Posted: Thu Jan 26, 2017 7:51 pmHi all
What's the best way to receive a string (softserial) from a nextion display and then deciding what to do?
At the moment I'm using if - else if - else if....
What's the best way to this sort of thing?

Code: Select all
void loop() {
//String message = myNextion.listen(); //check for message
parseNexMsg(myNextion.listen());
if(nexChange){
// Serial.println(int(nexPage));
// Serial.println(int(nexButton));
updateNexData();
updateNexPage(nexPage, nexButton);
nexChange = FALSE;
}
//Start main temp log
if (USELED) digitalWrite(LEDPin, HIGH);
if(millis() - mills > 10000){
mills= millis();
// Main code... Code: Select all
void parseNexMsg(String msg){
if (msg == "65 0 1 0 ff ff ff") { //Main page button pressed
nexPage = 1;
nexButton = 3;
nexChange = TRUE;
ckAVgTemp(hourAvg[0][minute()]);
ckAVgTemp(hourAvg[1][minute()]);
}else if (msg == "65 0 3 0 ff ff ff") { //Graph page button pressed
nexPage = 3;
nexButton = 0;
nexChange = TRUE;
}else if (msg == "65 1 b 1 ff ff ff") { //humidity button on main
nexPage = 1;
nexButton = 2;
nexChange = TRUE;
}else if (msg == "65 1 c 1 ff ff ff") { //top temp button on main
