IoT-Lab: the firmware

Now that the hardware is set up and you have successfully run the Hello, world! sketch, it is time to bring the real firmware on the device, to make it do something useful.

Instructions

  1. Copy the sketch folder from this repository src/sketches/order_button to your sketchbook location of your Arduino IDE (usually located in the Arduino/ folder in your homedir. Check File > Preferences > Sketchbook location in the Arduino IDE). Your Arduiono folder should now look like the following:
   +--Arduino                   Arduino sketchbook location
      +--libraries              Library folder
         +--PubSubClient        The MQTT client libraray
      +--order_button           sketch folder for the order button
        +--order_button.ino     Main file
        +--config.h-dist        config.h template
        +--PushButton.h         source files ...
        +--DigitalOutput.h      
        +--...
  1. copy the file config.h-dist to a new file named config.h
  2. browse through the source code of the order_button.ino and config.h files and fix the marked parts (i.e. parts marked with /*FIXME*/)
  3. compile and upload the sketch. Carefully watch for errors.

Congratulations, you have successfully compiled and put the firmware on the device! Now it is time for some testing.

Next: Testing the device
