Apple Client - mikeh - 2019-03-05
would anyone be able to share their knowledge of connecting an app to the rpi as a client? I would like to build an app that displays Engine data but am unable to connect to the rpi server. I am using the signal k script for apple since javascript into the Android base code is not clear to me. The code provided by signal K for apple client was used and cocoa pods were installed correctly shown on the following link.
https://github.com/SignalK/signalk-apple-client
host used is: "10-1-1-40.local"
port used is: 3000
why would the error code: "Request timed out" keep appearing? Running 10.10.10.1:3000 into my browser opens up signalk. Also, is there better instruction for running a client to retrieve data in an Android app then is provided by SignalK website?
cheers

The error message sounds like you are trying to reach some other server than what you think.
The server’s api is just http and WebSocket, can’t you just google these and the programming language you are using? Java, Kotlin, Swift, ObjC? To get data by http or stream via ws should be very easy in any language. The advantage of a dedicated client library comes with more complicated stuff, for example access requests and authorization in general.

For future reference, this code has got me a response from the raspberry pi. It still needs refinement:
build.gradle:
