ESP HTTPS OTA¶
Overview¶
esp_https_ota
provides simplified APIs to perform firmware upgrades over HTTPS.
It’s an abstraction layer over existing OTA APIs.
Application Example¶
esp_err_t do_firmware_upgrade() { esp_http_client_config_t config = { .url = CONFIG_FIRMWARE_UPGRADE_URL, .cert_pem = (char *)server_cert_pem_start, }; esp_err_t ret = esp_https_ota(&config); if (ret == ESP_OK) { esp_restart(); } else { return ESP_FAIL; } return ESP_OK; }

Functions¶
-
esp_err_t
esp_https_ota
(const esp_http_client_config_t *config)¶ HTTPS OTA Firmware upgrade.
This function allocates HTTPS OTA Firmware upgrade context, establishes HTTPS connection, reads image data from HTTP stream and writes it to OTA partition and finishes HTTPS OTA Firmware upgrade operation. This API supports URL redirection, but if CA cert of URLs differ then it should be appended to
cert_pem
member ofconfig
.- Note
This API handles the entire OTA operation, so if this API is being used then no other APIs from
esp_https_ota
component should be called. If more information and control is needed during the HTTPS OTA process, then one can useesp_https_ota_begin
and subsequent APIs. If this API returns successfully, esp_restart() must be called to boot from the new firmware image.- Return
ESP_OK: OTA data updated, next reboot will use specified partition.
ESP_FAIL: For generic failure.
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Invalid argument
ESP_ERR_OTA_VALIDATE_FAILED: Invalid app image
ESP_ERR_NO_MEM: Cannot allocate memory for OTA operation.
ESP_ERR_FLASH_OP_TIMEOUT or ESP_ERR_FLASH_OP_FAIL: Flash write failed.
For other return codes, refer OTA documentation in esp-idf’s app_update component.
- Parameters
[in] config
: pointer to esp_http_client_config_t structure.
-
esp_err_t
esp_https_ota_begin
(esp_https_ota_config_t *ota_config, esp_https_ota_handle_t *handle)¶ Start HTTPS OTA Firmware upgrade.
This function initializes ESP HTTPS OTA context and establishes HTTPS connection. This function must be invoked first. If this function returns successfully, then
esp_https_ota_perform
should be called to continue with the OTA process and there should be a call toesp_https_ota_finish
on completion of OTA operation or on failure in subsequent operations. This API supports URL redirection, but if CA cert of URLs differ then it should be appended tocert_pem
member ofhttp_config
, which is a part ofota_config
. In case of error, this API explicitly setshandle
to NULL.- Note
This API is blocking, so setting
is_async
member ofhttp_config
structure will result in an error.- Return
ESP_OK: HTTPS OTA Firmware upgrade context initialised and HTTPS connection established
ESP_FAIL: For generic failure.
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Invalid argument (missing/incorrect config, certificate, etc.)
For other return codes, refer documentation in app_update component and esp_http_client component in esp-idf.
- Parameters
[in] ota_config
: pointer to esp_https_ota_config_t structure[out] handle
: pointer to an allocated data of typeesp_https_ota_handle_t
which will be initialised in this function
-
esp_err_t
esp_https_ota_perform
(esp_https_ota_handle_t https_ota_handle)¶ Read image data from HTTP stream and write it to OTA partition.
This function reads image data from HTTP stream and writes it to OTA partition. This function must be called only if esp_https_ota_begin() returns successfully. This function must be called in a loop since it returns after every HTTP read operation thus giving you the flexibility to stop OTA operation midway.
- Return
ESP_ERR_HTTPS_OTA_IN_PROGRESS: OTA update is in progress, call this API again to continue.
ESP_OK: OTA update was successful
ESP_FAIL: OTA update failed
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Invalid argument
ESP_ERR_OTA_VALIDATE_FAILED: Invalid app image
ESP_ERR_NO_MEM: Cannot allocate memory for OTA operation.
ESP_ERR_FLASH_OP_TIMEOUT or ESP_ERR_FLASH_OP_FAIL: Flash write failed.
For other return codes, refer OTA documentation in esp-idf’s app_update component.
- Parameters
[in] https_ota_handle
: pointer to esp_https_ota_handle_t structure
-
bool
esp_https_ota_is_complete_data_received
(esp_https_ota_handle_t https_ota_handle)¶ Checks if complete data was received or not.
- Note
This API can be called just before esp_https_ota_finish() to validate if the complete image was indeed received.
- Return
false
true
- Parameters
[in] https_ota_handle
: pointer to esp_https_ota_handle_t structure
-
esp_err_t
esp_https_ota_finish
(esp_https_ota_handle_t https_ota_handle)¶ Clean-up HTTPS OTA Firmware upgrade and close HTTPS connection.
This function closes the HTTP connection and frees the ESP HTTPS OTA context. This function switches the boot partition to the OTA partition containing the new firmware image.
- Note
If this API returns successfully, esp_restart() must be called to boot from the new firmware image esp_https_ota_finish should not be called after calling esp_https_ota_abort
- Return
ESP_OK: Clean-up successful
ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Invalid argument
ESP_ERR_OTA_VALIDATE_FAILED: Invalid app image
- Parameters
[in] https_ota_handle
: pointer to esp_https_ota_handle_t structure
-
esp_err_t
esp_https_ota_abort
(esp_https_ota_handle_t https_ota_handle)¶ Clean-up HTTPS OTA Firmware upgrade and close HTTPS connection.
This function closes the HTTP connection and frees the ESP HTTPS OTA context.
- Note
esp_https_ota_abort should not be called after calling esp_https_ota_finish
- Return
ESP_OK: Clean-up successful
ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE: Invalid ESP HTTPS OTA state
ESP_FAIL: OTA not started
ESP_ERR_NOT_FOUND: OTA handle not found
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Invalid argument
- Parameters
[in] https_ota_handle
: pointer to esp_https_ota_handle_t structure
-
esp_err_t
esp_https_ota_get_img_desc
(esp_https_ota_handle_t https_ota_handle, esp_app_desc_t *new_app_info)¶ Reads app description from image header. The app description provides information like the “Firmware version” of the image.
- Note
This API can be called only after esp_https_ota_begin() and before esp_https_ota_perform(). Calling this API is not mandatory.
- Return
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Invalid arguments
ESP_FAIL: Failed to read image descriptor
ESP_OK: Successfully read image descriptor
- Parameters
[in] https_ota_handle
: pointer to esp_https_ota_handle_t structure[out] new_app_info
: pointer to an allocated esp_app_desc_t structure
-
int
esp_https_ota_get_image_len_read
(esp_https_ota_handle_t https_ota_handle)¶ This function returns OTA image data read so far.
- Note
This API should be called only if
esp_https_ota_perform()
has been called atleast once or ifesp_https_ota_get_img_desc
has been called before.- Return
-1 On failure
total bytes read so far
- Parameters
[in] https_ota_handle
: pointer to esp_https_ota_handle_t structure
