Integrating this library in ESP-IDF

[sukesh-ak]

Subject of the issue

What are the changes required to make this library work with UART without Arduino dependency
Would like to use it with ESP-IDF based projects on ESP32

Your workbench

ESP32

Expected behavior

Use this library with ESP-IDF

Actual behavior

Tell us what happens instead

Hi Sukesh (@sukesh-ak ),

Sorry - you will need to figure that out for yourself. I have no experience with ESP-IDF.

The code is all written in standard C++. It should hopefully be as simple as replacing hwAvailable , hwPrint , hwWrite etc. with the ESP-IDF equivalent?

Best wishes,
Paul

Thank you.

Right now looking at this method of using official ubxlib port for ESP-IDF instead.

hi @PaulZC

Thought of sharing here, how this library can be used with ESP-IDF with detailed steps.
Write-up used this library as an example.

Please feel free to add this link to your readme if its useful.

Hi Sukesh (@sukesh-ak ),

This is great stuff - thank you!

I will pin this issue - so others can find it.

Thanks again,
Paul

Thank you for this amazing library @PaulZC 👍

I've successfully built this lib using Arduino as an ESP-IDF component with the following cmake:

file (GLOB SOURCES *.cpp)
idf_component_register(SRCS ${SOURCES}
                       INCLUDE_DIRS "."
                       REQUIRES arduino)
target_compile_options(${COMPONENT_LIB} PRIVATE -std=gnu++11)

I can simply add this simple fine (need to modify the paths) to support ESP-IDF.

@sukesh-ak didn't about such a lib, thanks. Have you tried its I2C API?

This was done few years ago.
I am working to avoid dependency with esp32-arduino core completely now. Will share once I get time to test it.

I don't have the hardware with I2C, so not tried yet. Maybe will try in near future with one of my custom hardware.
