About The Project

Tweakly allows you to create dynamic code, using programming methods that are normally difficult to implement, allowing the user to reduce the writing of the code as much as possible to allow the latter to concentrate on the project to be implemented.

Getting Started

To use Tweakly you only need the Arduino IDE and one of the boards that work with it.

In development testing Tweakly was tested on:

  • Arduino Uno
  • Attiny85
  • ESP8266
  • ESP32
  • SAMD21 (Arduino MRK Wi-Fi 1010 and Arduino Nano 33 IoT)

Documentation

The Tweakly documentation is under development, it will be available in the coming months in Italian and English, in the meantime make use of the included examples and wait patiently :-)

For advanced examples you can visit the dedicated repository : https://github.com/filoconnesso/tweakly-examples

Installation

  1. From Arduino CLI
    arduino-cli lib search Tweakly
    arduino-cli lib install Tweakly
  2. From IDE Search "Tweakly" from Sketch->#include library->Library Manager

Usage

Tweakly bases its operation on millis() and allows you to create non-blocking code for your board.

It is essential to know that to work correctly you need to use methods that do not block the execution of your code, the main libraries available for the sensors may have delays inside them, but after the tests done in the development phase we have could verify that most of the libraries are tweakly-compatible.

Tweakly takes pin status into account with a built-in pin manager, so use that to initialize your pins:

Pad led(13);

With Tweaky's pin manager you can read and write values ​​on all initialized pins and give them a name as you like, making your life a lot easier!

led.write(1);
led.read(); //1

If you want to create non-blocking code, rely on TickTimers.

TickTimer blinker;

Initialize it in setup() with:

blinker.attach(1000, [] { 
 led.toggle(); 
});

And your led will start blinking without blocking your code! Is not it fantastic ?

For more features, please see the Examples Folder

Tricks

Use a fast baud rate to not affect the performance of your code:

Serial.begin(115200);

Use stringAssembler to assemble strings and format a dataset together:

int sensor_value;
char sensor_name;

...

String message = stringAssembler("your sensor %s has read %d C° \n", sensor_name, sensor_value);

Use Echo Stream for print to file and Serial :

Echo printer;
Serial.begin(115200);

printer.attach(&Serial);
printer.print("Hello, Friend \n");

Demo

Watch the video

In this video the first green LED flashes with at 250ms timer, the red LED flashes at 1000ms and the blue LED at 1500ms. The last two red LEDs have a pwm control.

Touch button # 3 is the play button, Touchpad # 2 freezes the melody and button # 1 pauses it.

Tweakly's new "Clock" component was used for the clock, which allows you to create virtual clocks and manage them separately.

All the code is handled by various TickTimers that guarantee non-blocking execution of everything.
