Node-red + Sentilo = Error

General
1

Hello,

I'm trying to publish a value from node-red to a sensor I created in the Sentilo platform and when I trigger the value to the server the node-red return the next error:

Some info:

I'm running the Sentilo in a virtual machine in my own computer and I created the next sensor:

node-red%20error sentilo-sensor

Node-red Flow and configuration of the nodes:

sentilo_flow

inject_node%20config

inject_node%20json

publish-node%20config
publish-node config.png629×557 20.7 KB

server-node%20config

Thanks in advance for the help!!

The error is an uncaught exception in the node-red-contrib-sentilo node. You should raise an issue against that node with those details so they can add the missing error handling - https://github.com/sentilo/node-red-contrib-sentilo

Looking at the specific error, it looks like the sentilo node has made an HTTP request to their platform and expects the response to be JSON. But it's saying the first character of the response is a < - so my guess is the response has been an HTML page, not a JSON string.

Either way, their code needs to handle this exception.
