WiFi Manager

WiFi Manager for ESP32 using MicroPython. It might work in any other board since it only uses standard MicroPython libraries, but that's not tested.

How It Works

• When your device starts up, it will try to connect to a previously saved wifi.
• If there is no saved network or if it fails to connect, it will start an access point;
• By connecting to the access point and going to the address 192.168.4.1 you be able to find your network and input the credentials;
• It will try to connect to the desired network, and if it's successful, it will save the credentials for future usage;
• Be aware that the wifi credentials will be saved in a plain text file, and this can be a security fault depending on your application;

Installation and Usage

I use justfile to upload the scripts to a target device:

$ just upload

You may want to use mount of mpremote for test or debugging:

$ just mount_and_run

Methods

.connect()

Tries to connect to a network and if it doesn't work start the configuration portal.

.disconnect()

Disconnect from network.

.is_connected()

Returns True if it's connected and False if it's not. It's the simpler way to test the connection inside your code.

.get_address()

Returns a tuple with the network interface parameters: IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS server.

Notes

• Do not use this library with other ones that works directly with the network interface, since it might have conflicts;
