Uploading data to ThingSpeak


#1

Hi,
Is it possible to use ulisp to upload sensor data to Thingspeak?

I have done this using with an ESP32 board and making use of the thingspeak Arduino library and this is straight forward. However i would like to do the same thing using ulisp. Apparently there are a couple of options if a dedicated library does not exist:

  1. upload directly using a web client to post to the thingspeak webserver channel or;
  2. upload a .csv file to the thingspeak webserver channel and make use of options within the channel.

Which would be easier?

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers.

Hi @katesfb,

I’ve had a look at the ThingSpeak Arduino library at https://github.com/mathworks/thingspeak-arduino.

The simplest way to support ThingSpeak from uLisp would be to write a uLisp extension to the Arduino library; for more information see Adding your own functions. This would require some C programming expertise.
