How to send data to Adafruit.io?

[rjcorwin]

Hi Todd. I didn't realize this library was a CLI until jwcooper pointed it out here. I had been building my own CLI just for sending data.

I'm attempting to create new data but not seeing any in the abc feed that I created. Am I doing this correctly?

$ echo '42' | adafruit-io client data create abc
? data.value (optional): 42
? data.lat (optional):
$ echo '42' | adafruit-io client data send abc
? data.value (optional): 42
? data.lat (optional):

I configured doing ...

$ adafruit-io client config --username rjsteinert --key xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

@rjsteinert try this:

$ adafruit-io client feeds write abc

Hi Todd - Thanks for the reply. I tried this twice...

echo 42 | adafruit-io client feeds write abc

This is what I see on the other end.

And then doing this, things get even more strange...

Then I tried a new feed efg (that does not yet exist).

And I see I now have two efg feeds with the data spread out between the two.

Creating a new hij feed via the UI first and then using the command looks like it works as expected.
