I have an 8266 that successfully connects to a webserver. The LUA code is this:
which connects to a file called 8266-boot.php on the server that contains this:
This works great at sending data from the 8266 to the server and the data is saved to the local file just as you'd expect. But I can't get anything sent back to the 8266.
On the 8266, I have a line conn:on("receive", function(conn, payload) print(payload) end)
which is supposed to catch stuff sent by the server and print it on the 8266 serial port. It doesn't.
Can someone please suggest what I need to add to the PHP file to send data back to the 8266. I'm hoping the replies will be of the form:
"just add this line ..... to your PHP file".
With thanks
Pete
Code: Select all
function sendData()

conn=net.createConnection(net.TCP, 0)
conn:on("receive", function(conn, payload) print(payload) end)
conn:connect(80,"192.168.1.40") -- local server: corv
