Why do we need this Blynk_WiFiNINA_WM library

Features

This is a Blynk and WiFiNINA WiFiManager Library for configuring/auto(re)connecting boards to available MultiBlynk servers at runtime. Connection is with or without SSL. Configuration data to be saved in either LittleFS, SPIFFS, EEPROM, DueFlashStorage or FlashStorage. Default Credentials as well as Dynamic custom parameters can be added and modified easily without coding knowledge.

DoubleResetDetector is used to force Config Portal opening even if the Credentials are still valid.

This is the new library, adding to the current Blynk_WiFiManager. It's designed to help you eliminate hardcoding your Blynk credentials in **Teensy, SAM DUE, SAMD21, SAMD51, nRF52, ESP8266, ESP32, RP2040-based, etc. boards using WiFiNINA shields.

  • You can update Blynk Credentials any time you need to change via Configure Portal. Data are saved in configurable locations in LittleFS, EEPROM, DueFlashStorage, FlashStorage_SAMD or FlashStorage_STM32
  • Teensy 2.0++ and 2.0 not supported.
  • STM32 must have 64K+ Flash to use Blynk WiFiManager features
  • DoubleDetectDetector feature to force Config Portal when double reset is detected within predetermined time, default 10s.
  • Configurable Config Portal Title to be either BoardName or default undistinguishable names.
  • Examples are redesigned to separate Credentials / Defines / Dynamic Params / Code so that you can change Credentials / Dynamic Params quickly for each device

The RP2040-based boards, such as RASPBERRY_PI_PICO, are currently supported using Earle Philhower's arduino-pico core or Arduino-mbed RP2040 core with Blynk/WiFiManager features thanks to LittleFS support.

New recent features:

  • MultiWiFi feature for configuring/auto(re)connecting Generic WiFi (WiFiNINA, WINC1500/WiFi101, WiFiEsp, etc.) shields to the available MultiWiFi APs at runtime.
  • DoubleDetectDetector feature to force Config Portal when double reset is detected within predetermined time, default 10s.
  • Powerful-yet-simple-to-use feature to enable adding dynamic custom parameters from sketch and input using the same Config Portal. Config Portal will be auto-adjusted to match the number of dynamic parameters.
  • Optional default Credentials as well as Dynamic parameters to be optionally autoloaded into Config Portal to use or change instead of manually input.
  • Dynamic custom parameters to be saved automatically in non-volatile memory, such as Teensy EEPROM, SAMD EEPROM-emulated FlashStorage_SAMD, STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 EEPROM-emulated FlashStorage_STM32, SAM DUE DueFlashStorage or nRF52/RP2040 LittleFS.
  • Configurable Config Portal Title to be either BoardName or default undistinguishable names.
  • Examples are designed to separate Credentials / Defines / Dynamic Params / Code so that you can change Credentials / Dynamic Params quickly for each device.
  • Control Config Portal from software or Virtual Switches
  • To permit autoreset after configurable timeout if DRD/MRD or non-persistent forced-CP
  • Use new nRF52, RP2040 LittleFS, SAMD FlashStorage_SAMD and STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 FlashStorage_STM32 features
  • Scan WiFi networks for selection in Configuration Portal

  8. BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA.h with BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_UNO_WiFi_WM_Small.h for UNO WiFi R2 boards not using dynamic parameters if not enough memory.

to use Blynk only, with hardcoded Credentials, replace

  1. BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA.h with BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_SAMD.h for SAMD boards.
  2. BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA.h with BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_Teensy.h for Teensy boards.
  3. BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA.h with BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_nRF52.h for nRF52 boards.
  4. BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA.h with BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_DUE.h for SAM DUE boards.
  5. BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA.h with BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_STM32.h for STM32 boards.
  6. BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA.h with BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_AVR.h for Mega boards.
  7. BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA.h with BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_UNO_WiFi.h for UNO WiFi R2 boards.

to use EEPROM/LittlFS/FlashStorage_SAMD/FlashStorage_STM32 to save your configuration data.

2. EEPROM info

  1. EEPROM_SIZE can be specified from 256 to 4096 bytes for Mega boards.
  2. For SAMD21 boards, data is stored in FlashStorage using 256-byte block. For SAMD51 boards, data is stored in FlashStorage using 8-Kbyte block.
  3. For SAM DUE boards, data is stored in EEPROM-simulating DueFlashStorage.
  4. For Teensy 4.0 boards, EEPROM_SIZE is around 1 Kbytes.
  5. For STM32 boards, EEPROM_SIZE presence depends on the selected boards.
  6. For nRF52/RP2040 boards, data is stored in LittleFS/InternalFS.

3. To use personalized Config Portal AP SSID, Password and IP Address

// Set config portal SSID and Password
  Blynk.setConfigPortal("SAMD-WiFiNINA", "SAMD-WiFiNINAPass");
  // Set config portal IP address
  Blynk.setConfigPortalIP(IPAddress(192, 168, 200, 1));

4. To specify STA-mode Static IP address, Gateway, Subnet Mask, DNS server 1 and 2

  // From v1.0.0, select either one of these to set static IP + DNS
  Blynk.setSTAStaticIPConfig(IPAddress(192, 168, 2, 220), IPAddress(192, 168, 2, 1), IPAddress(255, 255, 255, 0));

Then replace Blynk.begin(...) with :

  1. Blynk.begin() to use default DHCP hostname SAMD-WiFiNINA or Mega-WiFiNINA

or to have a personalized hostname (RFC952-conformed,- 24 chars max,- only a..z A..Z 0..9 '-' and no '-' as last char)

  1. Blynk.begin("Personalized-HostName")

in your code. Keep Blynk.run() intact.

That's it.



HOWTO Use default Credentials and have them pre-loaded onto Config Portal

See this example and modify as necessary

bool LOAD_DEFAULT_CONFIG_DATA = true;

2. To use system default to load "blank" when there is no valid Credentials

bool LOAD_DEFAULT_CONFIG_DATA = false;

3. Example of Default Credentials

4. How to add dynamic parameters from sketch

  • To add custom parameters, just modify the example below
#if USE_BLYNK_WM

//#define USE_DYNAMIC_PARAMETERS      true
// USE_DYNAMIC_PARAMETERS defined in defined.h

/////////////// Start dynamic Credentials ///////////////

//Defined in <BlynkSimpleWiFiNINA_SAMD_WM.h>
/**************************************
  #define MAX_ID_LEN                5
  #define MAX_DISPLAY_NAME_LEN      16

  typedef struct
  {
  char id             [MAX_ID_LEN + 1];
  char displayName    [MAX_DISPLAY_NAME_LEN + 1];
  char *pdata;
  uint8_t maxlen;
  } MenuItem;
**************************************/

#if USE_DYNAMIC_PARAMETERS

#define MAX_MQTT_SERVER_LEN      34
char MQTT_Server  [MAX_MQTT_SERVER_LEN + 1]   = "default-mqtt-server";

#define MAX_MQTT_PORT_LEN        6
char MQTT_Port   [MAX_MQTT_PORT_LEN + 1]  = "1883";

#define MAX_MQTT_USERNAME_LEN      34
char MQTT_UserName  [MAX_MQTT_USERNAME_LEN + 1]   = "default-mqtt-username";

#define MAX_MQTT_PW_LEN        34
char MQTT_PW   [MAX_MQTT_PW_LEN + 1]  = "default-mqtt-password";

#define MAX_MQTT_SUBS_TOPIC_LEN      34
char MQTT_SubsTopic  [MAX_MQTT_SUBS_TOPIC_LEN + 1]   = "default-mqtt-SubTopic";

#define MAX_MQTT_PUB_TOPIC_LEN       34
char MQTT_PubTopic   [MAX_MQTT_PUB_TOPIC_LEN + 1]  = "default-mqtt-PubTopic";

MenuItem myMenuItems [] =
{
  { "mqtt", "MQTT Server",      MQTT_Server,      MAX_MQTT_SERVER_LEN },
  { "mqpt", "Port",             MQTT_Port,        MAX_MQTT_PORT_LEN   },
  { "user", "MQTT UserName",    MQTT_UserName,    MAX_MQTT_USERNAME_LEN },
  { "mqpw", "MQTT PWD",         MQTT_PW,          MAX_MQTT_PW_LEN },
  { "subs", "Subs Topics",      MQTT_SubsTopic,   MAX_MQTT_SUBS_TOPIC_LEN },
  { "pubs", "Pubs Topics",      MQTT_PubTopic,    MAX_MQTT_PUB_TOPIC_LEN },
};

uint16_t NUM_MENU_ITEMS = sizeof(myMenuItems) / sizeof(MenuItem);  //MenuItemSize;

#else

MenuItem myMenuItems [] = {};

uint16_t NUM_MENU_ITEMS = 0;

#endif    //USE_DYNAMIC_PARAMETERS

/////// // End dynamic Credentials ///////////

#endif      //USE_BLYNK_WM

5. If you don't need to add dynamic parameters

Use the following code snippet in sketch

#define USE_DYNAMIC_PARAMETERS     false

or

/////////////// Start dynamic Credentials ///////////////

MenuItem myMenuItems [] = {};

uint16_t NUM_MENU_ITEMS = 0;
/////// // End dynamic Credentials ///////////

6. To use custom HTML Style

const char NewCustomsStyle[] /*PROGMEM*/ = "<style>div,input{padding:5px;font-size:1em;}input{width:95%;}body{text-align: center;}\
button{background-color:blue;color:white;line-height:2.4rem;font-size:1.2rem;width:100%;}fieldset{border-radius:0.3rem;margin:0px;}</style>";

...

Blynk.setCustomsStyle(NewCustomsStyle);

7. To use custom Head Elements

Blynk.setCustomsHeadElement("<style>html{filter: invert(10%);}</style>");

8. To use CORS Header

Blynk.setCORSHeader("Your Access-Control-Allow-Origin");

9. To use and input only one set of WiFi SSID and PWD

9.1 If you need to use and input only one set of WiFi SSID/PWD

// Permit input only one set of WiFi SSID/PWD. The other can be "NULL or "blank"
// Default is false (if not defined) => must input 2 sets of SSID/PWD
#define REQUIRE_ONE_SET_SSID_PW       true

But it's always advisable to use and input both sets for reliability.

9.2 If you need to use both sets of WiFi SSID/PWD

// Permit input only one set of WiFi SSID/PWD. The other can be "NULL or "blank"
// Default is false (if not defined) => must input 2 sets of SSID/PWD
#define REQUIRE_ONE_SET_SSID_PW       false

10. To enable auto-scan of WiFi networks for selection in Configuration Portal

10.1 Enable auto-scan of WiFi networks for selection in Configuration Portal

#define SCAN_WIFI_NETWORKS                  true

The manual input of SSIDs is default enabled, so that users can input arbitrary SSID, not only from the scanned list. This is for the sample use-cases in which users can input the known SSIDs of another place, then send the boards to that place. The boards can connect to WiFi without users entering Config Portal to re-configure.

10.2 Disable manually input SSIDs

// To disable manually input SSID, only from a scanned SSID lists
#define MANUAL_SSID_INPUT_ALLOWED           false

This is for normal use-cases in which users can only select an SSID from a scanned list of SSIDs to avoid typo mistakes and/or security.

10.3 Select maximum number of SSIDs in the list

The maximum number of SSIDs in the list is seletable from 2 to 15. If invalid number of SSIDs is selected, the default number of 10 will be used.

// From 2-15
#define MAX_SSID_IN_LIST                    8


Why using this Blynk_WiFiNINA_WM with MultiWiFi-MultiBlynk features

You can see that the system automatically detects and connects to the available WiFi APs and/or Blynk Servers, whenever interruption happens. This feature is very useful for systems requiring high degree of reliability.

Moreover, this Blynk.begin() is not a blocking call, so you can use it for critical functions requiring in loop().

Anyway, this is better for projects using Blynk just for GUI (graphical user interface).

In operation, if WiFi or Blynk connection is lost, Blynk.run() will try reconnecting automatically. Therefore, Blynk.run() must be called in the loop() function. Don't use:

void loop()
{
  if (Blynk.connected())
     Blynk.run();
     
  ...
}

just

void loop()
{
  Blynk.run();
  ...
}


Important Notes for using Dynamic Parameters' ids

  1. These ids (such as "mqtt" in example) must be unique.

Please be noted that the following reserved names are already used in library:

"id"    for WiFi SSID
"pw"    for WiFi PW
"id1"   for WiFi1 SSID
"pw1"   for WiFi1 PW
"sv"    for Blynk Server
"tk"    for Blynk Token
"sv1"   for Blynk Server1
"tk1"   for Blynk Token1
"pt"    for Blynk Port
"nm"    for Board Name


Examples

  1. SAMD_WiFiNINA_WM
  2. Teensy_WiFiNINA_WM
  3. nRF52_WiFiNINA_WM
  4. SAM_DUE_WiFiNINA_WM
  5. STM32_WiFiNINA_WM
  6. Mega_WiFiNINA_WM
  7. UNO_WiFiNINA
  8. RP2040_WiFiNINA_WM New


So, how it works?

If it cannot connect to the Blynk server in 30 seconds, it will switch to Configuration Mode. You will see your built-in LED turned ON. In Configuration Mode, it starts a configurable access point, default called Teensy4_XXXXXX, SAMD_XXXXXX, NRF52_XXXXXX, DUE_XXXXXX,Mega_XXXXXX or STM32_XXXXXX. Connect to it using password MyTeensy4_XXXXXX, MySAMD_XXXXXX, MyNRF52_XXXXXX, MyDUE_XXXXXX, MyMega_XXXXXX or MySTM32_XXXXXX.

After you connected, please, go to http://192.168.4.1 or the AP IP you specified.

Enter your credentials : WiFi SSID/Password, Blynk Server, Port and Token, Board Name.

Then click Save.

After the board autorestarted, you will see your built-in LED turned OFF. That means, it connected to your Blynk server successfully.

You can see that the system automatically detects and connects to the available WiFi APs and/or Blynk Servers, whenever interruption happens. This feature is very useful for systems requiring high degree of reliability.

This library's Blynk.begin() is not a blocking call, so you can use it for critical functions requiring in loop(). Anyway, this is better for projects using Blynk just for GUI (graphical user interface).

In operation, if WiFi or Blynk connection is lost, Blynk.run() will try reconnecting automatically. Therefore, Blynk.run() must be called in the loop() function. Don't use:

void loop()
{
  if (Blynk.connected())
     Blynk.run();
     
  ...
}

just

void loop()
{
  Blynk.run();
  ...
}

Troubleshooting

If you get compilation errors, more often than not, you may need to install a newer version of the board's core, WiFiNINA_Generic, DoubleResetDetector_Generic, WiFiWebServer, etc.) libraries or this library version.

Sometimes, the library will only work if you update the boatd's core to the newer or older version because some function compatibility.

  2. Thanks to Miguel Wisintainer for initiating, inspriring, working with, developing, debugging and testing. Without that, support to nRF52, especially U-Blox B302 running as nRF52840, has never been started and finished. See u-blox nina b and ESP32-based U-BLOX NINA W102 running ENC28J60.
  3. Thanks to Thor Johnson to test, suggest and encourage to add those new features in Blynk_WM, such as Default Credentials/Dynamic Params, Configurable Config Portal Title, DRD. Now those features are speading fast into libraries having similar functionalities.
