ESP8266 TCP Client SDK
Posted: Mon Jul 03, 2017 4:09 pm
Hi All,
Let me first start saying this is my first post on this forum and the ESP modules are awesome!
I'm very new with these chips but have been developing enterprise applications for years and now a project appeared with a IoT board.
Since thee is so much out there is was hoping some one could help me out. I want to use the ESP as a simpele TCP client that connects with à TCP server. Then let the TCP server control its GPIO. I can imagine that alot of people want this. And was hoping that someone or community has developed a SDK/Library that simply lets the ESP be controlled via a TCP connection with minimal code on the ESP side.
Meaning that i can create a TCP server that the ESP connects to and then use predifend commands to control the ESP via TCP. A command for example: Set GPO 4 High / GPO_xxxH
I've googled for hours and tried platforms like NodeMCU and WiFiMulti for Arduino. Which all works but seeams that i have to "reinvend" a lot of wheals. (Correct me if i'm wrong)
So long story short: is there some project i can use to control the ESP via TCP with standard commands?
