Blynk basics - client parameters and making sketch on RPi3 (WireingPi)

[Gunner]

And sketches, can’t understand how it works on RPi3, where is sketch file located? how to activate sketch?

Depends entirely on the type of RPi based Blynk Client you install… there is:

• WiringPi (C++)
• NodeJS
• Python

@g0g0

needed to use “git clone” method which was missed in some tutorial

None of which I am aware of needing a “git clone” method??? What did you install?

@g0g0

still connecting to cloud, what is correct parameter?

For Local Server, you need to use various methods for forcing the IP and port from the default cloud…

• WiringPi: I can’t remember, but I believe a library file also needed to be adjusted.
  EDIT - sudo ./blynk --server=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx --port=8080 --token=xxxxxxx

• NodeJS is modified in the Client sketch as already listed above.

• Python needs to be adjusted in the BlynkLib.py file (you may have to run a search for it on your RPi)… see here
