Thanks a lot Sir @zenofmud, that's so generous. I will let you know if I need it.

Hello, i'm receiving an error message: "SyntaxError: Unexpected token S in JSON at position 0" unless i'm getting ride of the JSON node then i get this: Size: 8
{ "cardUID": "550f24d9","cardtype":"MIFARE 1KB" }
I'm wondering why this: _"Size: 8"_
Any comments? Thanks

A little more information would be helpful...where are you seeing this error?
can you identify the node issuing it?
Where is the data originally coming from?
what does the data coming out of the originating node look like?
What does the flow look ike? Maybe provide it???

Hi Zeno, thanks for answering
- error in Debug node
- Issuing node: RFIDReader from: [https://github.com/mxgxw/MFRC522-python](https://github.com/mxgxw/MFRC522-python)
- the flow is here:

Thanks again, David

Have you looked at the open issues about the python code you are running? (See github)

My point was that there are a bunch of issues. You are trying to use code from a couple years ago that hasn't been updated and people are reporting errors with. So you have the choice of diging in and fixing the code or do what you want anothr way.

Ciao, potresti inviarmi lo schema per wemos e il codice? Grazie

Ne sarei felice, ma ci vorrĂ del tempo. Devo scavare e potrebbe volerci un giorno o due.

I used the `MFRC522` library at [https://github.com/miguelbalboa/rfid](https://github.com/miguelbalboa/rfid) and you will find many examples there. For Node-RED, you just use an `mqtt-in` node to receive the message being sent by the WeMos.
Here is the `RFID-RC522 to WeMos` wiring diagram I used.

Ho usato la libreria `MFRC522` su [https://github.com/miguelbalboa/rfid](https://github.com/miguelbalboa/rfid) e lì troverai molti esempi. Per Node-RED, si usa semplicemente un nodo `mqtt-in` per ricevere il messaggio inviato da WeMos.
Ecco lo schema di cablaggio da `RFID-RC522 a WeMos` che ho usato.
