This repository serves as a collection of resources created in my journey to learn & utilize [LoRa](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LoRa) based communications with [Meshtastic](https://meshtastic.org).
The goal here is to create simple & clean modules to interface with the hardware in a way that can be used to expand the possibilities of the devices capabilities.
The hardware I am experimenting with: [Lilygo T-Deck](https://www.lilygo.cc/products/t-deck), [Lilygo T-Beam](https://www.lilygo.cc/products/t-beam-v1-1-esp32-lora-module), [Heltec Lora 32 v3](https://heltec.org/project/wifi-lora-32-v3/), and [RAK Wireless 4631](https://store.rakwireless.com/products/wisblock-core-modules?variant=42440631419078)
- T-Deck must have Wifi turned off when going mobile. Upon leaving my house with WiFi still enabled, the UI & connection was EXTREMELY laggy & poor. Couldn't even type well...
-`event_node` event is called **AS** we are defining the interface, so using `self.interface` in that callback will error.
## Roadmap
- Asyncronous meshtastic interface *(Priority)*
- MQTT interface with working decryption
- Documentation on MQTT bridging for high availability
- Create a simple setup script to provision new devices over serial
- Bridge for IRC to allow channel messages to relay over Meshtastic & all Meshtastic events to relay into IRC. *(IRC to Meshtastic will require a command like `!mesh <message here>` to avoid overloading the traffic over LoRa)*
