Hi there, I desperately need some help. I am looking for examples that I can download and look at, how it is done. Are any examples available?

I am trying to implement a type of thermostat mechanism, which it seems that lots of people are implementing, but I dont understand where the "Set temp to 55" is defined and returned to the thermostat.

Is there anywhere to go to get help for this?

You can have many datapoints in the same file, or do you mean recurrences of the same data point many times? What do you mean?
Same point many times, with different data-stamps.

Not in the present version of the module, but I agree that's an important feature. I will look into adding this and get back to you.
Seriously quick service, too bad it was not possible. When you are at it, will you consider to support many datapoints in the same file?

Further along those lines, I am looking for an option to attach a timestamp to the point, like it is possible with the HTTP reader by putting in the "&__time=20131225073000" at the end of the request.

Is it possible to put an extra field somewhere in the ascii file that contains the timestamp, and will be attached to the data-point-value.

My problem is that I might have a serious delay on the upload of data.
