A porting effort to the ESP-IDF framework for the e-Radionica InkPlate software that can be find [here](https://github.com/e-radionicacom/Inkplate-Arduino-library).
Look in the `examples` folder for ready-made applications. This library is conform to the PlatformIO IDE extension. All examples can be compiled using PlatformIO.
An InkPlate application requires some functionalities to be properly set up within the ESP-IDF. The following elements have been done for this project and can be used as a reference for other projects:
- **PSRAM memory management**: The PSRAM is an extension to the ESP32 memory that offers 4MB+4MB of additional RAM. The first 4MB is readily available to integrate into the dynamic memory allocation of the ESP-IDF SDK. To do so, some parameters located in the `sdkconfig` file must be set accordingly. This must be done using the menuconfig application that is part of the ESP-IDF. The following command will launch the application (the current folder must be the main folder of EPub-InkPlate):
```
$ idf.py menuconfig
```
The application will show a list of configuration aspects. To configure PSRAM:
- **FAT Filesystem Support**: If the application requires the usage of the micro SD card. This card must be formatted on a computer (Linux or Windows) with a FAT 32 partition. The InkPlate6Ctrl class requires this in its current configuration. The following parameters must be adjusted in `sdkconfig`:
- Select `Number of simultaneously open files protected by lock function` > `5`
- Select `Prefer external RAM when allocating FATFS buffer`
- **Flash memory partitioning (optional)**: the file `partitions.csv` contains the table of partitions definition for the 4MB flash memory, required to support the largest applications size in an OTA context. The partitions OTA_0 and OTA_1 have been set to be 1.3MB in size. In the `platformio.ini` file, the line `board_build.partitions=...` is directing the use of these partitions configuration.
