C API Documentation
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
|
|
The C API is very simple and consist of these two basic parts:
|
|
|
|
- :ref:`lifecycle_api`
|
|
- :ref:`modem_commands`
|
|
|
|
The Typical application workflow is to:
|
|
|
|
- Create a DCE instance (using :cpp:func:`esp_modem_new`)
|
|
- Call specific functions to issue AT commands (:ref:`modem_commands`)
|
|
- Switch to the data mode (using :cpp:func:`esp_modem_set_mode`)
|
|
- Perform desired network operations (using standard networking API, unrelated to ESP-MODEM)
|
|
- Optionally switch back to command mode (again :cpp:func:`esp_modem_set_mode`)
|
|
- Destroy the DCE handle (sing :cpp:func:`esp_modem_destroy`)
|
|
|
|
Note the configuration structures for DTE and DCE, needed for creating the DCE instance, is documented in :ref:`api_config`
|

Lifecycle API
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
These functions are used to create, destroy and set modem working mode.
|
|
|
|
- :cpp:func:`esp_modem_new`
|
|
- :cpp:func:`esp_modem_destroy`
|
|
- :cpp:func:`esp_modem_set_mode`

Modem commands
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
These functions are the actual commands to communicate with the modem using AT command interface.
|
|
|
|
Note that the functions which implement AT commands returning textual values use plain ``char *``
|
|
pointer as the return value. The API expects the output data to point to user allocated space of at least
|
|
``ESP_MODEM_C_API_STR_MAX`` (64 by default) bytes, it also truncates the output data to this size.
