  Pachube sensor client with Strings

 This sketch connects an analog sensor to Pachube (http://www.pachube.com)
 using a Wiznet Ethernet shield. You can use the Arduino Ethernet shield, or
 the Adafruit Ethernet shield, either one will work, as long as it's got
 a Wiznet Ethernet module on board.

 This example has been updated to use version 2.0 of the pachube.com API. 
 To make it work, create a feed with two datastreams, and give them the IDs
 sensor1 and sensor2. Or change the code below to match your feed.

 This example uses the String library, which is part of the Arduino core from
 version 0019.  

 Circuit:
 * Analog sensor attached to analog in 0
 * Ethernet shield attached to pins 10, 11, 12, 13

Pachube Client

This example shows you how to answer a HTTP request using an Ethernet shield. Specifically, it connects to pachube.com, a free datalogging site. The example requires that you set up a pachube.com account, as well as a pachube feed (for more information on setting up an input feed, please click here). Your Ethernet shield will then connect to that feed and upload sensor data every 10 seconds.

Additionally, this example shows how to send sensor data as a string.

(:div class=BOM :)

Hardware Required

• Arduino Ethernet Shield
• Shield-compatible Arduino board
• One analog sensor to attach to the Ethernet Shield

Software Required

• pachube.com account
• pachube.com feed that accepts one data item

Circuit

(:div class=circuit :)

The Ethernet shield allows you to connect a WizNet Ethernet controller to the Arduino via the SPI bus. It uses pins 10, 11, 12, and 13 for the SPI connection to the WizNet. Later models of the Ethernet shield also have an SD Card on board. Digital pin 4 is used to control the slave select pin on the SD card.

The shield should be connected to a network with an ethernet cable. You will need to change the network settings in the program to correspond to your network.
