I post here the same post on the Sming GitHub repo.

"i'm just playing with Sming and wanted to control my GoPro Hero 3. I can connect to it
but I cannot forward messages.

I've founded the gopro commands and I'm implementing this:

HttpClient goPro as main object

than after connectionOK

goPro.downloadString("http://10.5.5.9/bacpac/SH?t=MYPASSWORD&p=%01",onDataSent);

but nothing happens. The string is correct and if I paste it on Chrome I can take a shot.
What I'm doing wrong?

Sorry if it sounds stupid, maybe I need to get more into Sming."


In addition I need to implement a mechanism where the ESP remains sleeping, it wake up, send the message and come back to sleep.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thanks

- Thu Mar 31, 2016 1:59 pm #44592 My opinion - you need do POST request to your GoPro.

- Sun May 08, 2016 1:26 am #47093 I haven't used the Sming framework but I'm successfully controlling my gopro using GET commands and this httpclient library.
