talk to adafruit io from Go

A go client library for talking to your io.adafruit.com account.

Requires go version 1.2 or better. Running tests requires the github.com/stretchr/testify library, which can be installed with:

$ go get github.com/stretchr/testify

Usage

import "github.com/adafruit/io-client-go"

The io-client-go repository provides the adafruitio package.

Authentication for Adafruit IO is managed by providing your Adafruit IO token in the head of all web requests via the X-AIO-Key header. This is handled for you by the client library, which expects you API Token when it is initialized.

We recommend keeping the Token in an environment variable to avoid including it directly in your code.

client := adafruitio.NewClient(os.Getenv("ADAFRUIT_IO_KEY"))
feeds, _, err := adafruitio.Feed.All()

Some API calls expect parameters, which must be provided when making the call.

feed := &aio.Feed{Name: "my-new-feed"}
client.Feed.Create(newFeed)

Data related API calls expect a Feed to be set before the call is made.

NOTE: the Feed doesn't have to exist yet if you're using the Data.Send() method, but it still needs to be set. If you're relying on the Data API to create the Feed, make sure you set the Key attribute on the new Feed.

feed := &aio.Feed{Name: "My New Feed", Key: "my-new-feed"}
client.SetFeed(newFeed)
client.Data.Send(&adafruitio.Data{Value: 100})
