update required for arduinoJSON v6.xx apis

[technowhiz]

arduinoJson v6 apis have implemented some changes in using JsonBuffer and JsonObject classes.

[MrSuhov]

Actually Json 6.* are still in beta, so right now it looks reasonable to use json 5.* and wait for a release of 6.*

Hi @MrSuhov ,
If I am not wrong, ArduinoJson is currently in its stable channel v6.9.1.
Beta version ended in v6.8.0.
plz take a look at the image attached for further reference.
crct me if I am wrong.

Wow! I was not up to date)

Hi

Getting error:-

Documents\Arduino\libraries\firebase-arduino-master\src/Firebase.h:86:11: error: StaticJsonBuffer is a class from ArduinoJson 5. Please see arduinojson.org/upgrade to learn how to upgrade your program to ArduinoJson version 6

   std::shared_ptr<StaticJsonBuffer<FIREBASE_JSONBUFFER_SIZE>> buffer_;

Please update this library.

Thanks

Hi @TrickSumo ,
a quick remedy is just install ArduinoJSON v5 in ur libraries manager.
the recommended version of arduinoJSON as mentioned here is any version from v5.13.1.
and below v6

[TrickSumo]

Ok, Its working now.

Thanks sdk156.

Hi,

If you want to support both branches of ArduinoJson, you can check ARDUINOJSON_VERSION_MAJOR:

#if ARDUINOJSON_VERSION_MAJOR == 6
// code for v6
#else 
// code for v5
#endif

Alternatively, if you don't want to depend on the version installed on the user's computer, you can embed the library with the source code of firebase-arduino. Simply download ArduinoJson-v5.13.5.h in src/ and commit the file.

Regards,
Benoit

Thank u so much you saved my project

Hi, I'm using Arduino_JSON v6.9.0 (stable). In my code both the version v5 and v6 required. In one piece of function the v6 required, not v5, but for firebase, v5 required. What to do?
