From e55fe71145b91d71ccf87953b80c2e60f9f117ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2026 16:24:57 -0800 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] feat(extensions): implement partition-based extension system v1 Add complete extension system for CrossPoint Reader with the following components: Extension Apps (src/apps/hello-world/): - HelloWorldActivity with e-ink display support - Manual partition swap return mechanism (NOT rollback - bootloader disabled) - RTC boot counter watchdog (auto-return after 3 failed boots) - Uses esp_ota_set_boot_partition() + esp_restart() for safe return AppLoader Utility (src/extension/): - scanApps() - reads /.crosspoint/apps/*/app.json manifests - parseManifest() - JSON parsing with ArduinoJson - flashApp() - OTA flashing with ESP-IDF APIs - Safety checks: battery >20%, magic byte 0xE9, partition validation - Progress callback support for UI updates AppsActivity UI (src/activities/apps/): - List apps from SD card with selection highlight - Progress bar during flashing operation - Button hints (Back, Launch, Up, Down) - Error handling for missing/corrupt files HomeActivity Integration: - Added 'Apps' menu item after File Transfer - onGoToApps() callback for navigation - Proper activity lifecycle management Documentation: - TESTING_GUIDE.md - Comprehensive testing procedures - IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md - Technical overview Safety Features: - Battery check before flashing (>20%) - Magic byte validation (0xE9) - Partition size validation - RTC watchdog prevents soft-brick - Dynamic partition APIs (no hardcoded indices) Build: - Added [env:hello-world] to platformio.ini - src_filter excludes main CrossPoint sources - Standalone extension builds to firmware.bin Closes extension system Phase 1 implementation. --- IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md | 254 ++++++++++++++++ TESTING_GUIDE.md | 307 ++++++++++++++++++++ platformio.ini | 13 + src/activities/apps/AppsActivity.cpp | 197 +++++++++++++ src/activities/apps/AppsActivity.h | 36 +++ src/activities/home/HomeActivity.cpp | 5 +- src/activities/home/HomeActivity.h | 6 +- src/apps/hello-world/HelloWorldActivity.cpp | 66 +++++ src/apps/hello-world/HelloWorldActivity.h | 21 ++ src/apps/hello-world/main.cpp | 32 ++ src/extension/AppLoader.cpp | 299 +++++++++++++++++++ src/extension/AppLoader.h | 124 ++++++++ src/main.cpp | 8 +- 13 files changed, 1364 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) create mode 100644 IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md create mode 100644 TESTING_GUIDE.md create mode 100644 src/activities/apps/AppsActivity.cpp create mode 100644 src/activities/apps/AppsActivity.h create mode 100644 src/apps/hello-world/HelloWorldActivity.cpp create mode 100644 src/apps/hello-world/HelloWorldActivity.h create mode 100644 src/apps/hello-world/main.cpp create mode 100644 src/extension/AppLoader.cpp create mode 100644 src/extension/AppLoader.h diff --git a/IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md b/IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e73b8176 --- /dev/null +++ b/IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md @@ -0,0 +1,254 @@ +# Extension System Implementation Summary + +## ✅ COMPLETED IMPLEMENTATION + +### All 6 Core Tasks Complete + +| Task | Description | Status | +|------|-------------|--------| +| **Task 1** | Hello World Extension | ✅ Complete | +| **Task 2** | Return Mechanism (RTC watchdog) | ✅ Complete | +| **Task 3** | AppLoader Utility | ✅ Complete | +| **Task 4** | App Flashing Logic | ✅ Complete | +| **Task 5** | AppsActivity UI | ✅ Complete | +| **Task 6** | HomeActivity Integration | ✅ Complete | + +--- + +## 📁 Files Created/Modified + +### New Files (Extension System) +``` +src/ +├── apps/ +│ └── hello-world/ +│ ├── HelloWorldActivity.h +│ ├── HelloWorldActivity.cpp +│ └── main.cpp +├── extension/ +│ ├── AppLoader.h +│ └── AppLoader.cpp +└── activities/ + └── apps/ + ├── AppsActivity.h + └── AppsActivity.cpp +``` + +### Modified Files +``` +platformio.ini - Added [env:hello-world] +src/main.cpp - Added onGoToApps callback +src/activities/home/HomeActivity.h - Added onAppsOpen callback +``` + +--- + +## 🔧 Build Instructions + +### Build Main Firmware +```bash +pio run +# Output: .pio/build/default/firmware.bin +``` + +### Build Hello World Extension +```bash +pio run -e hello-world +# Output: .pio/build/hello-world/firmware.bin +``` + +### Upload to Device +```bash +# Main firmware +pio run -t upload + +# Or Hello World directly +pio run -e hello-world -t upload +``` + +### Monitor Serial Output +```bash +pio device monitor -b 115200 +``` + +--- + +## 🎯 Key Features Implemented + +### 1.
