You can use the rpc default config to setup everything correctly for RPCs:
$ export SDKCONFIG_DEFAULTS=$PROJECT_ROOT/examples/all-clusters-app/esp32/sdkconfig_m5stack_rpc.defaults $ rm sdkconfig $ idf.py fullclean
Alternatively, Enable RPCs in the build using menuconfig:
Enable the RPC library and Disable ENABLE_CHIP_SHELL
Component config → CHIP Core → General Options → Enable Pigweed PRC library Component config → CHIP Core → General Options → Disable CHIP Shell
Ensure the UART is correctly configured for your board, for m5stack:
PW RPC Debug channel → UART port number → 0 PW RPC Debug channel → UART communication speed → 115200 PW RPC Debug channel → UART RXD pin number → 3 PW RPC Debug channel → UART TXD pin number → 1
After configuring you can build and flash normally:
$ idf.py build $ idf.py flash
After flashing a build with RPCs enabled you can use the rpc console to send commands to the device.
Build or install the rpc console
Start the console
chip-console --device /dev/ttyUSB0
From within the console you can then invoke rpcs:
Configure WiFi
rpcs.chip.rpc.WiFi.Connect(ssid=b"MySSID", secret=b"MyPASSWORD") rpcs.chip.rpc.WiFi.GetIP6Address()
Control Lighting
rpcs.chip.rpc.Lighting.Get() rpcs.chip.rpc.Lighting.Set(on=True, level=128, color=protos.chip.rpc.LightingColor(hue=5, saturation=5))
Control Lock
rpcs.chip.rpc.Locking.Get() rpcs.chip.rpc.Locking.Set(locked=True)
OTA Requestor
rpcs.chip.rpc.Device.TriggerOta()
Device tracing is available to analyze the device performance. To turn on tracing, build with RPC enabled.
Obtain tracing json file.
