Kit includes:
Creat an acount on shiftr.io, and follow the instructions on the getting started page to create a new namespace and a new token.
Update the folowing line with your Key and Password before uploading the following code to the MKR1000:
while (!client.connect("arduino", "Your Key here ", "Your Password Here"))
// This example uses an Arduino/Genuino Zero together with // a WiFi101 Shield or a MKR1000 to connect to shiftr.io. // // IMPORTANT: This example uses the new WiFi101 library. // // You can check on your device after a successful // connection here: https://shiftr.io/try. // // by Gilberto Conti // https://github.com/256dpi/arduino-mqtt #include <WiFi101.h> #include <MQTTClient.h> const char ssid[] = "BRIDGE"; const char pass[] = "internet"; WiFiClient net; MQTTClient client; unsigned long lastMillis = 0; void setup() { Serial.begin(115200); WiFi.begin(ssid, pass); // Note: Local domain names (e.g. "Computer.local" on OSX) are not supported by Arduino. // You need to set the IP address directly. client.begin("broker.shiftr.io", net); client.onMessage(messageReceived); connect(); } void connect() { Serial.print("checking wifi..."); while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) { Serial.print("."); delay(1000); } Serial.print("\nconnecting..."); while (!client.connect("arduino", "Your Key here", "Your Password Here")) { Serial.print("."); delay(1000); } Serial.println("\nconnected!"); // client.subscribe("/hello"); // client.unsubscribe("/hello"); } void loop() { client.loop(); if (!client.connected()) { connect(); } // publish a message roughly every second. if (millis() - lastMillis > 100) { lastMillis = millis(); client.publish("/value", String(analogRead(0))); } } void messageReceived(String &topic, String &payload) { Serial.println("incoming: " + topic + " - " + payload); }
Download the MQTT plugin for Grasshopper , and place all three files in the grasshopper components folder (you can find this with the GrasshopperFolders command). Restart Rhino and Grasshoper.
Place an MQTT and a Timer component on to the canvas. The Broker URI input should recieve the URI for your shiftr.io key.
