OTAWebUpdate is done with a web browser that can be useful in the following typical scenarios:
3
+
- Once the application developed and loading directly from Arduino IDE is inconvenient or not possible
4
+
- after deployment if user is unable to expose Firmware for OTA from external update server
5
+
- provide updates after deployment to small quantity of modules when setting an update server is not practicable
6
+
7
+
## Requirements
8
+
- The ESP and the computer must be connected to the same network
9
+
10
+
## Implementation
11
+
The sample implementation has been done using:
12
+
- example sketch OTAWebUpdater.ino
13
+
- ESP32 (Dev Module)
14
+
15
+
You can use another module also if it meets Flash chip size of the sketch
16
+
17
+
1-Before you begin, please make sure that you have the following software installed:
18
+
- Arduino IDE
19
+
- Host software depending on O/S you use:
20
+
- Avahi http://avahi.org/ for Linux
21
+
- Bonjour http://www.apple.com/support/bonjour/ for Windows
22
+
- Mac OSX and iOS - support is already built in / no any extra s/w is required
23
+
24
+
Prepare the sketch and configuration for initial upload with a serial port
25
+
- Start Arduino IDE and load sketch OTAWebUpdater.ino available under File > Examples > OTAWebUpdater.ino
26
+
- Update ssid and pass in the sketch so the module can join your Wi-Fi network
27
+
- Open File > Preferences, look for “Show verbose output during:” and check out “compilation” option
28
+
29
+

30
+
31
+
- Upload sketch (Ctrl+U)
32
+
- Now open web browser and enter the url, i.e. http://esp32.local. Once entered, browser should display a form
33
+
34
+

35
+
36
+
> username= admin
37
+
38
+
> password= admin
39
+
40
+
**Note**-*If entering “http://ESP32.local” does not work, try replacing “ESP32” with module’s IP address.This workaround is useful in case the host software installed does not work*.
41
+
42
+
Now click on Login button and browser will display a upload form
43
+
44
+

45
+
46
+
For Uploading the New Firmware you need to provide the Binary File of your Code.
47
+
48
+
Exporting Binary file of the Firmware (Code)
49
+
- Open up the Arduino IDE
50
+
- Open up the Code, for Exporting up Binary file
51
+
- Now go to Sketch > export compiled Binary
52
+

53
+
54
+
- Binary file is exported to the same Directory where your code is present
55
+
56
+
Once you are comfortable with this procedure go ahead and modify OTAWebUpdater.ino sketch to print some additional messages, compile it, Export new binary file and upload it using web browser to see entered changes on a Serial Monitor
