ESP8266 Arduino add-on
Arduino IDE 1.6.5

- Mon Aug 10, 2015 11:50 am #25541 Added an example which uses file system together with ArduinoJson library to store/load a configuration file (File > Examples > ESP8266 > ConfigFile).

Also updated the docs for file system to mention that you need to include "FS.h". Fixed SeekMode enum to be available without fs:: namespace designator.

(plus, latest staging version includes SDK 1.3)

- Tue Aug 11, 2015 3:22 am #25638 Then you suggest, to integrate the latest staging release (1.6.5-1044-g170995a) into Arduino-IDE?
Because of the SPIFFS-Stuff is already integrated?

Massive thanks for the example buddy, this opens up so may possibilities.
Config example is a superb starting point to learn SPIFFS and also JSON formatting.

How easy would it be to check a server for a given file, if the date of the file is greater download new file and store in SPIFFS. This would be amazing and allow for remote updating of configuration data.

Incredible work you have done since the start of ESP IDE the community owes you a massive beer!
