I’m currently working on a small aquaponics project with PocketCHIP, CHIP I2C DIP, a humidity/temp. sensor and very basic Python knowledge.
The idea is that the PocketCHIP and sensor monitor the greenhouse humidity/temp. and report back every 15 mins. If the temp. goes up too much a window opens and the greenhouse cools.
Have to admit that I’m fumbling my way through the project. I currently have the code for the sensor, I added a countdown timer script for 15 mins and put everything in a while True loop.
Anyway, I’m interested in using Blynk to monitor the humidity/temp. on my iPhone, but I’m not finding much to go on.
Anyone using PocketCHIP or CHIP for projects, or would have an idea of how to get started connecting to the PocketCHIP.
And I have managed to install (but not used) both server and client in C.H.I.P. (basicly following RPi install methods) - It is reportedly possible, but not officially supported in Blynk yet. Getting Blynk (client) to work on C.H.I.P. hardware
Aside from some direct Python/Javascript (i.e. I don’t know what it was ) XIO pin manipulation of a battery monitoring script (non Blynk) I have not yet wrangled proper GPIO support… something I am working on learning, over on their forum. https://bbs.nextthing.co/
Ok. Thanks.
I’ll keep up on the forum and see if anything developes.
I don’t have anywhere near enough know how to figure it out myself.
I would basically need a walk-through. Hopefully that would happen sometime soon.
