Arduino temperature and humidity sensor with sending and plotting (Part 1)
Greenhouse part:
- Take temperature / humidity with DHT-11 sensor using pro micro
- Send fs1000a with pro micro
Home part:
- Accept values on mx-rm-5v with Uno
- Send to server using Ethernet shield (WIZNET W5100
HR911105A) - Write to mysql database
- Draw a graph (jpgraph)

He started a little out of order. For me, this sequence was more complicated, so I decided to implement it first.
The list of required packages is not huge and depends on the distribution, namely nginx, php-gd, php-mysql, mysql-server. For jpgraph, ttf fonts may be needed.
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
root /var/www/html;
location / {
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
# With php7.0-cgi alone:# fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;# With php7.0-fpm:
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_buffer_size 128k;
fastcgi_buffers 256 32k;
fastcgi_busy_buffers_size 256k;
fastcgi_temp_file_write_size 256k;
fastcgi_connect_timeout 1s;
fastcgi_ignore_client_abort off;
fastcgi_next_upstream timeout;
fastcgi_read_timeout 5m;
fastcgi_send_timeout 5m;
}
}
For uno, we need the following libraries:
SPI.h
Ethernet.h
DHT.h
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>
#include <DHT.h>
// MAC address for controller
byte mac[] = { 0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED };
//Адрес шилда
byte ip[] = { 192, 168, 156, 192 };
//Маска
byte subnet[] = { 255, 255, 255, 0 };
//Шлюз
byte gateway[] = { 192, 168, 0, 1 };
//Адрес сервера с базой
char server[] = "192.168.156.186";
#define DHTPIN 2
#define DHTTYPE DHT11
DHT dht(DHTPIN, DHTTYPE);
//Запуск клиента
EthernetClient client;
void setup()
{
dht.begin();
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial) {
; // wait for serial port to connect
}
{ Ethernet.begin(mac,ip,gateway,subnet);
}
// give the Ethernet shield a second to initialize
delay(1000);
}
void loop()
{
if (client.connect(server, 80))
{
// give the Ethernet shield a second to initialize
float h = dht.readHumidity();
float t = dht.readTemperature();
Serial.println("connected");
// Отправляем GET запрос с данными
client.println(String("GET /index.php?temp=")+ t +"&hum="+h);
client.println();
Serial.println("connection close");
} else Serial.println("connection failed");
delay(60000);
}The sketch sends a GET request to the script (index.php) every minute:
<?php
/**
* @param string $message
* @param PDOException|null $exception
*/
function writeMessage($message, $exception = null)
{
$logfile = '/var/www/html/data/arduino.log';
$datetime = date('d.m.Y H:i:s', time());
if ($exception !== null) {
$message .= ': ' . $exception->getFile() . ' (line: ' . $exception->getLine() . ') - ' . $exception->getMessage();
}
file_put_contents($logfile, '[' . $datetime . '] ' . $message."\n", FILE_APPEND);
}
/* Подключение к базе данных MySQL с помощью вызова драйвера */
$dsn = 'mysql:dbname=greenhouse;host=localhost';
$user = 'arduino';
$password = 'парол';
try {
$dbh = new PDO($dsn, $user, $password, [
PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION,
PDO::ATTR_DEFAULT_FETCH_MODE => PDO::FETCH_ASSOC,
PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND => 'SET NAMES utf8',
]);
} catch (PDOException $e) {
writeMessage('Произошла ошибка', $e);
}
try {
$sth = $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO data (sensor, temperature, humidity, created_at) VALUES (?, ?, ?, NOW())');
$sth->execute(['grass', $_REQUEST['temp'], $_REQUEST['hum']]);
} catch (PDOException $e) {
writeMessage('Произошла ошибка', $e);
}
which in turn sends values to the database:

`id`int(11) NOTNULL AUTO_INCREMENT,

Data in the database!
Install the JpGraph library ,
remove it in / var / www / src
Now we draw a graph (day.php):
<?php// content="text/plain; charset=utf-8"//define('__ROOT__', dirname(dirname()));require_once ('/var/www/src/jpgraph.php');
require_once ('/var/www/src/jpgraph_line.php');
require_once ('/var/www/src/jpgraph_error.php');
require_once ('/var/www/src/jpgraph_date.php');
$x_axis = array();
$y_axis = array();
$i = 0;
$con=mysqli_connect('localhost','arduino','парол','greenhouse');
$result = mysqli_query($con,"SELECT * FROM data");
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
$x_axis[$i] = strtotime($row["created_at"]);
$y_axis[$i] = $row["temperature"];
$i++;
}
mysqli_close($con);
$start = time();
$end = $start+NDATAPOINTS*SAMPLERATE;
for( $i=0; $i < NDATAPOINTS; ++$i ) {
$x_axis[$i] = rand(50,70);
$xdata[$i] = $start + $i * SAMPLERATE;
}
$graph = new Graph(1000,400);
$graph->img->SetMargin(50,30,30,80);
$graph->img->SetAntiAliasing();
$graph->SetScale('datlin');
$graph->xaxis->scale->SetDateFormat('d:m H:i');
$graph->SetShadow();
$graph->title->Set("Дневной график температуры");
$graph->xaxis->title->Set('время');
$graph->xaxis->SetLabelAngle(45);
$graph->yaxis->title->Set('температура');
$graph->xaxis->scale->SetTimeAlign(DAYADJ_1);
$graph->title->SetFont(FF_TIMES,FS_BOLD);
// Use 20% "grace" to get slightly larger scale then min/max of// data
$graph->yscale->SetGrace(0);
$p1 = new LinePlot($y_axis,$x_axis);
$p1->mark->SetType(MARK_FILLEDCIRCLE);
$p1->mark->SetFillColor("red");
$p1->mark->SetWidth(4);
$p1->SetColor("blue");
$p1->SetCenter();
$graph->Add($p1);
$graph->Stroke();
We get this beauty:

That's all for the moment. Now I am working on setting up a bundle of two boards on a radio channel, which I will write about in the second part.
