Replace multi-page portal with hash-routed SPA, DFTE shell placeholders, and
data-first JSON APIs. Remove legacy routes, root-template override path, and
HTML-derived info pipeline. Add bootstrap feature flags, in-DOM toast/dialog UX,
OTA via POST /u, and tests for shell, bootstrap, API JSON, and captive host rule.
Rewrite README as fork disclaimer and modernization overview.
Replace DEBUG_WM with WiFiManagerLogLevel/log(), optional WiFiManagerLogSink,
and WM_NO_LOG stripping. Add JSON API handlers and shell templates (RootShell,
PortalAppJS). Bridge DFTE logging with owner-scoped teardown; add migrate_debug_wm
helper; document and set WM_LOG_LEVEL in platformio.
- Document fork/DFTE in README; WiFiManager template setup API forwards to server
- Remove nested lib/WiFiManager/library.json; rely on root library.json only
- Delete legacy extras/ tooling; point HTML help link at this fork
- Add WiFiManagerDfteLogger and WM_DFTE_LOGGING integration in WiFiManagerServer
- Pin ESP8266 Arduino core (postmortem jump fix) in platformio.ini for tests
Split reusable HTML into Fragments, Message, and Param headers; route
more pages through DFTE streaming. Update handlers, WiFi polling JS,
and configuration/scanning tests; add template rendering coverage.
Harden the root placeholder path, add direct render-isolation coverage, move simple status pages and /info onto request-scoped streamed templates, and switch /wifi to a streamed shell while keeping scan/form sections string-built for now.
Keep root template state request-scoped so dynamic placeholders stay consistent during chunked renders, add reserve() coverage for non-streamed pages, and add compile/test coverage for the new root render lifecycle.
- Delete language files (wm_strings_*/wm_consts_*) and wm_consts_en.h
- Move constants to appropriate headers (routes/menu tokens to Server, CSS/forms/headers to Handlers)
- Extract utility functions to WiFiManagerUtils.h/cpp
- Create template files (HTML.h, CSS.h, JS.h) for web interface
- Update version to 2.0.18
- Remove unused HTTP_HEAD_CL constant
- Move server lifecycle management to WiFiManagerServer
- Move HTTP handlers and rendering to WiFiManagerHandlers
- Move DEBUG_WM template definitions to WiFiManagerDebug
- Implement lazy initialization of server manager to save memory
- Add proper cleanup in destructor and on multiple createServer calls
- Update tests to use getServer() and getDNSServer() accessors
- Remove setConfigPortalBlocking() API and _configPortalIsBlocking member variable
- Remove blocking while(1) loop from startConfigPortal()
- Change startConfigPortal() return type from boolean to void
- Change stopConfigPortal() return type from bool to void
- Make stopConfigPortal() immediately shutdown portal (call shutdownConfigPortal() directly)
- Remove unused portalAbortResult and portalTimeoutResult variables
- Update all comments to remove blocking mode references
- Simplify debug messages (remove 'non-blocking' references)
- Update tests to remove setConfigPortalBlocking() calls
- All 43 tests passing
The config portal is now always non-blocking, requiring users to call
process() periodically in their main loop. This aligns with the async
web server architecture and simplifies the API.
- Remove async parameter from WiFi_scanNetworks() method signatures
- Move JavaScript code to templates/WiFiPollingJS.h using R"rawliteral" format
- Fix JavaScript syntax errors by eliminating quote escaping issues
- Change scan status route from /wifi/scanstatus to /wifistatus to avoid route conflicts
- Cleaner code structure with JavaScript in separate template file
- Replace ESP8266WebServer/WebServer with ESPAsyncWebServer
- Update all route handlers to async pattern with AsyncWebServerRequest*
- Replace synchronous HTTPSend() with request->send()
- Add configurable delay constants (REBOOT_DELAY_MS, EXIT_DELAY_MS, ERASE_REBOOT_DELAY_MS)
- Implement scheduled reboot/abort flags instead of blocking delays
- Update WiFiManagerRequestArgs to use AsyncWebServerRequest
- Remove server->handleClient() and server->stop() calls (not needed for AsyncWebServer)
- Update parameter access to use request->getParam() instead of server->arg()
- Add ESPAsyncWebServer to platformio.ini dependencies
- Created WiFiManagerRequestArgs nested class to encapsulate HTTP request arguments
- Updated setSaveParamsCallback to accept WiFiManagerRequestArgs by value
- Updated handleWifiSave() and handleParamSave() to build RequestArgs early
- Updated doParamSave() to accept and use RequestArgs for custom HTML params
- Updated test callbacks to match new signature
- All tests passing (43/43)
- Move library code from src/ to lib/WiFiManager/src/
- Move headers from include/ to lib/WiFiManager/include/
- Move library.json to lib/WiFiManager/
- Update platformio.ini with Unity test framework configuration
- Add test structure following PlatformIO unit testing best practices
- Remove empty src/ directory (not needed for library-only projects)
