Almost all of the substantial features and improvements in this release are contributions from @cmidgley. Big thanks to him!
New Features
- ( #224 ) Added support for a status LED indicating WiFi connectivity and receipt/transmission of RF packets.
- ( #188 ) Added support for
device_id,device_type, andgroup_idstate fields. When enabled, these fields will be included in MQTT state updates. - Added a "Night Mode" button in the UI.
- Added a compile flag for enabling debugging messages related to state management.
- Added a setting which, if enabled, switches bulbs into the appropriate mode when issuing commands that only work in that mode.
Improvements
- Switch to upstream HTTP library rather than using a local version with patches. Upstream has since patched the bugs.
- Thoughtful comments added to any code that @cmidgley interacted with. :)
Bug Fixes
- Build now works reliably on Windows.
- ( #234 ) The
+character can now be used in passwords. - ( #232, #171 ) Do not apply internal state changes when bulbs are known to be in a mode that won't change state (i.e., off/night mode).
- ( #170 ) Fixed bug where using any command that resulted in several RF packets would eventually result in the ESP being unusable.
