How to send sane messages? (with cayenneLLP) about enigmaiot HOT 5 CLOSED

In a3e0439 E've added an option to EnigmaIOTConfig.h to control status sending after data here

from enigmaiot.

if you are going to work with json objects I recommend you
enigmaiot_node_msgpack.ino
that example sends messages as you expect.
you can even send values ​​in array (for DHT22 for example).

float humidity = dht.getHumidity();
  float temperature = dht.getTemperature();

  String sensor = String(temperature) + ";" + String (humidity) + ";0"; // dummy data for domoticz

  json["idx"] = 5;
  json["nvalue"] = 0;
  json["svalue"] = sensor;

  int len = measureMsgPack (json) + 1;
	uint8_t* buffer = (uint8_t*)malloc (len);
	len = serializeMsgPack (json, (char*)buffer, len);
	Serial.printf ("Message Len %d\n", len);
	Serial.printf ("Trying to send: %s\n", printHexBuffer (buffer, len));
	// Send buffer data
	if (!EnigmaIOTNode.sendData (buffer, len, MSG_PACK)) {
		Serial.println ("---- Error sending data");
	} else {
		Serial.println ("---- Data DHT22 sent");
	}
	free (buffer);

The channel, type, etc is how CayenneLLP treats the messages, before the msgpack I used the channel as idx in domoticz.

About status messages I'm not sure but I think they can be disabled in
espnow_hall.h

@dgcasana Yes I mentioned that in my post and asked about Cayenne encoding there as well.

Also DHT22 doesn't measure humidity correctly, can be off 3-20%, you should use SHT31, SHT35, SHT85 or BME280 (if you want pressure)
DHT and AHT sensors aren't usable for anything other than temperature. Do not buy them.

& thanks for the status message, I saw it in there but was hoping there was a better setting than commenting out code.
/e actually nvm I don't see where it can actually be disabled just in that file

CayenneLPP to JSON conversion is done by CayenneLPP library so I've attached to its format. You can check an example here https://github.com/ElectronicCats/CayenneLPP/blob/master/examples/Decode/Decode.ino

You can use that and process it after receiving MQTT message.

EnigmaIOTNode example shows how to manage CayenneLPP data.

If you need specific JSON format, then it is better to use MsgPack.

I do not remember if status data can be disabled. Anyway you can subscribe to g/1/data instead g/1/# to get only data messages. I'll check if there is any setting in EnitmaIOTConfig.h to control that feature. I will add it if does not exist.

Actually looks like the channel stuff is some specific design of cayenneLPP, some reason the extra messages are added (idc enough to check why) but it's just extra useless data so I guess I'll have to use msgpack.
