redux 2: simple python example?

Post by lcoffin »

This topic was apparently raised over a year ago, but appears not to have been addressed... earlier posts are:

As mentioned in these previous posts, apparently the documentation for using Adafruit IO have not been kept up to date with the changes to the API/site functionality. The basic code listed in the Quickstart section does not work (error given in previous posts):

https://adafruit-io-python-client.readt ... start.html

This was very frustrating to encounter as someone trying to use Adafruit IO for the first time. In my case, I was able to dig through some of the other examples and figure out what was missing/wrong, but it is probably going to be a hard stop for a lot of people who are new to coding/IOT/etc. and thought Adafruit IO would be a good place to start.
