Simple Http Request to Retrieve Webs
Materials
AMB82-mini x 1
Example
In this example, we use Ameba to be a web client to retrieve information from the Internet.
First, make sure the correct Ameba development board is selected in “Tools” -> “Board”
Then open “File” -> “Examples” -> “WiFi” -> “SimpleHttpRequest”
In the sample code, modify the highlighted snippet and enter the required information (ssid, password, key index) required to connect to your WiFi network.
Upload the code and press the reset button on Ameba. Then you can see the information retrieved from Google is shown in the Arduino serial monitor.
Code Reference
To get the information of a WiFi connection: Use WiFi.SSID() to get
SSID of the current connected network.
Use WiFi.RSSI() to get the signal strength of the connection.
Use WiFi.localIP() to get the IP address of Ameba.
Use WiFiClient() to create a client.
Use client.connect() to connect to the IP address and port specified.
Use client.println() to print data followed by a carriage return and
newline.
Use client.available() to return the number of bytes available for
reading.
Use client.read() to read the next byte received from the server the
client is connected to.
Use client.stop() to disconnect from the server the client is
connected to.
