Can I use Ticker with a function that returns a value? Starting with an IO.Adafruit publish example, I use millis() to check if 30s has elapsed and then I call a function that reads a DHT22 sensor and publishes three values to io.adafruit.com. Works great (even if the DHT22 is occasionally flaky). I have a while() that loops if bad data was returned, with a delay(100). On a 0 return, I go do something else. I also subscribe to a toggle to turn and LED on and off and would like to publish the state of the LED back to io.adafruit so I can tell if the remote toggle actually worked. If the toggle subscription notification arrives while the DHT22 is being read out, the LED is not toggled.
I'd like to eliminate the millis() and use Ticker.
I am at the learning-experiment phase here.
Suggestions?
