Serial Client

The serial.client module connects to a serial device and emits a message messages based on the data it receives from the port. Messages are determined by “framing” techniques as serial is a stream based protocol.

type: serial.client
params:
- port: serial port to connect to i.e /dev/ttyS0
- baudRate baud rate to use when connecting to serial port
- framing: how to chunk the serial stream into “messages”
  - LF \n
  - CR \r
  - CRLF \r\n
  - SLIP
  - RAW (no framing is done bytes are sent out as they are received)

Example

Open a serial connection to /dev/ttyS0 with a buad rate of 115200, any incoming data will be split on line-feed (\n)

- id: serialClient
  type: serial.client
  params:
    port: "/dev/ttyS0"
    baudRate: 115200
    framing: LF
