ThingSpeak and Xively plugins not working

[haydnw]

ThingSpeak and Xively output plugins are not currently working when enabled in outputs.cfg. Reasons unclear as yet.

Hi Haydn,
i see you found the elusive bug : )
i have noticed that since the last update the plugin loads properly, but im having an issue with the new one as well, its printing out a xively Error "title":"Unprocessable Entitity","errors":Datastream is invalid", but on xively i notice the requests are being made .
The Thingspeak module also seems to load properly, but i cant see any changes on the web feed .

thanx!

Hi Haydn, after so many other tests i figured out why that error appears, it seems Xively does not like a space character in the name of the sensor, so to fix it, i edited the dht22.py file and replaced "Relative Humidity" with "Relative_Humidity" and its now working like a charm, still havent got around ThingSpeak.
thanx!

Thanks. Did you replace every instance of "Relative Humidity" in the dht22.py file? I'll have a look at this over the next couple of days. The last big feature is just being finalised (outputting averaged data over a time period, instead of instantaneous readings) and so I'll have some time to focus on these bugs then.

hi, yes all of them.
Thats great, im doing some modifications myself, if there is anything community-worthy ill send a shout ;)

I would be interested in any working code you have. I use this to trigger a tweet to tell me when to change the dehumidifier bucket based on the humidity!

Fixed some time ago (sorry for not closing in a more timely manner!)
