Library dependency / cannot resolve / compile errors

[Kybernaut000]

Hello!

TLDR:

Cannot get it compiled, errors are similar to

In file included from .pio/libdeps/egon/AsyncTCP-esphome/src/AsyncTCP.cpp:24:
.pio/libdeps/egon/AsyncTCP-esphome/src/AsyncTCP.h:26:10: fatal error: IPv6Address.h: No such file or directory

Details

I was trying to get things compiled along the readme.md using platformio on ESP32. It says:

lib_deps =
    ESPUI
    ESP Async WebServer
    ESPAsyncTCP # (or AsyncTCP on ESP32)
    LittleFS_esp32 # (ESP32 only)

Got compile errors. Read lots of stuff around lib_deps, strict, chain, chain+, etc. Didn't manage to get it compiled.

I found platformio.ini in ESPUI/pio_examples/gui (Please, reference this in the readme.md, would have saved me 4 hours minimum).
Imported settings, still problem.

Settings:

Right now I'm with the following settings:

[env:egon]
platform = espressif32
board = az-delivery-devkit-v4
framework = arduino

lib_deps =

    bblanchon/ArduinoJson @ ^7.0.4
    https://github.com/bmedici/ESPAsyncWebServer ; Use a fork of the library that has a bugfix for the compile.... https://github.com/esphome/ESPAsyncWebServer/pull/17
    me-no-dev/AsyncTCP
    s00500/ESPUI

lib_ignore =
	ESP Async WebServer	; force the use of the esphome version
	AsyncTCP			; force the use of the esphome version
	LittleFS_esp32		; force the use of the ESP32 built into the core version

;board_build.flash_mode = dout
board_build.filesystem = littlefs

monitor_speed = 115200
monitor_dtr = 1
monitor_rts = 1

build_flags = 
	-DCORE_DEBUG_LEVEL=4
    ;-DDEBUG_ESPUI


;lib_compat_mode=strict
;lib_ldf_mode=chain+

General Questions:

• Why are you using lib_ignore instead of referencing correct libs in library.json?
• Why are you using special versions of ESPAsyncWebServer?
• Why not just referencing all libs with owner/lib@^version, as this is recommended in platform io documentation?

[s00500]

the special version was needed as back when this was developed. The ESPHome fork of the library was working much better back then.

I have updated the gui example pio ini file. Can you test and confirm before I roll it out to all examples ? ESP8266 build seems fine
