Hello friends,

0.- Board D1 R32 ESP32.

Search images: D1 R32 ESP32

I have done several tutorials with the ESP32:

In this tutorial we are going to see how to send and receive data to/from FireBaseDB with App Inventor and ESP32.

1.- Register in FireBase.

  • Add Project.
  • Project settings / Service accounts / Database secrets.
  • Create database.
  • Rules.

You can look this process in:

4.- ESP32 sends status of two PushButtons to App Inventor.

  • PushButtons have no resistance because they are configured as pinMode INPUT_PULLUP

@Juan_Antonio,

Seeing this tutorial of yours is like I am having a birthday gift or christmas present :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Thanks keep it coming,

Hi @Juan_Antonio,
Could you please complete the tutorial? In step 12 of the tutorial, “Start in test mode” was chosen for testing, in this mode there was “Your security rules are defined as public, so anyone can steal, modify, or delete data in your database.”
Screenshot 2020-06-11 at 4.43.30 PM
Once the testing is done and the user wants to change mode in “Start in locked mode”, do you have any steps, this could be a couple of instructions bur for the new guys, this seems to be a show stopper.

Thanks,
Ragna

hi Ragne ..
did you get update or a link to authentication steps i can use in mit app and arduino ?
than you

Hello Juan
I want to get numeric value from app inventor to esp..But couldn't.
stringValue=Firebase.RTDB.getString(&fbdo, "test/set");
set=stringValue.toInt();

Can you help me

11

This works

String stringValue = " 12.34 ";
int my_value = stringValue.toInt(); // 12

What do you get?
stringValue=Firebase.RTDB.getString(&fbdo, "test/set");
Serial.println(stringValue);

12

String is small square like this :white_large_square:. When I convert it to int zero 0.
I want to get this

Check my tutorial

....
 Firebase.begin("https://kio4-3c240.firebaseio.com/", "1lzi12VLgSecreto_de_la_base_de_datos");
}

void loop() {
  if (Firebase.getString(firebaseData, "/ESP32/LED12")) {
      String message12_fb = firebaseData.stringData();
      if (message12_fb != message12) {
        message12 = message12_fb;
        Serial.println(message12);
        if(message12.indexOf("Set LED12 ON") != -1){digitalWrite(LED12, HIGH);}
        if(message12.indexOf("Set LED12 OFF") != -1){digitalWrite(LED12, LOW);}
      }
    }
...

if(Firebase.RTDB.getString(&fbdo, "test/set")){
stringValue = fbdo.stringData();
if(stringValue_fb != stringValue)
{
stringValue=stringValue_fb;
Serial.print("stringValue =");
Serial.println(stringValue);
}

And result is this

if(Firebase.RTDB.getString(&fbdo, "/test/set")){
if (fbdo.dataType() == "string") {
stringValue = fbdo.stringData();
set=stringValue.toInt();
Serial.println(stringValue);
}

It s done. Thank you brother

Now I need help with another problem. I want to change the "set" value with rotary encoder that I got from Firebase and change it with slider on app inventor .
So I want to change this "set" value with both rotary encoder and slider in app inventor. Whichever changed it last, it will be the set value.
I'm trying to do it with this piece of code but I couldn't.
if(millis() > Time_set){
Serial.print("Point1 ");
State = digitalRead(Apin); // Reads the "current" state of the clock pin
// If the previous and the current state of the clock are different, that means a step has occured
if (State != LastState){
Serial.print("Point2 ");
// If the data state is different to the clock state, that means the encoder is rotating clockwise
if (digitalRead(Bpin) != State) {
counter ++;
} else {
counter --;
}
Serial.print("Position: ");
Serial.println(counter);
}
LastState = State; // Updates the previous state of the clock with the current state
Time_set = getStartTime(2000);
}
