windows to emoncms : I need some help with inputs

Submitted by MPooley on Thu, 01/05/2014 - 10:09

Hi all

Getting my emonTx today, and have just written some test code to input data.

uploading csv is ok as the example specifies the Node but How do I specify the node in a json statement?

this always post's to node zero

"http://192.168.1.105/emoncms/input/post.json?json={xxx}&apikey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

I have tried variations on

"http://192.168.1.105/emoncms/input/post.json?Node=1json={xxx}&apikey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

"http://192.168.1.105/emoncms/input/post.json?json={Node1xxx}&apikey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

at this stage I haven't got any actual data to play with and perhaps I should just use csv format is there any reason to choose one over the other?

any advice appreciated

Mike

I have now found out how to set the node in the json statement.

I would still like to know is there any reason to choose the json one over the csv input?

I'm not sure I can see much difference?

thanks

Mike
