How do I send sensor data through my X_NUCLEO_IDW01M1v2 to an HTML Form
How do I send sensor data through my X_NUCLEO_IDW01M1v2 to an HTML Form.
I'm trying to send data to a PHP website. I have that has a basic HTML post form. After the IDWO1M1v2 sends the data the website will take the data and insert it into a database. I've trimmed the form to listen for only one field and I was going to hard code the nucleo to send a static value once on connection.
I can't figure out where to start. It seems as though you'd want to use the httpClient library in conjunction with the IDW01m1v2 library.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

It depends on what version of mbed OS you want to use. If mbed OS2, then you can use https://os.mbed.com/teams/ST/code/X_NUCLEO_IDW01M1v2/, this library allows you to setup Wi-Fi connection and then pass data to your PHP server using socket_ functions provided by this library (look API reference and examples). If mbed OS5, import this to your project https://github.com/ARMmbed/wifi-x-nucleo-idw01m1, setup Wi-Fi connection, and then use TCPSocket to send your data, using SpwfSAInterface object as NetworkInterface instance.
