For many applications, this // will be all that is needed. However, for many other types of applications you may need to take action or perform some background operations without // any prompting or requests from HomeKit. // To perform background operations and actions, every Service implements a loop() method. The default loop() method is to do nothing, which has been // fine for all our prior examples. But if you need to perform some continuous background action, all you need to do is implement a loop() method for // your derived Service. At the end of each HomeSpan polling cycle, the loop() method is called for each Service that implements its own code. // In this fashion, the loop() method is similar to the main loop() method in the Arduino IDE itself - except it can be customized for each Service. // In this Example 12 we explore the use of loop() methods to implement two new accessories - a Temperature Sensor and an Air Quality Sensor. Of course // we won't actually have these physical devices attached to the ESP32 for the purpose of this example, but we will simulate "reading" their properties. // This is one of the main purposes of implementing a loop() method. It allows you to read a sensor or perform some sort of repetitive, Service-specific // action. // Once you read (or simulate reading) a sensor's values in a loop() method, you need to somehow communicate this back to HomeKit so the new values can be // reflected in the HomeKit Controller. This may be strictly for information purposes (such as a temperature sensor) or could be used by HomeKit itself // to trigger other devices (as might occur if implementing a Door Sensor). // Fortunately, HomeSpan makes communicating the values of Characteristics back to HomeKit easy. In prior examples we saw how getVal() and getNewVal() // are used to read current and updated Characteristic values requested by HomeKit. To perform the reverse, we simply use a method called setVal(). // Setting the value of a Characteristic with this function does two things. First, it causes HomeSpan to send an Event Notification message back to HomeKit // letting HomeKit know the new value of the Characteristic. Since messages create network traffic, HomeSpan keeps track of all setVal() changes across // all Services and creates one a single Event Notification message reporting all the changes togther at the end of each polling cycle. // The second thing that HomeSpan does when you change the value of a Characteristic with setVal() is to reset an internal timer for that Characteristic that // keeps track of how long it's been since the last modification, whether from a previous setVal() instruction, or by HomeKit itself via a call to update(). // You can query the time since the last modificaton using the method timeVal() which returns the elapsed time in milliseconds. By calling this function from // within loop() you can determine when it's time for a new sensor read, or when to perform some other action. // NOTE: It it NOT recommended to continuously change Characteristic values using setVal() as this will generate a lot of network traffic since HomeSpan // sends Event Notifications bck to all registered HomeKit Controllers. It's fine to perform internal calculations, generate signals on different pins, // and perform any other internal actions you may need as frequently as you require. But limit the use of setVal() to a reasonable frequency, such as maybe // one per minute for a temperature sensor. Do not use setVal() unless the value of the Characteristic changes, but do use it to immediately inform HomeKit of // something time-sensitive, such as a door opening, or a smoke alarm triggering. // As usual, all of the logic for this example are encapsulated in new standalone derived Services. You'll find fully-commented definitions for the DEV_TempSensor() and // the DEV_AirQualitySensor() Services instantiated below, in the DEV_Sensors.h file. As noted, this example is for instructional purposes only -- we do not actually // connect a Temperature Sensor or Air Quality Sensor to our ESP32 device. As such, we did not define the Services to take any arguments to specify pin numbers or any // other information needed to implement an actual sensor. Instead, in order to see how real a device would work, we simulate periodic changes by modifying Characteristic // values using setVal() with either a sequence of repeating values, or random values. See DEV_Sensors.h for complete details. // Once you understand these examples, you should be able to use implement your own loop() method and utilize setVal() along with timeVal() for any combination of // HomeKit Services with Characteristics that require your device to send periodic update messages to HomeKit Controllers, ranging from Smoke Alarms to Door Sensors.
