Hi, Guys
I am using esp8266 with arduino using AT commands to get json data from a file named data.json on a hosting service.
Here is the code
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
const byte rxPin = 2;
const byte txPin = 3;
String ssid = "MY_SSID";
String password = "MY_PASS";
SoftwareSerial esp8266 (rxPin, txPin);
String path = "/data.json";
String server = "wsiproject995.000webhostapp.com";
String getRequest = "GET " + path + " HTTP/1.1\r\n" + "Host: " + server + "\r\n" + "Connection: keep-alive\r\n\r\n";
String getRequestLength = String(getRequest.length());
String response="";
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
esp8266.begin(9600);
delay(1000);
reset();
//setMode("1");
connectWifi();
}
void loop() {
esp8266.println("AT+CIPSTART=\"TCP\",\"" + server + "\",80");
if(esp8266.find("OK")) Serial.println("TCP Connection Ready");
esp8266.println("AT+CIPSEND=" + getRequestLength);
if(esp8266.find(">")) {
Serial.println("Sending Request...");
esp8266.print(getRequest);
}
if(esp8266.find("SEND OK")) Serial.println("Request Sent");
while(!esp8266.available()) {};
espRead();
esp8266.println("AT+CIPCLOSE");
if(esp8266.find("OK")) Serial.println("TCP Connection Closed");
delay(5000);
}
void espRead() {
String c;
while(esp8266.available()) {
c = esp8266.readString();
Serial.print(c);
}
}
void espClear() {
while(esp8266.available()) {
esp8266.read();
}
}
void reset() {
Serial.println("Resetting WiFi");
esp8266.println("AT+RST");
delay(1000);
if(esp8266.find("OK")) Serial.println("Reset!");
}
void connectWifi() {
espClear();
Serial.println("Connecting...");
String CMD = "AT+CWJAP=\"" +ssid+"\",\"" + password + "\"";
esp8266.println(CMD);
while(!esp8266.available()) {};
if(esp8266.find("OK")) Serial.println("Connected");
else Serial.println("Couldn't connect to WiFi");
}
void setMode(String mode) {
Serial.println("Setting Mode = " + mode);
esp8266.println("AT+CWMODE=" + mode);
delay(1000);
espRead();
}
and here is the response
+IPD,369:HTTP/1.1 200 OK

{"relay":"OFF","current":10,"energy":200}
OK
Now as you can see I am getting the json data but I am also getting a weird OK at the last line which doesn't happen in the examples that I've seen online
My question is how to get the data get stored in a String variable so I can parse it using some library.
I've tried using readStringUntil("\r\n\r\n") but the OK doesn't go away.
Help.
Thanks
