I'm using ArduinoJSON to write a couple of data points to my EEPROM on Arduino Uno. I'm running into a problem with getGroundedPR
where I need to convert a uint8_t to a char to pass retrieved data into my JSON parser.
This is my first time using EEPROM so I'm willing to bet there's a better way to do this. Should I continue to use JSON or is there a better way? I'm being cautious of the 10k write limit (give or take) on the EEPROM.
the EEPROM read/write is commented out until I have my process nailed down
void IMUController::setGroundedPR(double p, double r) {
Serial.print("Setting IMU ground: ");
StaticJsonBuffer<200> jsonBuffer;
JsonObject& root = jsonBuffer.createObject();
root["pitch"] = p;
root["roll"] = r;
root.printTo(Serial);
char buffer[256];
root.printTo(buffer, sizeof(buffer));
Serial.println();
// EEPROM.write(EEPROM_ADDRESS_IMU_GROUNDED, buffer);
}
double* IMUController::getGroundedPR() {
double ret[2] = {0, 0};
StaticJsonBuffer<200> jsonBuffer;
uint8_t json_saved = EEPROM.read(EEPROM_ADDRESS_IMU_GROUNDED);
char json[] = "asdf"; // convert json_saved to char here
JsonObject& root = jsonBuffer.parseObject(json);
if(!root.success()) {
// return the result
ret[0] = (double)root["pitch"];
ret[1] = (double)root["roll"];
return ret;
}
return ret;
}
