This is a project to use be able with a real pickaxe to mine in minecraft. It is composed of an end device that will send request to a serveur whenever a bump is detected.
- ESP32 S2 mini
- endstop switch
- 3.7V battery
- A computer to run the game and the server
To run the server you need to have python and pip installed https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/
pip install flask
pip install pyautogui
python3 serveur.py
The serveur code will simulate a left-click for 1 second whenever there is a get request that is made at http://:5000/click
You can find your local by looking at your IPV4 with ipconfig after opening a windows cmd or any other terminal
In the code for the ESP32 S2, you need to change the values for the SSID, the Password and the localip address, Then you need to flash the code, I used platformIo but you can use whatever you want as long as you have these library included:
WIFI.h
HTTPClient.h
Make S2 boards into Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU) mode. Hold on Button 0 Press Button Reset Release Button 0 When you hear the prompt tone on usb reconnection
For more info about the ESP32 S2: https://www.wemos.cc/en/latest/s2/s2_mini.html
Then connect the 3 wires of your endstop switch: One on the ground for a reference of 0 when the switch is not pressed (or else you will have inconsistent values), One on the 3.3V for when the switch is pressed One on the A1 pin 1 for the input signal.
For the battery i recommend to have an easy system to plug -and not to directly solder the ground to the ground and the red wire to the Vbus- for easy charging.
