Hello

I am looking at a new project where I need to take data from a website and display it via an LCD probably via wifi or ethernet.

If I were to say use the BLO136-1 breakout, are there any tutorials I can use to figure out how I can get the data from a website and display it?

Thanks
Graham

Hi Graham,

This might be of help, although it's mainly server examples, which is the opposite of what you want...

Also try searching the forum with "http get request"

Hello,

Are you using Flowcode? If you are then which version?

Flowcode 8 has a new Network Comms abstraction layer that makes this type of thing very easy and will work with the simulation.

Though support for the BL0136 needs to be added to the abstraction component and thoroughly tested. Currently the only fully featured targets for the abstraction are the Sim and the RPi.

We also have an Ethernet EB2 board due for release very shortly which will also eventually work with the abstraction layer.

Thanks Ben and Leigh

I have too many projects on at the moment so we have decided to set it out as a freelance viewtopic.php?f=32&t=20490

Its something I want to get to know more about in the future but things are just a bit busy at the moment.

Thanks
