Eliminated constructor that had no pin parameter. Pin parameter is now always required. Since PushButton was not part of HomeSpan API, these changes should not impact any users.
Only initialize MDNS, WebLog, and OTA when first connecting to WiFi. Do not re-initialize upon re-connections after a disconnect.
Also, add number of disconnects, and reset_reason() to WebLog
The only reason to have used getAccessory(aid) is to delete it, so the delete command is now invoked automatically. Function returns 0 on success (matching aid found) or -1 on fail (aid not found)
Method homeSpan.updateDatabase(boolean updateMDNS) recomputes database hash and compares with previous hash. If changed, config number is updated and saved in NVS along with new hash. If updateMDNS is true, a new "c#" MDNS record is also broadcast with the new config number. This triggers HomeKit to call for a database refresh. Method returns true if config number has changed, or false if it has not.
The "C" command computes a hash of the current database config and updates the config number if needed. If config number has changed, the MDNS "c#" record is updated and the new config number is rebroadcast. This triggers HomeKit to immediately request an update of the HAP database so that the changes can be shortly reflected in the Home App without the need to close any Client connections or reboot the device.
The config number logic has also been updated/fixed. Previously it would create a hash from the full HAP database, which includes the value of each characteristic. Thus, initial value changes of Characteristics, as a result of stored values in NVS, would cause an update to the config number upon reboot.
This is not problematic, but also not intended, as a change in value is not really a change in the database config. The new logic computes a hash of the database that EXCLUDES all Characteristic values.
Rather than call homeSpan.poll() in the main Arduino loop() function, you can instead call homeSpan.start() at the end of the set-up function. This keeps the main Arduino loop() function free for user-defined code that will not block, and does not get blocked by, homeSpan.poll().
If using a dual-core processor, polling now occurs on core 0, instead of the core 1 (where all other Arduino stuff normally runs).
HomeSpan will throw a fatal error and halt processing if both homeSpan.poll() and homeSpan.start() are used in the same sketch.
Gets IP address (as char *) of last client to send a request. Useful as part of web log messages. Will return 0.0.0.0 if used outside of any code that is responding to a client request.
Added isEnabled to SpanWebLog to indicate whether Web Log has been enabled. This allows the use of homeSpan.webLog.addLog() without ever enabling (in which case the log entries are ignored).
Also included logic so that clockTime is set to "Unknown" is addLog() is called prior to WiFi being established.
Next up: replace addLog(const char *) with a variadic set of parameters with dynamic storage allocation.
