- Create `Tactility/Paths.h`
- App loading at boot now properly parses the manifest files of external apps
- Properly lock both source and destination locations during app install
- Remove LVGL path variants from `AppPaths` and `ServicePaths`
- Removed `xPath` base classes for apps and services. There's now `AppPaths` and `ServicePaths`.
- Renamed app and service paths: "data" and "system" paths are now "user data" and "assets"
- Update ILI9341 driver to v2.0.1
- Lots of code cleanup for apps
- Refactor app "type" into "category" and added flags to the manifest (for show/hide statusbar and for hidden apps)
- Rename some ElfApp-related functionality and improved the way the static data was managed
- Rename "filebrowser" to "files"
- Added cstring functions to tt_init.cpp
- Minor fix in Boot app
- Updated external apps for SDK changes
- Add implementation for CYD-E28R28T. This implementation has the SD card working, using the same driver as the CYD-2432S028R.
- Edit .gitignore for some missing things.
- run chmod +x on some build scripts
- Make EspLcdDisplay's reference public for access from drivers (needed for driver St7789i8080)
> ```class EspLcdDisplay : public tt::hal::display::DisplayDevice {```
- Added CONFIG_TT_BOARD_CYD_2432S028R in Kconfig.
- Included support for CYD2432S028R in Boards.h and board.cmake.
- Updated Xpt2046Touch driver to use configuration->spiDevice instead of SPI2_HOST when creating the SPI handle.
- Note: SD card is not working on this board yet.
This commit introduces full support for the CYD-2432S028R board and improves the touchscreen driver flexibility by allowing dynamic SPI device configuration. SD card functionality still needs to be implemented.
## Launcher
- Launcher now has optional power button to show
- Launcher layout improvements
- Removed text from Launcher (translations with larger amounts of text did not fit small device formats)
## T-Lora Pager
- Implement power off (created `BQ25896` driver)
- Implemented haptics (created `DRV2605` driver project) and buzz on startup
- Reversed scroll wheel
- Created `TloraEncoder` device and relocated its logic from `TloraKeyboard`
- Disabled SPIRAM test to save 0.5 seconds of boot time (current boot time is very slow)
- Update `ST7796` esp_lcd driver to v1.3.4
- Fixed keyboard bug: delete queue in destructor
- Fixed driver dependencies: Avoiding usage of global static shared_ptr. Properly constructor-inject everywhere, or use `tt::hal::findDevices()`
- I2C configuration is now immutable (you cannot disable it anymore from the I2C Settings app, as it would break crucial drivers)
- Renamed I2C and UART subsystems to "Internal"
## Drivers
- On/off interface added to `PowerDevice`
- Created `tt::hal::Configuration.createDevices`, which is intended to replace all custom create calls for display, keyboard, etc.
- Created `EncoderDevice` as a `Device` subtype
## Other Improvements
- Changed `findDevices(type, function)` into a templatized function.
- Improved SD card mounting
## Fixes
- Show Screenshot app again
- Fixed Statusbar: some updates were allowed to time out and fail silently: When the Statusbar service would do a state update, the LVGL statusbar would never get updated due to this timeout.
- Fixed memory leaks in all `createSdCard()` functions (in most board implementations)
## New
- Read property files with `PropertiesFile`
- Support `boot.properties` so the user can specify the launcher app and an optional app to start after the launcher finishes. (see `BootProperties.cpp`)
- Create registry for CPU affinity and update code to make use of it
- `AppRegistration` and `ServiceRegistration` now also ensure that the `/data` directories always exist for all apps
- `Notes` is now the default app for opening text files. `TextViewer` is removed entirely. Created `tt::app:🎶:start(path)` function.
- WiFi settings moved from NVS to properties file.
- Specify `*.ap.properties` file on the SD card for automatic WiFi settings import on start-up.
- Added `file::getLock(path)` and `file::withLock(path, function)` to do safe file operations on SD cards
## Improvements
- Update TinyUSB to `1.7.6~1`
- Improved `Boot.cpp` code. General code quality fixes and some restructuring to improve readability.
- `tt::string` functionality improvements
- Rename `AppRegistry` to `AppRegistration`
- Rename `ServiceRegistry` to `ServiceRegistration`
- Cleanup in `Notes.cpp`
- `FileTest.cpp` fix for PC
- Created `TestFile` helper class for tests, which automatically deletes files after the test.
- Renamed `Partitions.h` to `MountPoints.h`
- Created `std::string getMountPoints()` function for easy re-use
- Other code quality improvements
- `SdCardDevice`'s `getState()` and `isMounted()` now have a timeout argument
## Fixes
- ELF loading now has a lock so to avoid a bug when 2 ELF apps are loaded in parallel
- Refactored `TouchDevice`: it can now start/stop LVGL separately, and it has an optional `TouchDriver` interface
- Refactored `DisplayDevice`: it can now start/stop LVGL separately, and it has an optional `DisplayDriver` interface
- Updated all boards and drivers for above changes
- LVGL can now be stopped and (re)started on the fly
- Fixed issues with restarting Gui and Statusbar services
- Refactored `Gui` service to be class and renamed `Gui` to `GuiService`
- Fixed `Statusbar` service: forgot to deregister one of the icons
- Updated `esp_lcd_st7701` to v1.1.3
- `lv_textarea_create()` now automatically registers the hardware keyboard hooks (by wrapping the function)
- Fixed and updated `tactility.py`
- Cleanup of a lot of code
- `BootInitLvglBegin` and `BootInitLvglEnd` are replaced by `LvglStarted` and `LvglStopped`.
- Introduced `tt::service::State` which is accessible via `tt::service::getState()` (and internally via `ServiceInstance`)
- Started replacing `#define TAG` with `constexpr auto TAG = "..";`
- Implemented `LaunchId` to keep track of the apps that are started
- Implemented `FileSelection` app to select existing and/or new files.
- Moved some re-usable file functionality to `tt::file::`
- Renamed `Files` app to `FileBrowser`
- Updated `Notes` app to use new `FileSelection` functionality, and cleaned it up a bit.
- General code cleanliness improvements
- Fix case for board configs
- CMake now only builds a single board instead of all boards for the selected SOC. This makes it quicker to compile a single firmware.
- Implement CrowPanel Advance 3.5"
- New driver subproject: ILI9488
- New driver subproject: GT911
- Refactor T-Deck to use new driver subproject
- Fix for `flash.ps1`: don't set flash speed
- Implemented Elecrow CrowPanel Basic 2.8"
- Change default "invert" setting for ILI934x driver from `true` to `false`
- Created `Xpt2046` driver subproject
- Refactored unPhone to use new `Xpt2046` driver subproject
- Added new board
- Extracted ST7789 driver and backlight PWM driver into separate subprojects
- Refactored T-Deck to use the shared driver modules
- Fix bug in WiFi service: searching for APs was broken
- Create `Include/` folder for all main projects
- Fix some issues here and there (found while moving things)
- All includes are now in `Tactility/` subfolder and must be included with that prefix. This fixes issues with clashing POSIX headers (e.g. `<semaphore.h>` versus Tactility's `Semaphore.h`)
- Remove custom `ESP_TARGET` and use `ESP_PLATFORM` everywhere
- Add `Loader` service functionality to `tt::app::` namespace
- Make `Loader` `PubSub` usable by exposing the messages
- Add board type to crash log
- Don't show SD card in Files app when it's not mounted
- Set default SPI frequency for SD cards
- Move TT_VERSION to scope that works for sim too
- Log Tactility version and board on boot
- Rename "Yellow Board" to "CYD 2432S024C"
- Refactor the way apps work: Instead of a C interface, they are now C++ classes. The main reasoning is that attaching data to an app was cumbersome. Having different implementations for different kinds of apps was cumbersome too. (3 or 4 layers of manifest nesting for the TactilityC project)
- External apps are still written in C, but they get a createData/destroyData in their manifest, so:
- External apps now have their own manifest.
- All functions in the original AppManifest are removed and replaced by a single `createApp` function
- External apps now automatically register (each app individually!) when they run the first time. As a side-effect they become visible in the `AppList` app!
- Adapted all apps for the new interface.
- Adapted all internal logic for these changes (Gui, ViewPort, Loader, AppContext, AppInstance, etc.)
- Rewrote parts of Loader to use std::shared_ptr to make the code much safer.
- Added a refcount check for the `AppInstance` and `App` at the end of their lifecycle. Show warning if refcount is too high.
- Implemented [unPhone](https://unphone.net/) v9 board
- Updated `.clang-format` to better reflect the intended code style
- Fix SD card compatibility issues for all boards (frequency wasn't set well)
- Moved `I2cDevice` class from CoreS3 board project to TactilityHeadless project
- Tactility configuration now has default empty lists for apps and services fields
- Fix for Launcher app: we don't need padding when showing it vertically
- Fix for I2cDevice read/write calls that checked for `esp_err_t` instead of `bool`
- Fix for TinyUSB init that checked for `esp_err_t` instead of `bool`
## Time & Date
- Added time to statusbar widget
- Added Time & Date Settings app
- Added TimeZone app for selecting TimeZone
- Added `tt::time` namespace with timezone code
## Other changes
- Added `SystemEvent` to publish/subscribe to system wide (e.g. for init code, but also for time settings changes)
- Changed the way the statusbar widget works: now there's only 1 that gets shown/hidden, instead of 1 instance per app instance.
- Moved `lowercase()` function to new namespace: `tt::string`
- Increased T-Deck flash & PSRAM SPI frequencies to 120 MHz (from 80 MHz)
- Temporary work-around (+ TODO item) for LVGL stack size (issue with WiFi app)
- Suppress T-Deck keystroke debugging to debug level (privacy issue)
- Improved SDL dependency wiring in various `CMakeLists.txt`
- `Loader` service had some variables renamed to the newer C++ style (from previous C style)
I2C:
- Lock timeout set to reasonable times
- Check lock status in all functions
- Refactor lock/unlock to return `bool` values
- Implement functions in TactilityC
Other:
- Updated screenshots
Remove dependencies M5Unified and M5GFX because:
- Sometimes the release doesn't even compile
- The amount of functions is too close to the limit (I recently had to remove some code/dependency to be able to make a build at all)
- Graphics performance issue since last update
- Touch screen performance issues (not perfect yet, but better)
- Compatibility issues with Tactility SPI/I2C versus M5Unified/M5GFX variants.
