(answered) using NVS hex2bin

[mzimmers]

Hi, all -

I use the NVS Partition Generator Utility to create binary files for flashing to the ESP32. My CSV file looks something like this:

Code: Select all

key,type,encoding,value
cd_ns_serial,namespace,,
serialNbr,data,string,"123456789"
macAddr,data,hex2bin,112233445566
label,data,string,"Cyberdata, Inc."

I've edited the .bin file to verify that the hex to binary conversion is successful.

But now...how do I read that data programmatically? It doesn't fit any of the data types identified in the NVS library.

Thanks...

"hex2bin", "binary", "base64" options all produce a "blob" type in NVS.

Ah...OK, thanks, Igrr.

BTW: I don't seem to be getting notifications when people (like you) reply to me...is the notification emailer down? It's happened on a few threads of mine (like this one).
