I have a door knob with a remote keyfob that I've attached to my Arduino, now I'd like to be able to send GET (or POST) requests over the internet to my Arduino from an Android App to make it unlock/lock the door. I basically need help getting the arduino to understand that the client accessing it's webserver is trying to execute GET /unlock or GET /lock and then it needs to obviously give a response and then set a pin to HIGH and the back to LOW.
Any assistance in getting the parsing of web requests done would be greatly appreciated!
Below is some simple code that should be able to be operated from a web enabled cell phone.
//zoomkat 9-5-11
//simple button GET with iframe code
//for use with IDE 0021
//open serial monitor to see what the arduino receives
//use the \ slash to escape the " in the html
//address will look like http://192.168.1.102:84/ when submited
//for use with W5100 based ethernet shields
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>
byte mac[] = { 0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED }; //physical mac address
byte ip[] = { 192, 168, 1, 102 }; // ip in lan
byte gateway[] = { 192, 168, 1, 1 }; // internet access via router
byte subnet[] = { 255, 255, 255, 0 }; //subnet mask
Server server(84); //server port
String readString;
//////////////////////
void setup(){
pinMode(4, OUTPUT); //pin selected to control
//start Ethernet
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip, gateway, subnet);
server.begin();
//enable serial data print
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("servertest1"); // so I can keep track of what is loaded
}
void loop(){
// Create a client connection
Client client = server.available();
if (client) {
while (client.connected()) {
if (client.available()) {
char c = client.read();
//read char by char HTTP request
if (readString.length() < 100) {
//store characters to string
readString += c;
//Serial.print(c);
}
//if HTTP request has ended
if (c == '\n') {
///////////////
Serial.println(readString); //print to serial monitor for debuging
//now output HTML data header
if(readString.indexOf('?') >=0) { //don't send new page
client.println("HTTP/1.1 204 Zoomkat");
client.println();
client.println();
}
else {
client.println("HTTP/1.1 200 OK"); //send new page
client.println("Content-Type: text/html");
client.println();
client.println("<HTML>");
client.println("<HEAD>");
client.println("<TITLE>Arduino GET test page</TITLE>");
client.println("</HEAD>");
client.println("<BODY>");

client.println("</HTML>");
}
delay(1);
//stopping client
client.stop();
