iOS app in TestFlight

[rogiernl]

Brilliant work on this! I made a basic app for iOS on top of your API. Also leveraged the MQTT integration in influx for more solid data: https://testflight.apple.com/join/wYTte6sP

Hi,

This looks absolutely wonderful <3 . I'll update the readme and add a section with apps and integrations. Keep me posted once you take it out of testflight so that I can add the proper url.

We'll also keep you posted in regards to issue #14 . Once we added the names we'll update the api and add it to the mqtt data :)

Hi,

Api and mqtt data now has the probe name included:

[
  {
    "probe_id": 1,
    "temperature": 25.96154,
    "name": "Probe 1",
    "minimum_temperature": 160,
    "target_temperature": 120,
    "connected": true,
    "probe_type": "grilleye_iris",
    "reference_kohm": 100,
    "reference_celcius": 25,
    "reference_beta": 4250
  },
  {
    "probe_id": 2,
    "temperature": 0,
    "name": "Probe 2",
    "minimum_temperature": 0,
    "target_temperature": 94,
    "connected": false,
    "probe_type": "grilleye_iris",
    "reference_kohm": 100,
    "reference_celcius": 25,
    "reference_beta": 4250
  },
  {

Cool! Do you have screenshots? Any plans to open-source it?

@rogiernl Is there a way to install the app?

[rogiernl]

Will rework it a little and push it as a public repo

@rogiernl can you maybe give an update?

[rogiernl]

New TestFlight; considering uploading it to actual AppStore. The potential mess with original manufacturer held me back.

[hollanderbart]

Ok the installation works. How does the Influx works? Is there a way to store the data on a Home Assistant instance for example?

[rogiernl]

Yes but that is already part of the actual firmware on the device. This just leverages that schema.

[hollanderbart]

I don't see any data appearing in the app. How do I setup the app so it can read the data? The IP for the GrillEye is known, but I don't know the Influx details...

[rogiernl]

Influx is not required to use the app. Just makes the stats and graphs more rigid when not in foreground. Will test it more thoroughly when I'm home again.

[hollanderbart]

It works now. I had to close the app and restart again. A pop-up appeared where I had to approve searching for nearby devices. After that was done, the probe is visible. Thanks!

If you need help in developing the app, I'm willing to support.

[rogiernl]

I pushed a lot of changes lately, hope you like them @hollanderbart! They will be released into full App Store soon!
