It is an upgrade to our previous article to control ESP32 Arduino LED from IBM Watson IoT. We already talked about Android Apps for Watson IoT for this purpose. We already have an article to use relay with Arduino. Our linked relay guide should be enough for anyone to understand how to use relay and AC connections. These relay modules will create mechanical clicking sound like switch. My relay works with 3.3v of ESP32 (it is rated for 5v) when controlled from internet/smartphone, however the pushbutton makes the thing puzzled.

Look at our repository for code, you will realize that we have two separate cURL commands to send the LED/Relay to on and off :
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
# turns the device on curl -u <use-the-API-Key>:<use-auth-token> -H "Content-Type: text/plain" -v -X POST http://<your org>.messaging.internetofthings.ibmcloud.com:1883/api/v0002/application/types/<yourDeviceType>/devices/<yourDeviceId>/commands/gpio -d "on" # turn the device off curl -u <use-the-API-Key>:<use-auth-token> -H "Content-Type: text/plain" -v -X POST http://<your org>.messaging.internetofthings.ibmcloud.com:1883/api/v0002/application/types/<yourDeviceType>/devices/<yourDeviceId>/commands/gpio -d "off" |
There is a nice free application named “HTTP Request Shortcuts” :
|
1 2 3 |
# https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.rmy.android.http_shortcuts&hl=en_US # |
It has the option to import cURL commands.
Place shortcuts (widgets) on your home screen to submit HTTP requests to all your favourite RESTful APIs, web services and other URL resources. It has the option to add custom icons for shortcuts too. It is designed to control your home automation system and IoT devices using Raspberry Pi and Arduino. Most importantly, the app is open source, it is available on GitHub:

# https://github.com/Waboodoo/HTTP-Shortcuts # |
You can fork the repo, customize the app on Android Studio and develop your custom version.
