Karel and MySQL

    Hi
    I would like to have a karel program running on my fanuc robot which is counting statistics about the production. This numbers should be accessible over a MySQL database, from there I can visualize it then easily. Is there a tutorial or an approach how to do something like this? Is it even possible?

    Thanks for your ideas!

    Thank you scotty!

    This is a good approach for my project. As I guess directly form Karel to the Database is not really possible, this is the only solution. Could you help me with some tips:


      • What exactly is a SCRAPPER? I imagine a program (Python/C++?, running on what?) that checks for an updated file and scans it for new data to save it then to FTP.
      • How do you see the connections between the DATA_FILE and the SCRAPPER? Would this be downloading and analyzing the file via FTP? Or are there other ways?

      • Is there already a SCRAPPER for this purpose that you maybe already used?

    Instead of these programs, if you have SNPX option in the robot, you can buy KEPServerEX and log directly to MySQL. This has been discussed many times on the forum.

    Can someone provide something more details about this topic, please?
    Is it true that has been discussed many times, but it is very hard to find some useful information.
