How to DS18b20+arduino to send to www.grovestreams,com

Using Arduino Sensors
#1

Hello
I would not know how to send data on the temperature of the DS18b20 via arduino to grovestreams(https://www.grovestreams.com/).
If someone has a code I would share it.
thank you

moderator: updated the title

does www.grovestream.com provide any other arduino example?
Or does google?

You might need to merge DS18B20 example code with such.

Have you read this - GroveStreams Arduino - Quick Start -

just mix their example with another temp sensor code...

Hi there,

I am just new in using arduino and I could not find an easy code to send the DS18B20 signal through grovestreams. Could anyone have a look in my code and see what I am doing wrong?

#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>

#include <OneWire.h>
#include <DallasTemperature.h>

// Data wire is plugged into pin 10 on the Arduino
#define ONE_WIRE_BUS 10

// Setup a oneWire instance to communicate with any OneWire devices
// (not just Maxim/Dallas temperature ICs)
OneWire oneWire(ONE_WIRE_BUS);

// Pass our oneWire reference to Dallas Temperature.
DallasTemperature sensors(&oneWire);

// soil is for the Hygrometer
int soil=0;

// Local Network Settings
byte mac = {
0x00, 0x16, 0x3E, 0x5F, 0x45, 0xA4 }; // Change this!!! Must be unique on local network.
// Look for a sticker on the back of your Ethernet shield.

// GroveStreams Settings
char gsApiKey = “6074-4bb8-3a67-a9bf-5bb3542739a5”; //Change This!!!
char gsComponentName = “Aquaponics”; //Optionally change. Set this to give your component a name when it initially registers.

char gsDomain = “grovestreams.com”; //Don’t change. The GroveStreams domain.
char gsComponentTemplateId = “temp”; //Don’t change. Tells GS what template to use when the feed initially arrives and a new component needs to be created.
// The blueprint is expecting “temp”.

//GroveStreams Stream IDs. Stream IDs tell GroveStreams which component streams the values will be assigned to.
//Don’t change these unless you edit your GroveStreams component definition and change the stream IDs to match these.
char gsStreamId1 = “s1”; //Temperature.
char gsStreamId2 = “s2”; //Humidity.

// Other Settings
const unsigned long updateFrequency = 20000UL; // Update frequency in milliseconds (20000 = 20 seconds). Change this to change your sample frequency.

char samples[35]; // Change this buffer size only if you increase or decrease the size of samples being uploaded.

char myIPAddress[20]; //Don’t Change. Set below from DHCP. Needed by GroveStreams to verify that a device is not uploading more than once every 10s.

// feeds are uploading into. It must match an existing GroveStreams component’s ID

  • float degreesC, soil;*
    // request to all devices on the bus

    // Send the command to get temperatures

_ //voltage = (analogRead(temperaturePin) * 1);_

  • sensorValue = constrain(sensorValue, 400, 1023);*

  • // print out the value you read:*

  • //Serial.println(sensorValue);*

  • //map the value to a percentage*

  • char Hum[15] = {0}; //Initialize buffer to nulls*

  • //Assemble the samples into URL parameters which are seperated with the “&” character*

  • //*

  • // Example: &s1=25.684&s2=78.231*

  • sprintf(samples, “&%s=%s&%s=%s”, gsStreamId1, trim(tempC), gsStreamId2, trim(Hum));*

    _char* trim(char* input) _

  • int i,j;*
    _ char *output=input;_

  • for (i = 0, j = 0; i<strlen(input); i++,j++) *

  • {*
    _ if (input*!=’ ') _
    _ output[j]=input;
    else*
    * j–;
    }
     output[j]=0;
     return output;
    }*
    It returns as temperature = 127 which means that it is not reading.
    I am sure that the sensor works because when I test it with different code it works.
    Cheers_
