############ ESP Insights ############ About ----- ESP Insights is a remote diagnostics solution that allows users to remotely monitor the health of ESP devices in the field. Developers normally prefer debugging issues by physically probing them using gdb or observing the logs. This surely helps debug issues, but there are often cases wherein issues are seen only in specific environments under specific conditions. Even things like casings and placement of the product can affect the behaviour. A few examples are - Wi-Fi disconnections for a smart switch concealed in a wall. - Smart speakers crashing during some specific usage pattern. - Appliance frequently rebooting due to power supply issues. Additional information about ESP Insights can be found `here <https://insights.espressif.com/>`__. ESP Insights Agent API ---------------------- Insights.begin ************** This initializes the ESP Insights agent. .. code-block:: arduino bool begin(const char *auth_key, const char *node_id = NULL, uint32_t log_type = 0xFFFFFFFF, bool alloc_ext_ram = false); * ``auth_key`` Auth key generated using Insights dashboard * ``log_type`` Type of logs to be captured (value can be a mask of ESP_DIAG_LOG_TYPE_ERROR, ESP_DIAG_LOG_TYPE_WARNING and ESP_DIAG_LOG_TYPE_EVENT) This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.send ************* Read insights data from buffers and send it to the cloud. Call to this function is asynchronous, it may take some time to send the data. .. code-block:: arduino bool sendData() This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.end ************ Deinitialize ESP Insights. .. code-block:: arduino void end(); Insights.disable **************** Disable ESP Insights. .. code-block:: arduino void disable(); ESP Insights Metrics API ------------------------ `metrics` object of `Insights` class expose API's for using metrics. Insights.metrics.addX ********************* Register a metric of type X, where X is one of: Bool, Int, Uint, Float, String, IPv4 or MAC .. code-block:: arduino bool addX(const char *tag, const char *key, const char *label, const char *path); * ``tag`` : Tag of metrics * ``key`` : Unique key for the metrics * ``label`` : Label for the metrics * ``path`` : Hierarchical path for key, must be separated by '.' for more than one level This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.metrics.remove *********************** Unregister a diagnostics metrics .. code-block:: arduino bool remove(const char *key); * ``key`` : Key for the metrics This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.metrics.removeAll ************************** Unregister all previously registered metrics .. code-block:: arduino bool removeAll(); This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.metrics.setX ********************* Add metrics of type X to storage, where X is one of: Bool, Int, Uint, Float, String, IPv4 or MAC .. code-block:: arduino bool setX(const char *key, const void val); * ``key`` : Key of metrics * ``val`` : Value of metrics This function will return 1. `ESP_OK` : On success 2. Error in case of failure Insights.metrics.dumpHeap ************************* Dumps the heap metrics and prints them to the console. This API collects and reports metrics value at any give point in time. .. code-block:: arduino bool dumpHeap(); This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.metrics.dumpWiFi ************************* Dumps the wifi metrics and prints them to the console. This API can be used to collect wifi metrics at any given point in time. .. code-block:: arduino bool dumpWiFi(); This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.metrics.setHeapPeriod ****************************** Reset the periodic interval By default, heap metrics are collected every 30 seconds, this function can be used to change the interval. If the interval is set to 0, heap metrics collection disabled. .. code-block:: arduino void setHeapPeriod(uint32_t period); * ``period`` : Period interval in seconds Insights.metrics.setWiFiPeriod ****************************** Reset the periodic interval By default, wifi metrics are collected every 30 seconds, this function can be used to change the interval. If the interval is set to 0, wifi metrics collection disabled. .. code-block:: arduino void setHeapPeriod(uint32_t period); * ``period`` : Period interval in seconds ESP Insights Variables API -------------------------- `variables` object of `Insights` class expose API's for using variables. Insights.variables.addX *********************** Register a variable of type X, where X is one of: Bool, Int, Uint, Float, String, IPv4 or MAC .. code-block:: arduino bool addX(const char *tag, const char *key, const char *label, const char *path); * ``tag`` : Tag of variable * ``key`` : Unique key for the variable * ``label`` : Label for the variable * ``path`` : Hierarchical path for key, must be separated by '.' for more than one level This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.variables.remove ************************* Unregister a diagnostics variable .. code-block:: arduino bool remove(const char *key); * ``key`` : Key for the variable This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.variables.removeAll **************************** Unregister all previously registered variables .. code-block:: arduino bool unregisterAll(); This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Insights.variables.setX *********************** Add variable of type X to storage, where X is one of: Bool, Int, Uint, Float, String, IPv4 or MAC .. code-block:: arduino bool setX(const char *key, const void val); * ``key`` : Key of metrics * ``val`` : Value of metrics This function will return 1. true : On success 2. false in case of failure Example ------- To get started with Insights, you can try: .. literalinclude:: ../../../libraries/Insights/examples/MinimalDiagnostics/MinimalDiagnostics.ino :language: arduino
