Examples

Basic Publishing

We'll start with the basics of publishing. In this example, we make up a fake humidity value and publish it so it can be sent to beehive and other plugins.

import waggle.plugin as plugin
import time

plugin.init()

while True:
    # publish made up htu21d humidity value
    plugin.publish('env.humidity.htu21d', 12.34)
    time.sleep(1)
