Hello Everyone!
I'll begin by saying that this community is awesome
providing wonderful and insightful information to noobs such as myself. Please bare with me as this is a long post.
GOAL: Send Data from an attached sensor to the ESP8266-01 to a WebServer and store that information in a mySQL DB running on the WebServer. I wanted to do everything from scratch, So I went ahead and half-assed my way through setting up a simple WebServer on my Laptop using WAMP (actually still in the process of finishing, I'll come back to this later).
PROGRESS: I have downloaded Arduino IDE support for ESP8266 and uploaded the following code on the ESP8266-01:
***********************************************************************************************
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
const char* ssid = "ssid";
const char* password = "password";
void setup(){
Serial.begin(115200);
delay(10);
WiFi.begin(ssid,password);
while(WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED){
delay(500);
Serial.println(".");
Serial.println("Connected to ");
Serial.println(ssid);
}
}
void loop(){
Serial.println("Hello, Internet");
delay(1000);
Serial.println("IP Address");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
delay(2000);
}
***********************************************************************************************
With the above code running on the ESP8266-01 I am able to have the Chip connect to my SSID on bootup (I was also able to attach a Sensor to GPIO2 for collecting Analog Data, but kept the code out for simplification)
NEED HELP: Now we come to the reason why I've been pulling my hair for the past few weeks, Not knowing any HTML,PHP or Web programming I was able to understand the basics and created a simple Webpage, However I wasn't able to setup a mySQL DB where the incoming Data from ESP8266 will be stored, and nor have I any clue as to how to get he ESP8266 to SEND Data to the WebServer.
TO SUMMARIZE: PLEASE HELP WITH THE FOLLWOING
1) Sample code that allows the ESP8266 to SEND Data to a Webserver
2) Documentaiton/Guide for setting up a WebServer using WAMP and accepting the incoming Data from the ESP8266 and store that Data in a mySQL DB.
Would appreciate Help of any Sort. Be it Documentation/Videos/Tutorials/Guides etc.
Thanks Again for taking the time to Help.
Best
