#this library makes functions run simultaneously

import asyncio

#This library makes the connection to the websocket possible.

import json

```
|

Afterward, a function would be called related to the "mysql.connector" library, where you would provide the login credentials of the database you have set up to establish a solid connection. This connection will be utilized multiple times later in the code.
|
||||
```py
|

#async is making use of the asyncio library.

#make a mold for the data to get to the DB

query = "INSERT INTO `Measurement` (NodeID, Type, Value) VALUES (%s, %s, %s)"

```
|
||||
In the next part of the code, the data collected from the node (which is done later on) is processed here and made readable for the Python code.
|
||||
|
||||
This processed data is then split up into five different types: the temperature, the humidity, the eCO2 and TVOC values, and the MAC address from which this information was sent.
|
||||
|
||||
The MAC address is then taken and turned into a tuple. This is done because the database expects a tuple to be inserted instead of a string.
|
||||
|
||||
(for more information on tuples I suggest visiting https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_tuples.asp)
|
||||
```py
|
||||
#load the json data and make it readable.
|
||||
processedData = json.loads(data)
|
||||
#divide the data into types
|
||||
processedTemp = (processedData['Temp'])
|
||||
processedHumi = (processedData['Humi'])
|
||||
processedeCO2 = (processedData['eCO2'])
|
||||
processedTvoc = (processedData['TVOC'])
|
||||
processedMAC = (processedData['node'])
|
||||
#make a tuple of the MAC by placing a comma.
|
||||
MACTuple = (processedMAC,)
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Coming back to previous lines of code, the data which was first aked for is now gatherd and gets put in an array.
|
||||
```py
|
||||
MACDataFetching = MACDataReading.fetchall()
|
||||
MACArray = list(MACDataFetching)
