example httpserverbmp require a screen?

[stc1988]

I try to run example httpserverbmp with m5stamp_s3 which has no screen, but I saw below error while build application.

Error: no screen configured
 at setup/commodetto ()
### Error: no screen configured!

I understand that Commodetto is required to generate BMP, but I am not sure if it is correct for such a situation to occur when nothing is actually displayed on the screen.
I haven’t tried it, but I think the same can be said about the camera-server.

Thanks for the report.

A little while ago, I changed the setup/commodetto implementation to throw that warning when there is no screen. That is helpful in some cases but, unfortunately, it breaks the httpserverbmp example. Previously, it would silently run.

The following code should work for you. It replaces lines 21 to 28. The error is now a warning traced to the console.

import config from "mc/config";

if (!config.Screen)
	trace("WARNING: no screen configured\n");

export default function (done) {
	if (!global.screen && config.Screen) {
		globalThis.screen = new config.Screen({});

Thank you for confirming. This code works as expected!!

Perfect. Thanks for the quick confirmation. I'll get that applied to the next release.
