I currently have a working REST client on my Arduino, but the requests always go to port 80. How do I make it send the request to a specific port?

This is my current code:

/*
File: RestClient.ino
This example makes an HTTP request after 10 seconds and shows the result both in
serial monitor and in the wifi console of the Arduino Uno WiFi.

Note: works only with Arduino Uno WiFi Developer Edition.

http://www.arduino.org/learning/tutorials/boards-tutorials/restserver-and-restclient */

#include <Wire.h> #include <UnoWiFiDevEd.h>

void setup() { const char* connector = "rest"; const char* server = "download.arduino.org"; const char* method = "GET"; const char* resource = "/latest.txt";

Serial.begin(9600); Ciao.begin(); pinMode(2, INPUT); delay(10000); doRequest(connector, server, resource, method); }

void loop() { }

void doRequest(const char* conn, const char* server, const char* command, const char* method) { CiaoData data = Ciao.write(conn, server, command, method); if (!data.isEmpty()) { Ciao.println( "State: " + String (data.get(1)) ); Ciao.println( "Response: " + String (data.get(2)) ); Serial.println( "State: " + String (data.get(1)) ); Serial.println( "Response: " + String (data.get(2)) ); } else { Ciao.println ("Write Error"); Serial.println ("Write Error"); } }

If I add for example :8080 to the end of the server variable, it does not work.

How do I make that request go to a specific port?

You can find a port definition for your Arduino in this path:

/usr/lib/python2.7/ciao/connectors/restserver/restserver.json.conf

{
 "name" : "restserver",
 "description" : "REST server connector for the Ciao Core",
 "authors": ["Arduino Team <swdev@arduino.org>;"],
 "repository" : "https://github.com/arduino-org/Ciao",
 "version" : "0.0.2",
 "params" : {
            "port" : 80
             },
 "log" : {
         "level" : "info"
         }
}

The confusing part is that your Arduino has a server-client connection to itself from the CPU/Linino server to the MCU/Arduino client.
