I'm trying to make a WiFi enabled egg-cooker. I have a working Arduino sketch and am now trying to port it to ESPHome so that it can interface with Home Assistant. Here's a link to the code: https://github.com/Amanoo/Smart-Egg-Cooker/tree/feature-esphome/eggslice
In this folder, run these commands:
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install esphome
pip3 install tornado esptool
esphome run eggcooker.yaml
This will compile the whole thing. However, it will eventually throw an error:
/home/marco/.platformio/packages/toolchain-xtensa-esp32/bin/../lib/gcc/xtensa-esp32-elf/8.4.0/../../../../xtensa-esp32-elf/bin/ld: .pioenvs/eggcooker/src/main.cpp.o:(.literal._ZNSt17_Function_handlerIFSt6vectorIPN7esphome9ComponentESaIS3_EEvEZ5setupvEUlvE_E9_M_invokeERKSt9_Any_data+0x8): undefined reference to `EggCooker::EggCooker(esphome::sensor::Sensor*, esphome::text_sensor::TextSensor*)'

/home/marco/Desktop/Smart-Egg-Cooker-feature-esphome/eggslice/.esphome/build/eggcooker/eggcooker.yaml:53: undefined reference to `EggCooker::EggCooker(esphome::sensor::Sensor*, esphome::text_sensor::TextSensor*)'
In my yaml file, my custom component is defined as follows:
custom_component:
- lambda: |-
auto my_custom = new EggCooker(id(secs),id(state));
App.register_component(my_custom);
return {my_custom};
This should create the entire thing. Secs is a sensor with device_class duration, and state is a text_sensor, both described in the yaml. These are passed to the EggCooker constructor. The EggCooker is defined in the eggslice.h file and accompanying cpp.
EggCooker::EggCooker(Sensor* secs, TextSensor* state) : secs_(secs), state_(state) {}
should just use the two sensors and save their pointers. Seems like it's the type of constructor the yaml should want. Yet, it complains.
I've tried to include my C++ code in the yaml, which should be obvious. Wrote a constructor for an object that is expected by the yaml code. Still throwqs an error. I've tried to toy around with namespaces and with adding esphome::sensor:: and esphome::text_sensor:: in front of everywhere, but it just won't stop complaining about this. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
