ESP8266 Community Forum

Hi to all !

i'de like to know if it's possible to have an ESP8266-01 module with AT commands answer possibility with a sketch uploaded, like autoconnect...

i want to be able to use this sketch for wifi connection simplicity and able to receive AT commands from an arduino plugged on 2, 3.

here is the autoconnect software:

#include <ESP8266WiFi.h> //https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino
// ce script permet a l'ESP8266 de se connecter a un wifi en spécifiant par interface web que reseau choisir...
//needed for library
#include <DNSServer.h>
#include <ESP8266WebServer.h>
#include <WiFiManager.h> //https://github.com/tzapu/WiFiManager


void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
Serial.begin(115200);

//WiFiManager
//Local intialization. Once its business is done, there is no need to keep it around
WiFiManager wifiManager;
//reset saved settings
//wifiManager.resetSettings();

//set custom ip for portal
//wifiManager.setAPStaticIPConfig(IPAddress(10,0,1,1), IPAddress(10,0,1,1), IPAddress(255,255,255,0));

//fetches ssid and pass from eeprom and tries to connect
//if it does not connect it starts an access point with the specified name
//here "AutoConnectAP"
//and goes into a blocking loop awaiting configuration
wifiManager.autoConnect("AutoConnectAP");
//or use this for auto generated name ESP + ChipID
//wifiManager.autoConnect();


//if you get here you have connected to the WiFi
Serial.println("connected...yeey ");
}

void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

}

and here is the arduino sketch, with AT commands:

#include <Filters.h>
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
#include <Adafruit_Sensor.h>
#include <DHT.h>
#include <DHT_U.h>

#define DEBUG 0
#define IP "184.106.153.149" // IP address of thingspeak.com

// Uncomment the type of sensor in use:
//#define DHTTYPE DHT11 // DHT 11
#define DHTTYPE DHT22 // DHT 22 (AM2302)

String apiKey = "xxxxxx"; // replace with your channel's thingspeak API key
const int postingInterval = 20 * 1000; // post data every 20 seconds

SoftwareSerial esp8266Module(2, 3); // RX, TX

// this runs once

{
Serial.begin(9600); // enable debug serial
esp8266Module.begin(9600);
setupEsp8266();
dht.begin();
sensor_t sensor;
dht.temperature().getSensor(&sensor);
dht.humidity().getSensor(&sensor);
}

// the loop

void loop()
{
// Get temperature event and print its value.
sensors_event_t event;
//sensors_event_h event;
dht.temperature().getEvent(&event);
float temperature = (event.temperature);
dht.humidity().getEvent(&event);
float humidity = (event.relative_humidity);
// setupEsp8266();
