  223. <h2>How it works</h2>
  224. <p>
  225. ESP Web Tools works by combining
  226. <a
  227. href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Serial_API"
  228. >Web Serial</a
  229. >, <a href="https://www.improv-wifi.com/">Improv Wi-Fi</a> (optional),
  230. and a manifest which describes the firmware. ESP Web Tools detects the
  231. chipset of the connected ESP device and automatically selects the right
  232. firmware variant from the manifest.
  233. </p>
  234. <p>
  235. Web Serial is available in Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge
  236. browsers<span class="not-supported-i hidden">
  237. (but not on your iOS device)</span
  238. >. Android support should be possible but has not been implemented yet.
  239. </p>
  240. <h3 id="improv">Configuring Wi-Fi</h3>
  241. <p>
  242. ESP Web Tools supports the
  243. <a href="https://www.improv-wifi.com/serial"
  244. >Improv Wi-Fi serial standard</a
  245. >. This is an open standard to allow configuring Wi-Fi via the serial
  246. port.
  247. </p>
  248. <p>
  249. If the firmware supports Improv, a user will be asked to connect the
  250. device to the network after installing the firmware. Once connected, the
  251. device can send the user to a URL to finish configuration. For example,
  252. this can be a link to the device's IP address where it serves a local
  253. UI.
  254. </p>
  255. <p>
  256. At any time in the future a user can use ESP Web Tools to find the
  257. device link or to reconfigure the Wi-Fi settings without doing a
  258. reinstall.

  279. <h2 id="add-website">Adding ESP Web Tools to your website</h2>
  280. <p>
  281. To add this to your own website, you need to include the ESP Web Tools
  282. JavaScript files on your website, create a manifest file and add the ESP
  283. Web Tools button HTML.
  284. </p>
  285. <p>
  286. <a href="https://github.com/balloob/squeezelite-esp32-install"
  287. >Click here to see a full example.</a
  288. >
  289. </p>
  290. <p>
  291. <b>Step 1:</b> Load ESP Web Tools JavaScript on your website by adding
  292. the following HTML snippet.
  293. </p>
  294. <pre>
  295. &lt;script
  296. type="module"
  297. src="https://unpkg.com/esp-web-tools@8.0.5/dist/web/install-button.js?module"
  298. >&lt;/script></pre
  299. >
  300. <p>
  301. (If you prefer to locally host the JavaScript,
  302. <a href="https://unpkg.com/browse/esp-web-tools/dist/web/"
  303. >download it here</a
  304. >)
  305. </p>
  306. <p>
  307. <b>Step 2:</b> Find a place on your page where you want the button to
  308. appear and include the following bit of HTML. Update the
  309. <code>manifest</code> attribute to point at your manifest file.
  310. </p>
  311. <pre>
  312. &lt;esp-web-install-button
  313. manifest="/static/firmware_build/manifest.json"
  314. >&lt;/esp-web-install-button></pre
  315. >
  316. <p>
  317. <b>Note:</b> ESP Web Tools requires that your website is served over
  318. <code>https://</code> to work. This is a Web Serial security
  319. requirement.
  320. </p>
  321. <p>
  322. If your manifest or the firmware files are hosted on another server,
  323. make sure you configure
  324. <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS"
  325. >the CORS-headers</a
  326. >
  327. such that your website is allowed to fetch those files by adding the
  328. header
  329. <code
  330. >Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://domain-of-your-website.com</code
  331. >.
  332. </p>
  333. <p>
  334. ESP Web Tools can also be integrated in your projects by installing it
  335. <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/esp-web-tools">via NPM</a>.
  336. </p>
  337. <h3 id="manifest">Creating your manifest</h3>
  338. <p>
  339. Manifests describe the firmware that you want to offer the user to
  340. install. It allows specifying different builds for the different types
  341. of ESP devices. Current supported chip families are
  342. <code>ESP8266</code>, <code>ESP32</code>, <code>ESP32-C3</code>,
  343. <code>ESP32-S2</code> and <code>ESP32-S3</code>. The correct build will
  344. be automatically selected based on the type of the connected ESP device.
  345. </p>
  346. <pre>
  347. {
  348. "name": "ESPHome",
  349. "version": "2021.11.0",
  350. "home_assistant_domain": "esphome",
  351. "funding_url": "https://esphome.io/guides/supporters.html",
  352. "new_install_prompt_erase": false,
  353. "builds": [
  354. {
  355. "chipFamily": "ESP32",
  356. "parts": [
  357. { "path": "bootloader.bin", "offset": 4096 },
  358. { "path": "partitions.bin", "offset": 32768 },
  359. { "path": "ota.bin", "offset": 57344 },
  360. { "path": "firmware.bin", "offset": 65536 }
  361. ]
  362. },
  363. {
  364. "chipFamily": "ESP8266",
  365. "parts": [
  366. { "path": "esp8266.bin", "offset": 0 }
  367. ]
  368. }
  369. ]
  370. }</pre
  371. >
  372. <p>
  373. Each build contains a list of parts to be installed to the ESP device.
  374. Each part consists of a path to the file and an offset on the flash
  375. where it should be installed. Part paths are resolved relative to the
  376. path of the manifest, but can also be URLs to other hosts.
  377. </p>
  378. <p>
  379. If your firmware is supported by Home Assistant, you can add the
  380. optional key <code>home_assistant_domain</code>. If present, ESP Web
  381. Tools will link the user to add this device to Home Assistant.
  382. </p>
  383. <p>
  384. By default a new installation will erase all data before installation.
  385. If you want to leave this choice to the user, set the optional manifest
  386. key
  387. <code>new_install_prompt_erase</code> to <code>true</code>. ESP Web
  388. Tools offers users a new installation if it is unable to detect the
  389. current firmware of the device (via Improv Serial) or if the detected
  390. firmware does not match the name specififed in the manifest.
  391. </p>
  392. <p>
  393. When a firmware is first installed on a device, it might need to do some
  394. time consuming tasks like initializing the file system. By default ESP
  395. Web Tools will wait 10 seconds to receive an Improv Serial response to
  396. indicate that the boot is completed. You can increase this timeout by
  397. setting the optional manifest key
  398. <code>new_install_improv_wait_time</code> to the number of seconds to
  399. wait. Set to <code>0</code> to disable Improv Serial detection.
  400. </p>
  401. <p>
  402. If your product accepts donations you can add
  403. <code>funding_url</code> to your manifest. This allows you to link to
  404. your page explaining the user how they can fund development. This link
  405. is visible in the ESP Web Tools menu when connected to a device running
  406. your firmware (as detected via Improv).
  407. </p>
  408. <p>
  409. ESP Web Tools allows you to provide your own check if the device is
  410. running the same firmware as specified in the manifest. This check can
  411. be setting the <code>overrides</code> property on
  412. <code>&lt;esp-web-install-button&gt;</code>. The value is an object
  413. containing a
  414. <code>checkSameFirmware(manifest, improvInfo)</code> function. The
  415. <code>manifest</code> parameter is your manifest and
  416. <code>improvInfo</code> is the information returned from Improv:
  417. <code>{ name, firmware, version, chipFamily }</code>. This check is only
  418. called if the device firmware was detected via Improv.
