ESP8266 module name

In any tutorial of using ESP8266 written that the module should be called like that

 var wifi = require("Wifi");

But there is no Wifi.js in http://www.espruino.com/modules directory. And the terminal callback

=undefined

confirms that

I assume that we need ESP8266WiFi.js, but the module crashes with

WARNING: Parent must be an object - not a String, Integer, etc.

^

trying to complete a simple task

var wifi = require("ESP8266WiFi");

wifi.connect ("mySSID", {password:"myPWD"}, function (){
console.log ("Connected to ap");
}
);

/*
wifi.setIP ({ip:"192.168.1.50", gw:"192.168.1.1", netmask:"255.155.255.0"}, function (){
console.log ("Ip set");
}
);*/

Function wifi.setIP is defined in reference but there is no such function in module.
What I`m doing wrong?

Hi @Questdoino,

Wifi and ESP8266 are internal modules.

Please check ESP8266_WifiUsage to figure out how to use the module Wifi on ESPs.

Are you using the ESP8266 to provide WiFi to another device running Espruino, or are you running Espruino on the ESP8266 itself?

I`m trying to use it itself

Ok, start from the beginning. At last flashed boot 1.6 and 1.91 firmware but this code doesn`t work

var wifi = require("Wifi");

console.log ("START");

wifi.connect ("mySSID", {password:"myPWD"}, function (){
console.log ("Connected to ap");
}
);


wifi.setIP ({ip:"192.168.1.50", gw:"192.168.1.1", netmask:"255.155.255.0"}, function (){
console.log ("Ip set");
}
);

ESP stays in default AP mode, doesnt connect to "mySSID" AP and cant find wifi.setIP function

The IDE warns that Wifi module not found. Where is it located?

There is no setip function for the esp8266 wifi.

var wifi = require("Wifi");
wifi.connect("my-ssid", {password:"my-pwd"}, function(err){
  console.log("connected? err=", err, "info=", wifi.getIP());
});

Use the code from the example page - the wifi ip will get echoed to the console..

Module Wifi not found

In reference there is setIP function

Good luck.

That ```setIP()``` function shouldn't be in the docs - it isn't implemented.

Your module not found message is not unusual. To test loaded, load the above code in the IDE from right hand side. Then in left hand side key:

wifi.getStatus();```

You should get a return from that to indicate module was found and loaded and then can proceed to connect and subsequently save your wifi settings for easy connect at boot.

As I see, ESP8266 with Espruino onboard cant work in station mode without DHCP on AP enabled? (((

You have to wait until the next release, or fetch a travis build or build the firmware by your own.

There have been added two functions to ESP8266 Wifi: setAPIP() and setIP() with PR #1033 and #1034.

If I follow, you mean you can't consistently find it? Well you can jump on your router and reserve the IP address? That's what I do. Next time it boots you'll know its IP which is great for servers and connecting over Telnet.

Ah so setIP() is coming. That explains it!

Yep and setAPIP() too :)
