theelims / strokeengine Goto Github PK

Right now the lib has no feature to set up the depth and get a live feedback. It can only go full in or full out. However, it would be desirable to have it follow the depth setting to find an optimal position before starting the stroking.

invertDirection does not appear to be implemented. Is there an easy way to invert the motor direction?

At the moment, you can download this library with the following syntax in your platformio.ini file, however it will not pull in the dependencies:

; PlatformIO Project Configuration File
;
;   Build options: build flags, source filter
;   Upload options: custom upload port, speed and extra flags
;   Library options: dependencies, extra library storages
;   Advanced options: extra scripting
;
; Please visit documentation for the other options and examples
; https://docs.platformio.org/page/projectconf.html
[env:esp32dev]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32dev
framework = arduino
lib_deps = 
    https://github.com/theelims/StrokeEngine.git#main

This is easily solved by adding an additional line:

; PlatformIO Project Configuration File
;
;   Build options: build flags, source filter
;   Upload options: custom upload port, speed and extra flags
;   Library options: dependencies, extra library storages
;   Advanced options: extra scripting
;
; Please visit documentation for the other options and examples
; https://docs.platformio.org/page/projectconf.html
[env:esp32dev]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32dev
framework = arduino
lib_deps = 
    https://github.com/theelims/StrokeEngine.git#main
    gin66/FastAccelStepper@^0.30.5

however it would be good if the dependencies could be installed automatically via https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/manifests/library-json/fields/dependencies.html

Additionally I thind Deeper does "Un-Deeper" because it pushes to a top point and then just varyies the bottom point, the top point seems to be the same

Write virtual motor driver which spits out coordinates and speeds over serial

To be used with e.g. Better Serial Plotter

Elk could be a viable candidate. Very bare bone and only exported functions. No general access to the underlying ESP

Refactor structure with dedicated motor drivers.

No state machine anymore

Two reports via Discord from abonthedl / jo_schi_man.

I just get long pauses followed by 1 random movement, and repeat. Or no motion at all. Varying the stroke length or speed seems to cause it to move again but it's intermittent at best.

I've seen similar behavior when testing the patterns during development of the new StrokeEngine.
