bevy_serial

bevy_serial is a plugin to add non-blocking serial communication to bevy. This plugin is based on mio-serial that can realize non-blocking high performance I/O.

Reading and writing from/to serial port is realized via bevy's event system. Each serial port is handled via port name or a unique label you choose.

Simple Example

Here is a simple example:

```rust use bevy::prelude::*; use bevy_serial::{SerialPlugin, SerialReadEvent, SerialWriteEvent};

// to write data to serial port periodically struct SerialWriteTimer(Timer);

fn main() { App::build() .addplugins(MinimalPlugins) // simply specify port name and baud rate for SerialPlugin .addplugin(SerialPlugin::new("COM5", 115200)) // to write data to serial port periodically (every 1 second) .insertresource(SerialWriteTimer(Timer::fromseconds(1.0, true))) // reading and writing from/to serial port is achieved via bevy's event system .addsystem(readserial.system()) .addsystem(writeserial.system()) .run(); }

// reading event for serial port fn readserial(mut evserial: EventReader) { // you can get label of the port and received data buffer from SerialReadEvent for SerialReadEvent(label, buffer) in evserial.iter() { let s = String::fromutf8(buffer.clone()).unwrap(); println!("received packet from {}: {}", label, s); } }

// writing event for serial port fn writeserial( mut evserial: EventWriter, mut timer: ResMut, time: Res, ) { if timer.0.tick(time.delta()).justfinished() { // you can write to serial port via SerialWriteEvent with label and buffer to write let buffer = b"Hello, bevy!"; evserial.send(SerialWriteEvent("COM5".tostring(), buffer.tovec())); } } ```

Multiple Serial Ports with Additional Settings

You can add multiple serial ports with additional settings.

```rust use bevy::prelude::*; use bevy_serial::{ DataBits, FlowControl, Parity, SerialPlugin, SerialReadEvent, SerialSetting, SerialWriteEvent, StopBits, }; use std::time::Duration;

// to write data to serial port periodically struct SerialWriteTimer(Timer);

fn main() { App::build() .addplugins(MinimalPlugins) // you can specify various configurations for multiple serial ports by this way .addplugin(SerialPlugin { settings: vec![SerialSetting { label: Some("myserial".tostring()), portname: "COM5".tostring(), baudrate: 115200, databits: DataBits::Eight, flowcontrol: FlowControl::None, parity: Parity::None, stopbits: StopBits::One, timeout: Duration::frommillis(0), }], }) // to write data to serial port periodically (every 1 second) .insertresource(SerialWriteTimer(Timer::fromseconds(1.0, true))) // reading and writing from/to serial port is achieved via bevy's event system .addsystem(readserial.system()) .addsystem(write_serial.system()) .run(); }

// reading event for serial port fn readserial(mut evserial: EventReader) { // you can get label of the port and received data buffer from SerialReadEvent for SerialReadEvent(label, buffer) in evserial.iter() { let s = String::fromutf8(buffer.clone()).unwrap(); println!("read packet from {}: {}", label, s); } }

// writing event for serial port fn writeserial( mut evserial: EventWriter, mut timer: ResMut, time: Res, ) { if timer.0.tick(time.delta()).justfinished() { // you can write to serial port via SerialWriteEvent with label and buffer to write let buffer = b"Hello, bevy!"; evserial.send(SerialWriteEvent("myserial".tostring(), buffer.to_vec())); } } ```
