# Testing the ESP32 and Arduino IDE
## Introduction
This repository shows the basic usage of the Arduino IDE with the ESP32 development board by implementing a blinking LED and serial communication.
# Programming the ESP32 Board
For this example course, we are going to use the ESP32-S WROOM, **please check what board you are using**.
![](./esp32swroom.jpg)
then, we need to install the Arduino IDE to program the ESP32.
## Installing the Arduino IDE
The Arduino IDE can be installed on *Windows, MacOS, or GNU Linux*, the Windows and MacOS installation is commonly using the installer. In the case of the *GNU Linux* it is highly recommended to use the distribution's package manger. In my case, the ArchLinux manager is *pacman*, thus use:
```
sudo pacman -Sy arduino
[sudo] password for gmarx:

:: Proceed with installation? [Y/n]
```
**Note: The Arduino IDE requires Java jdk8 and jre8 installed on the OS.**
**Note: You can install a Dark theme by [following these instructions]()**
## Adding the ESP32 Boards
The addition of the ESP32 boards requires to include a URL to download a *Board Manager* by clicking on `File -> Preferences` and pasting the URL `https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json` in the field *Additional Boards Manager URLs*:
```
https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json
```
![](./board.png)
Next, we can install the ESP32 board on Arduino IDE by `Tools -> Board -> Boards Manager ...`, and writte `ESP32` to install the tools required to work with:
![](./install-board.png)
# Sample code to test ESP32
Before start programming the ESP32 board we have to select the proper board in the `Board` tool. Thus, again open and select the `Tools -> Bord -> DOIT ESP32 DEVKIT V1`. Then, paste the next code segtion to test the ESP32 board; the code is also the `blinking-serial.ino`file:
```
/*
*
* Example code for ESP32-S:
* The code blinks the onboard LED (at D2 in GPIO 02) every 0.500 seconds.
* The code also prints by serial communcation the word "Hello" during the
* ON stage of the LED, and then prints "World" during the OFF.
* Gerardo Marx 19/Jul/2022
*/
// this variable is defined in pins_arduino.h for DOIT ESP32 DEVKIT V1
// int LED_BUILTIN = 02;
int LED_ONBOARD = 02;
void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
//serial monitor setup
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
Serial.print("ON");
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);
delay(500);
// after delay
Serial.print(" - OFF\n");
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);
delay(500);
```
next, press `Crt-u` to compile and upload the code generated into the board.
## The error `no module named serial`
If you get an error like this:
```
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'serial'
exit status 1
Error compiling for board DOIT ESP32 DEVKIT V1.
```
then, it is necessary to install in python:
```
pip3 install pyserial
```
and must probably you will requiere pip3 python package manager:
```
sudo pacman -Sy python-pip
```
## `Permission denied: '/dev/ttyUSB0'`
```
ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 188, 0 Aug 7 14:50 /dev/ttyUSB0
```
```
sudo usermod -a -G uucp $USER
groups
libvirt uucp gmarx
```
**Note: you need to relogin into you session.**
