Step 1: publish your project on github
You must first create your manifest file that must be called "library.json" and it must be in the root of the project
In my case it has the following structure:
{
"name": "EasyOta",
"keywords": "ota, over,to, air,esp8266",
"description": " The easiest way to implement ota on an esp8266 based chip using an HTTP server",
"repository":
{
"type": "git",
"url": "https://github.com/Eitol/EasyOta.git"
},
"authors":
[
{
"name": "Hector Oliveros",
"email": "hector.oliveros.leon@gmail.com",
"maintainer": true
}
],
"license": "MIT",
"version": "1.0",
"frameworks": "arduino",
"platforms": "espressif8266"
}
Step 2: copy the url of the raw project
The url is some like this:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GITHUB_USER/PROJECT/master/library.json
Example:
For my project with url = https://github.com/Eitol/EasyOta
Then, the url is:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Eitol/EasyOta/master/library.json
Step 3: Use the url to register your library
The command is:
platformio lib register [MANIFEST_URL]
example:
platformio lib register https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Eitol/EasyOta/master/library.json
