3-Inkplate_VariPass_Graphs example for e-radionica Inkplate6
For this example you will need a micro USB cable, Inkplate6, and an available WiFi connection.
Select "Inkplate 6(ESP32)" from Tools -> Board menu.
Don't have "Inkplate 6(ESP32)" option? Follow our tutorial and add it:
https://e-radionica.com/en/blog/add-inkplate-6-to-arduino-ide/
This example will show you how you can use the API on the VariPass website to download and display
a sensor graph on the e-paper display.
VariPass is a website which allows you to host various online "variables" which you can write to
and read from using the VariPass API. This allows you to store sensor logs and later retrieve them
for graphing, analysis, etc.
This example uses an already public variable as an example. The graph is fed every minute with data
from Thorinair's (https://github.com/Thorinair/) geiger counter, so each startup of the Inkplate will
display updated values.
To learn more about VariPass and how you can use it for your own projects, please visit: https://varipass.org/
If you want to easily integrate the read/write functionality in your project, use the official library:

//Use a HTTP get request to fetch the graph from VariPass.
//The API expects a few parameters in the URL to allow it to work.
// action - Should be set to "sgraph" or "graph" in order to generate a compatible image.
// id - ID of the variable. It is enough to specify just the ID if the variable is public,
// but a "key" parameter should also be specified if not.
// width - Width of the generated graph, here set to half the Inkplate's width.
// height - Height of the generated graph, here set to half the Inkplate's height.
// eink - Should be set to true to generate a monochrome 1 bit bitmap better suitable for Inkplate.
// For more detailed explanation and more parameters, please visit the docs page: https://varipass.org/docs/
