LoRaWAN ESP32 IDF component

Hi there,

I'm looking for a LoRaWAN IDF component I could use to drive the LoPy SX1272 chip (or similar using SPI). The Lua RTOS project has something interesting, but I was wondering if any of you guys have been using this already or if there's something else around

Thanks,
Martijn

Hi smeedy,

I'm also looking for some LoRaWAN library. Did you have any success in this question?

No I did not and I'm still keeping an eye out. The Lua RTOS ESP32 project has a component which is highly coupled with all Lua magic from the project and is not a good candidate to be ported. Porting the LMIC myself is something is were I burned and lost some time, but as also mentioned elsewhere, there are timing issues and other difficulties.

So I'm still waiting as well.

At this moment, I working on port IBM LMIC library. Now I successfully pass OTAA Join to my Gateway but have troubles with receiving data messages on gateway side.

Nice and sounds promising! Share your component early on Github so we can all contribute. I'm busy for the next couple of weeks, but I can always take a look (and shift priorities...)

OK, I will create GitHub repo ASAP, but honestly it's very ugly now.
And like you said before, I found timing issues and now trying to fix them :|

Hi,
Unfortunately (or luckily) my company decide change LoRa driver on RN2903, so I stop porting LMIC library

Ok. No problem and looks like a very viable solution if you are ultimately interested in just getting the project done and porting LMIC is only an enabler. Microchip RN2903 LoRaWAN module looks like a nice candidate indeed.
