External Libraries Testing
##########################
About
-----
External libraries testing is a compilation test for listed libraries on arduino-esp32 master branch. The test was made for users, so they can check which libraries are compiling without errors on which SoC.
External libraries test is running periodically (once a week) against master branch and can also run on PR by adding a label ``lib_test``.
The test is running on all supported ESP32 chips.
.. note::
As the test is just a compilation of example, that does not guarantee that the library/sketch will run without any problems after flashing it on your device.
How to Add Library to Test
--------------------------
To add a library to the CI test you need to add your library to the `lib.json`_. file located in ``./github/workflows/``.
.. note::
Please add the libraries to the `lib.json`_ in alphabetical order, thanks.
List of parameters:
*******************
Where the library will be installed from (use only 1 option):
* ``name`` - Name of the Library in Arduino Library Manager.
* ``source-url`` - URL to the library github repository (example: "https://github.com/Arduino-IRremote/Arduino-IRremote.git"). Use when your Library is not listed in Arduino Library Manager.
Required:
* ``exclude_targets`` - List of targets to be excluded from testing. Use only when the SoC dont support used peripheral.
* ``sketch_path`` - Path / paths to the sketch / sketches to be tested.
Optional:
* ``version`` - Version of the library.
* ``required-libs`` - Libraries that are necessary to be installed to compile the tested library.
* ``destination-name`` - Folder name used for the installation of library (use only when needed).
Example of library addition from Arduino Library Manager with ESP32-S2 excluded:
********************************************************************************
.. code-block:: json
{
"name": "ArduinoBLE",
"exclude_targets": [
"esp32s2"
],
"sketch_path": [
"~/Arduino/libraries/ArduinoBLE/examples/Central/Scan/Scan.ino"
]
}
Example of library addition from Github URL with required library:
******************************************************************
.. code-block:: json
{
"source-url": "https://github.com/me-no-dev/ESPAsyncWebServer.git",
"required-libs": [
{"source-url": "https://github.com/me-no-dev/AsyncTCP.git"}
],
"exclude_targets": [],
"sketch_path": [
"~/Arduino/libraries/ESPAsyncWebServer/examples/CaptivePortal/CaptivePortal.ino",
"~/Arduino/libraries/ESPAsyncWebServer/examples/ESP_AsyncFSBrowser/ESP_AsyncFSBrowser.ino",
"~/Arduino/libraries/ESPAsyncWebServer/examples/regex_patterns/regex_patterns.ino",
"~/Arduino/libraries/ESPAsyncWebServer/examples/simple_server/simple_server.ino"
]
},
Submit a PR
***********
* Open a PR with the changes and someone from Espressif team will add a label ``lib_test`` to the PR and CI will run the test to check, if the addition is fine and the library/example is compiling.
* After merging your PR, the next scheduled test will test your library and add the results to the `LIBRARIES_TEST.md`_.
Test Results
------------
Icons meaning
*************
There is a number before each icon, which means the number of examples which were compiled with that result.
* |success| - Compilation was successful.
* |warning| - Compilation was successful, but some warnings occurs.
* |fail| - Compilation failed.
* ``N/A`` - Not tested (target is in exclude_targets list).
Scheduled test result
*********************
You can check the results in `LIBRARIES_TEST.md`_.
The results file example:

Pull Request test result
************************
If the test run on Pull Request, it will compile all libraries and sketches 2 times (before/after changes in PR) to see, if the PR is breaking/fixing libraries.
In the table the results are in order ``BEFORE -> AFTER``.
