Showing AIO data on a Pyportal Moderators: adafruit_support_bill, adafruit

[axelmagnus]

Hi there.

Circuitpython/Pyportal is great at fetching data and displaying them.
For months i have tried to find a solution to fetch and display my own AIO data on the pyportal. I fail. It seems like a natural request? what have i missed?

Hi Axelmagnus,

Could you include the code you're attempting to use for fetching/displaying your Adafruit IO Data on the PyPortal. I'll take a look at it :)

Hi Axelmagnus,

Well, no, since i dont know what to use (total noob). But i figure its a request of some sort, like here:

https://io.adafruit.com/api/docs/?pytho ... -feed-data

or here:

https://io.adafruit.com/api/docs/?python#get-feed-data

[axelmagnus]

that is, some kind of JSON request that fetches the data.

[axelmagnus]

OK, so here i have some code that i tried. I found it at

https://circuitpython.readthedocs.io/pr ... e_all_data

which has you as author:). Now, i use receive_all_data

Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE

Well, i ran this and it hung after

I did something else for a while and then after a long long time i got a response!

but now im hung again. How is this possible? I just had to copy it in here, because i still cant believe it.

Sometimes i get this error:

We did recently change the socket recv implementation in the Adafruit CircuitPython Requests library to use recv_into instead of recv. What you are seeing may be a result of an error within the updated Adafruit Requests library attempting to retrieve chunked JSON data.

Could you please file an issue on https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Ci ... sts/issues including as much as you can, as well as a link to this topic?

[axelmagnus]

done! i dont know what to name it:
https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Ci ... /issues/37

[axelmagnus]

Ok small update.
If i use receive_data, it works:

Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE

print("Retrieving new Adafruit IO feed...")
specified_feed = io.receive_data("lora-batteryvoltage")
print(specified_feed)

Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE

Auto-reload is on. Simply save files over USB to run them or enter REPL to disable.
code.py output:
Retrieving new Adafruit IO feed...
Socket missing recv_into. Using more memory to be compatible

But it takes a long time, over a minute to get the one latest datapoint.

[Buddahaid]

I've just run into this trying to get any of the Pyportal Pynt examples that use get_local_time to run. They all error out starting with socket missing recv_into.

[axelmagnus]

So, i keep investigating and leaving my experiences here.

request_all_data hasnt worked again
i try to get the last data only, and this works. Once

Then it throws this error (Failed to send??):

I've just run into this trying to get any of the Pyportal Pynt examples that use get_local_time to run. They all error out starting with socket missing recv_into.

Have you seen this:
viewtopic.php?f=60&t=169654

No I haven't. I followed that and I no longer have the recv_into error but I still have a problem getting the local time to load. Errors out stating invalid API key provided. Too bad as I thought it would be solved.

Thanks for the link.

[Buddahaid]

I forgot to mention that error is generated from the adafruit_pyportal.mpy library file.

[HarpDude]

I'm also seeing this error when using the PyPortal library's push_to_io() function.
