Help With Json and Oled

[Jonny190]

Hi Guys

Having issues parsing JSON in the below scetch:

Code: Select all

#include <Arduino.h>

#include <WiFi.h>
#include <WiFiMulti.h>

#include <HTTPClient.h>

#include <ArduinoJson.h>

#include "SSD1306.h" // alias for `#include "SSD1306Wire.h"`

#define USE_SERIAL Serial

SSD1306  display(0x3c, 5, 4);

WiFiMulti wifiMulti;

JsonBuffer is too small to parse payload.

Yes, that can be useful, for an estimate.

The two problems in the original post are the use of StaticJsonBuffer and too small size. Unfortunately, the response from the server is too large to use StaticJsonBuffer, it overflows the stack. The server returns about 6800 bytes, the Json buffer needs to be bigger than that, exactly how much bigger depends on the actual content in the response.

Using DynamicJsonBuffer, you don't need to know the size, and in many or most real-world cases, you can't know the size. DynamicJsonBuffer will almost always consume more heap than is actually needed, so it's especially important to make sure it goes out of scope, so its destructor will free the memory.

StaticJsonBuffer is great for smaller Json strings, of known size.
