Help needed for ESP8266, GPS neo6m and Firebase

[Sara]

Good day all,
I'm trying to upload the GPS neo-6m data to the firebase realtime database through the ESP8266 wifi module. but, after I uploaded the code nothing happen to the firebase and I can't find the latitude and longitude in the firebase.
can you please have a look at my code, please? I didn't receive any error messages when I uploaded the code.

#include <TinyGPS++.h>
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <FirebaseArduino.h>
#include <ArduinoJson.h>


#define FIREBASE_HOST 
#define FIREBASE_AUTH 
#define WIFI_SSID 
#define WIFI_PASSWORD


static const int RXPin =0, TXPin =2;

static const uint32_t GPSBaud = 9600;


TinyGPSPlus gps;



// The serial connection to the GPS device

SoftwareSerial ss(RXPin, TXPin);

void setup() {
   Serial.begin(9600);  

  // connect to wifi.
  WiFi.begin(WIFI_SSID, WIFI_PASSWORD);
  Serial.print("connecting");
  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
    Serial.print(".");
    delay(500);
  }
  Serial.println();
  Serial.print("connected: ");
  Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
  
  Firebase.begin(FIREBASE_HOST, FIREBASE_AUTH);
  Serial.begin(9600);
ss.begin(GPSBaud);
 //Serial.println("a");
}

  
void loop() {

 while (ss.available() > 0){

    gps.encode(ss.read());

    if (gps.location.isUpdated()){
      
      Serial.print("Latitude= ");
      Serial.print(gps.location.lat(), 6);
      Firebase.pushString("/lat", "sd");

      Serial.print(" Longitude= ");
     Serial.println(gps.location.lng(), 6);
     Firebase.pushString("/lng", "sd");
    }


 }}

@Sara , are you able to see the Latitude and longitude on the Serial Monitor ? and are you getting any error or something?

[Sara]

@salmanfaris yes I can see the latitude and longitude on the serial monitor and when I used them on the google map I can see my house. Also, there are no error messages received.

@Sara try this code.

#include <WiFi.h> // esp32 library

#include <IOXhop_FirebaseESP32.h>  // firebase library

#define FIREBASE_HOST "led-control-4631d.firebaseio.com"// the project name address from firebase id

#define FIREBASE_AUTH "Your Firebase secret key" // the secret key generated from firebase

#define WIFI_SSID "Your SSID"  // input your home or public wifi name

#define WIFI_PASSWORD "Your Passcode"   //password of wifi ssid

String fireStatus = ""; // led status received from firebase

void setup() {

  Serial.begin(9600);

  delay(1000);
           

  WiFi.begin(WIFI_SSID, WIFI_PASSWORD); //try to connect with wifi

  Serial.print("Connecting to ");

  Serial.print(WIFI_SSID);

  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {

    Serial.print(".");

    delay(500);

  }

  Serial.println();

  Serial.print("Connected to ");

  Serial.println(WIFI_SSID);

  Serial.print("IP Address is : ");

  Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());      //print local IP address

  Firebase.begin(FIREBASE_HOST, FIREBASE_AUTH);   // connect to firebase

  Firebase.setString("Your feedname", "your value");     //send initial string of led status

}

@kowshik1729 I received this error message

@Sara https://github.com/ioxhop/IOXhop_FirebaseESP32 Go to this site. Download the zip file.

Go to your sketch in Arduino IDE -> include .ZIP library -> browse and select your zip file. This will install your library.

Then try compiling your code.

[Sara]

@kowshik1729 still I'm receiving error messages. I think because the esp is different from the esp that mentioned in the code.

[kowshik1729]

Yeah, I knew that. Typically ESP8266 can compile most of the codes of ESP32. That's why I asked to compile it once. I will get back to you with one more option.

@Sara https://www.instructables.com/id/Esp8266-Firebase-Connection/

Please try the instructions here step by step and try it.

[Sara]

@kowshik1729 I already did the same steps previously with no result.

@Sara

I already did some projects on Firebase with NodeMCU (ESP8266) .I got run time errors but mine's worked fine .U should check with your libraries . also tested over more than 2 libraries . In the code above u mentioned is not declared the FIREBASE_HOST,FIREBASE_AUTH, WIFI_SSID and WIFI_PASSWORD variable values may be u removed for privacy .The serial gps is not a big deal.U should check ur firbase with the given example of the particular header file or library .I didnt used the ArduinoJson.h library at all ....
