Adding a new framework to Platformio

[ivankravets]

• Install the latest development version of PlatformIO 3.0
• Install Espressif development platform for PlatformIO 3.0

platformio platform install espressif

Development platform will be installed to ~/.platformio/platforms/espressif

• Add Sming to platform.json manifest file

  "frameworks": {
    "arduino": {
      "package": "framework-arduinoespressif",
      "script": "builder/frameworks/arduino.py"
    },
    "simba": {
      "package": "framework-simba",
      "script": "builder/frameworks/simba.py"
    },
    "sming": {
      "package": "framework-sming",
      "script": "builder/frameworks/sming.py"
    }
  },
  "packages": {
    "framework-sming": {
      "type": "framework",
      "optional": true,
      "version": "~1.1.0"
    }
}

• Create folder ~/.platformio/packages/framework-sming and palce here source code of the framework.
• Add package.json to ~/.platformio/packages/framework-sming folder with the next contents:

{
    "description": "Sming Framework for Espressif",
    "name": "framework-sming",
    "system": "*",
    "url": "...",
    "version": "1.1.0"
}

• Write build script for Sming using PlatformIO Build System API. See examples. Place it to ~/.platformio/platforms/espressif/builder/frameworks/sming.py
• Add support for Sming framework to the one of embedded boards. For examples, platform-espressif8266/esp01.json at develop · platformio/platform-espressif8266 · GitHub

  "frameworks": [
    "arduino", 
    "simba",
    "sming"
  ],

• Build project via platformio run

[env:smingtest]
platform = espressif
framework = sming
board = esp01
