Reply To: Starting OS from Data from Thingspeak

Ben,

The lines of code in my Python script that turn on the irrigation look like this:

import requests
    <snip>
    if min(SoilMoistureReadings) < WateringThreshold:
      #Manually start an OpenSprinkler program
      r = requests.get('http://127.0.0.1:8080/mp?pw=' + MD5_PW + '&pid=' + pid + '&uwt=' + uwt)

You’ll need to substitute your own values in – like the IP address of your OS. Does this help?
