<![CDATA[ATOM Matrix - basic working Access Point (micropython)]]>Thought people might be interested in a simple working example of an Access Point web server on the ATOM Matrix:
(Wasn't sure if this was the correct place to post ...)

Based on:
https://randomnerdtutorials.com/esp32-esp8266-micropython-web-server/
http://community.m5stack.com/topic/1262/m5stack-basic-grey-as-wifi-ap

Known Issues/Bugs:
Very flaky - crashes lots .. Seeing micropython REPL error:
File "<string>", line 77, in <module>
OSError: [Errno 104] ECONNRESET
Atom dies.... Needs hard reset.

Not sure why only momentary display Green/Red, looks like constant socket accepts..
Need to investigate the unused addr return from socket accept, is this useful?
Response Initial state affected by loaded page in browser?

Anyway, all constructive comments welcome.

One for m5stack: UIFlow-Desktop V1.4.5 is awful, can't even save my micropython code, please, please fix/update.

How do I get the listing to display as code like in other posts? DONE - see below!

  1. Pressing </> Python:
    0_1586899662275_d5e1d27a-fb3e-4cf6-a804-ccb943374a93-image.png

At any time wipes out any code you have in the edit window, why?

  1. Cannot save code, also two methods available to save:
    0_1586899836134_4ebd7d13-b7fd-46f2-b82b-f235d7d1d99c-image.png

Or
0_1586899862312_ae0ea337-c3c8-4c38-812b-817cba96a19a-image.png

Using either method saves a main.m5f file (Note, not a main.py), opening the main.m5f results in:

rom m5stack import *
from m5ui import *
from uiflow import *

rgb.set_screen([0,0,0,0,0xFFFFFF,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0])
setScreenColor(0x222222)

Ok, so I thought I would change version via the Ver button at the top of the screen, now all I get is:

0_1586900318444_c38ae718-927a-486d-b540-bc31fbbfe7f9-image.png

  1. On startup I get:

0_1586900382795_704ee601-390a-4461-89be-2cde53e65372-image.png

Everytime even though the driver is installed. I select Skip which takes me to the main GUI which informs me the Atom-matrix is detected.

  1. Basic editing navigation via shortcut keys such as <ctrl> S don't work - very annoying.

Because of the Javascript error I can't open in UIFlow anymore to continue.... Now I'm stuck.

Please tell me I'm doing something wrong and being a complete idiot...

Enclose your code in sets of three back ticks (```)
