Anyone have a working on current build of NodeMCU(Master) example for "Hello World" on a 128x64 SSD1306 based display ?

mos has a good one. I bought one of those modules and had a hard time finding a working example. Arduino code is found left and right, but not NodeMCU code.
So I built something from scratch and it was pretty painful.
And then I found out they have a fully working one. Works like a charm.
Uses I2C and not SPI, but the difference is only one initialization call: disp = u8g.ssd1306_64x48_i2c(sla) replace with the corresponding spi call. And you need to set up SPI of course.

Cant seem to get this code: http://pastebin.com/2ij55FpR in a file named "app.lua" to work at all, keep getting the following error:

ssd1306_128x64_spi references the specific OLED display. Make sure you include the correct driver when you build the firmware. Also, as per https://nodemcu.readthedocs.io/en/dev/e ... ay-drivers it should be u8g.ssd1306_128x64_hw_spi() (note the extra 'hw_').
