.. GravityMon documentation master file, created by

You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least
contain the root `toctree` directive.
Welcome to GravityMon's documentation!
######################################
.. note::
Preliminary documentation. This is work in progress.
GravityMon is a replacement firmare for the iSpindle hardware. It's used to measure gravity in beer and show the progress
of fermentation.
For more information on this topic and function please visit https://www.ispindel.de.
I started GravityMon because i like to create software and wanted to do some low level programming. I had done a few
projects based on esp8266 and also started to brew beer so this combination was quite natural.
The hardware design comes from the fantastic iSpindle project so that is not covered in this documentation.
My approach to this software is a little different from that the original ispindle firmware. The github repository can
be found here; https://github.com/mp-se/gravitymon
.. note::
This software is in the early stages even though its more than one year old so if you find issues, please
open a ticket on github.
I dont take responsibility for any errors that can cause problems with the use. I have tested v0.4 on 5+ brews
over the last 6 months without any issues.
The main differences:
---------------------
* Operates in two modes `gravity monitoring` and `configuration mode`
* Send data to multiple endpoints when pushing data.
* Automatic temperature adjustment of gravity reading
* OTA support from local webserver
* Build in function to create gravity formulas (*New in v0.5*)
There are also a experimental features such as:
* Using the temperature sensor in gyro instead of DS18B20 (faster)
* Performance measurements (used to optimise code)
**For a complete breakdown see the functionallity section.**

----------
This software uses the following libraries and without these this would have been much more difficult to acheive:
* https://github.com/jrowberg/i2cdevlib.git
This library contains the basic code to interact with the gyro + many more chips.
* https://github.com/codeplea/tinyexpr
Proccess the gravity formula and calculate the gravity and various corrections.
* https://github.com/graphitemaster/incbin
Include binary files into the code, used to service html files.
* https://github.com/khoih-prog/ESP_DoubleResetDetector
Can detect if the reset button is pressed twice, is used to enter WIFI config mode.
* https://github.com/tzapu/WiFiManager
Configure wifi settings.
* https://github.com/thijse/Arduino-Log
Logging library for handling different loglevels and configure what sent over the serial.
* https://github.com/bblanchon/ArduinoJson
Json parser/creator used in configuration files and API's
* https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/OneWire
Communication library used for interacting with temperature sensor.
