@MakeItYourself85 Feel free to ping me (@brentru) when you're ready for a review!

@brentru Ready for review

[brentru]

@MakeItYourself85 Have you started step 2 (building WipperSnapper) and step 3 (modifying wippersnapper) for this board as described here: https://learn.adafruit.com/how-to-add-a-new-board-to-wippersnapper/build-wippersnapper-with-platformio?

[MakeItYourself85]

@brentru I was able to successfully build one of the existing projects (featheresp32s2) with platformio. However, the Unexpected Maker FeatherS2 board was not yet supported so I tried updating the platformio.ini file as follows:

but it looks like Wippersnapper_Boards.h needed some additional information:

I went into Wippersnapper_Boards.h to add the new board information there and that seems to have gotten me farther along in the build process:

Now I'm stuck on some issues in the network_interfaces/Wippersnapper_ESP32.h file which I'm going to need some help with:

[brentru]

Thanks for the detailed log! Could you copy and paste the platformio.ini entry below so I can try compiling on my end?

[MakeItYourself85]

; Unexpected Maker FeatherS2
[env:um_feathers2]
platform = espressif32
board = um_feathers2
build_flags = -DARDUINO_UNEXPECTEDMAKER_FEATHERS2
extra_scripts = pre:rename_usb_config.py
upload_port = COM4

@brentru : Sorry, I forgot to mention you on this message when I posted it last week

@MakeItYourself85 With two minor changes, I was able to build (untested as I don't have hardware for this:)

Environment    Status    Duration
-------------  --------  ------------
um_feathers2   SUCCESS   00:00:19.844

Here are the two changes I made which differed from your build:

Within WipperSnapper_FS.cpp, I added an inclusion for the FeatherS2:

    defined(ARDUINO_ADAFRUIT_QTPY_ESP32S3_N4R2) || \
    defined(ARDUINO_UNEXPECTEDMAKER_FEATHERS2)

In platformio.ini, I used extends to extend the common ESP32 environment:

; Unexpected Maker FeatherS2
[env:um_feathers2]
extends = common:esp32
board = um_feathers2
build_flags = -DARDUINO_UNEXPECTEDMAKER_FEATHERS2
extra_scripts = pre:rename_usb_config.py
upload_port = COM4

Please try applying these two changes and compiling them. It should be OK!

[MakeItYourself85]

Yep, making those two changes worked. I was able to build and upload to the board successfully. Here's the output from the Upload process:

Seems like something broke when I was updating the naming conventions per https://learn.adafruit.com/how-to-add-a-new-board-to-wippersnapper/modifying-firmware. I'll keep working on it before I'm ready for another review.

@MakeItYourself85 it looks like your giving it another push, good work!
I work with Brent and I'm mostly around this long weekend (family visiting) so shout on the afafruit discord or here if you want a hand.

You'll need a matching branch in the Wippersnapper Arduino firmware repo too, mainly the boards file needs updating to have your entry too. Can't really test this until Wednesday when Brent returns, but I'll chat with Loren about how we can support in-development boards better on Tuesday. It's good timing as we plan to add some new in-development boards soon too!
For now if you're desperate you could set your board id in the code to return the afafruit S2 feather and then you'd see it compile and come online at least.
