* Add a new "connection_mode" argument to http_request. This can be TLS_MODE or TCP_MODE
* Fix a bug where assumptions about json parsing don't hold up
* Check for TCP_STATE_CLOSED and bail early from connect_to_server
This slightly reckless extension to ppwhttp adds support for wildcard routes, eg:
/get_led/<int:index>
Which will serve URLs in the form:
/get_led/10
/get_led/22
etc.
The wildcard includes <type:key>, attempting to match the behaviour of Flask.
Only type "int" is supported currently.
/get_led/<index> - would set data["index"] to a string
/get_led/<int:index> - would attempt to parse the URL part to an int, and would not serve eg: /get_led/hi
See plasma_ws2812_http.py for example usage.
Uses the correct? default Content-Type and encoding for HTTP.
Parses the Content-Type header *before* decoding the content body.
Handles JSON type gracefully.
Decodes the response body accoding to the encoding header.
This is a bit of a fudge, and was only tested against the Cheerlights API.
Detects JSON content type, parses out the content length and truncates the response body to length.
Should probably do this *before* decoding from utf-8.
Updates cheerlights.py API example to support XML, JSON and TEXT endpoints.
Creates a new ppwhttp library to hide the implementation detail of HTTP clients/servers from the examples.
Adds a new example - plasma_ws2812_http.py - showing how to expand rgb_http.py to use a WS2812 pixel strip.
Adds "secrets.py" and moves WIFI connection information there. ppwhttp will throw an error if it's missing.
Includes "WS2812" and "APA102" modules, wrapping the libraries.
Uses a destructor to clean up the LED strip and resources when MicroPython is stopped/restarted.
As discussed on https://forums.pimoroni.com/t/pico-wireless-pack-fetching-data-from-web/17215/ the cheerlights.py example was stalling on the first HTTP request.
I have added a timeout in this case, so the code will stop waiting and retry after the 60second polling wait period. Users report this does the trick!
Removes i2c_inst_t from constructors since it's ignored, and updated the Python bindings not to supply this argument. Instance is inferred from the supplied pins.
