Write a plugin for DWC- solved using BtnCmd.

[MintyTrebor]

@moth4017 You will need to use the built in object model plugin to see global variables. Just enable it in DWC, you can then use it to view global.xxxxx variables.

Follow the steps I previously posted, and watch for changes in the OM plugin. You can just type the http command into a browser to check your variable is setup and changes are visable, before you test your esp code.

@moth4017 Your choices are to use the object model plugin to see the variables eg:

or use BtnCmd to display them eg:

Read the BtnCmd wiki for instructions on how to install & use it.

Click the green "create & edit layouts" button
Click the "add new panel" button
Select object model panel, and click enter settings

@moth4017 will you share your ESP code once its working?

[moth4017]

@jay_s_uk
Hi yes it will be all shared , plus we will also put in the acknowledgements and web links etc to all the other contributors

[MintyTrebor]

@moth4017 your welcome

[MintyTrebor]

@moth4017 If you want to - there is an import/export layout feature in BtnCmd, so you can include your BtnCmd layout with the esp code.
