BruControl: Adding unsupported devices

[hmbrw4life]

FYI that does not work out of the gate. It will not connect to wifi.
If I define:
#ifndef STASSID
#define STASSID "SSID"
#define STAPSK "PASSWORD"

const char* ssid = STASSID;
const char* password = STAPSK;

It then works, so it appears something is up.

I have 3 devices running this same code for the wifi and don't have any issues connecting. Must be something specific to your wifi network.

My guess is the code copy/paste. When troubleshooting I tried your Hop dropper code and it errored somewhere (not wifi) as well.

I wrote an Arduino sketch for the nodeMCU that can be used to enable unsupported interfaces/devices in BruControl. Hopefully other people out there can make some use of it as well.

That is awesome! I have a fan that I want to turn on when approaching boil. I was thinking of using a NodeMCU for that purpose, this would make it much easier!

I don't want to deter you from using the pathway in this thread, but your goal can be tackled directly in BC via scripting.

Yes, I thought about it the day after replying
