ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE

[luandro]

I've playing with sending LoRa packets over SSB, using ssb-db2. I'm getting this error related to the values in the LoRa packet which I'm translating to json as they are, Ints:

Received onTextPacket

  packet: {

}

Is turning them to strings the best solution?

Hello @luandro

Yes the ints in bipf are signed so can't hold 3731283723. Besides a string, you can maybe see if it works if they are double (little endian 64 bit float). Try with 3731283723.0 and see if that works.

Yup, that worked @arj03 thanks! Added .toFixed(2) to all the ints.
