The request variable will return something like this:
GET /?led=on HTTP/1.1 …

position 1 is G
position 2 is E

l is position 6 and it’s where the string led_off starts in the request variable

nope. im still confuse.
what in position 1? position 2? 3? 4? 5?
can you give example

Hi.
I’m sorry I didn’t specify that.

led_on = request.find(‘/?led=on’)
This line checks if the text /?led=on exists inside the request string variable.

The request variable usually contains the full HTTP request sent by the browser (for example: GET /?led=on HTTP/1.1 …).
The .find() method searches for a substring and returns its position (index) inside the string. It’s located in position 6.
If not found, it returns -1.

So, if led_off = 6 it means the string led_off existis in the request and we want to turn it off.

The same logic applies for the other state.

I hope this is clear.

Hi.
Did you upload both files to the board? I mean actually uploading, not just running?

J’ai bien suivi les différents points et versé le main.py et le boot.py sur l’esp8266 mais j’ai au final un dysfonctionnement : je n’ai pas d’action sur la led depuis mon portable et Thonny (mon EDI) m’indique une erreur qui est :

File “main.py”, line 24, in
OSError: [Errno 22] EINVAL

La ligne 24 est ‘conn, addr = s.accept()’
Pouvez vous m’aider?

Merci
