ESP8266 Community Forum

- Fri May 29, 2015 8:52 am #18864 I would like to collect data coming from an external device from UART and post them on thingspeak.com using only ESP8266 module. Data are separated with commas. I've found examples about reading data from a sensor and post them to a website but I havent' found up to now an example of reading a stream from ESP8266 (with LUA firmware) UART. Is it available a function such as UART_read()? Where can I find documentation on UART commands?

Thanks in advance
