Moisture sensing + relay. Please help with software.

[Fat Fly]

My skill in programming is low. I make something for last 2.x library but some errors. Moisture sensors A0-A5 and if possible add relays from relay sketch.

I want to add same harware these two components.

[gohan]

Sure, just copy code from the relay and add it to the sketch you are using, just change child ID for relay so it doesn't conflict with the other from the sensor you are using already.

[Fat Fly]

I try but without luck.

[gohan]

Ok, but what is the problem you are experiencing? You need to provide code and errors if you want some help

The include mysensors.h needs to go after the defines, otherwise it can not know how you want the gateway to behave

[Fat Fly]

Line 84 a function-definition is not allowed here before '{' token
I put these 2 line with include after defines.

I think you forgot to close a parenthesis in the receive function. If you like a more helping programming interface, you can install visual studio and the extension Visual Micro that are much better than Arduino IDE and help you also visually with parenthesis and auto completion of functions and variables names.

I use linux. Ubuntu. For linux what software ?

[gohan]

Maybe eclipse, but I'm not much into Linux, sorry.

Here is some code that does exactly what was asked for:
