This is a small library for the ESP32 platform, with the intent of replacing the WiFiMulti class with an asynchronous verson.

If using PlatformIO, simply use the library manager, or add

gulinux/AsyncWiFiMulti@^0.1.0

to the lib_deps section of your project.

You can just install this library using the builtin library manager, or by going to the releases page, downloading the zip fileof the version you want to install, and unzipping it in your Arduino/libraries folder. See the arduino docs for more details.

    bool addAP(const char* ssid, const char *passphrase = nullptr);

Adds an access point to the configuration. Returns true if adding was successful, false if the AP SSID/passphrase are not valid, or if the AP is already present.

    bool start();

This is the main entry point for starting AsyncWiFiMulti. Returns true if startup was successful, false if already running. AsyncWiFiMulti will:

• Switch to running state.
• Scan for available access points.
• Filter for the configured access points, and sort them by signal strenght.
• Try to connect to access points sequentially, from the strongest to the weakest, moving to the next when connection fails.
• If any connection was successful:
  • Call OnConnected if the callback was set
  • set running state to false.
• If no connection was successful:
  • Call OnDisconnected if the callback was set
  • set running state to false.

OnConnected and OnFailure will only be called when running state is true. There is a third callback available OnDisconnected. This will only be called if running is false, and will allow you to implemet your reconnection logic if necessary.

AsyncWiFiMulti has no retry policy by default, but you can easily use the OnDisconnected and OnFailure callbacks to call the start method again.

    using OnConnected = std::function<void(const ApSettings&)>;
    using OnFailure = std::function<void()>;
    using OnDisconnected = std::function<void(const char *ssid, uint8_t disconnectionReason)>;

    void onConnected(OnConnected callback);
    void onFailure(OnFailure callback);
    void onDisconnected(OnDisconnected callback);

Please look at the test file for a working example on how to use the class.

You can also launch tests using platformio using the pio test command. You only need to provide an aps_configuration.h file filled with your APs credentials.

onConnected and onFailure will only be called if AsyncWiFiMulti is currently in running state. running will be set to true after calling start, and will be set to false after either a successful connection, or a failure.
