saberrs

saberrs is a library for interfacing with [Dimension Engineering] Sabertooth motor driver.

Currently only the Sabertooth 2x32 is supported.

Simple usage

```rust use saberrs::sabertooth2x32; use saberrs::Result; use saberrs::sabertooth2x32::Sabertooth2x32;

// Create a handle. This will use "PacketSerial" protocol. let mut saber = sabertooth2x32::PacketSerial::new("/dev/ttyS0")?;

// Go forward at half-speed (50.0%) saber.setdrive(50.0)?; saber.setturn(0.0)?;

// Request the battery voltage from motor 1. let vbat : f32 = saber.get_voltage(1)?;

// Stop the motors saber.stop_motors()?;

```

Other protocol variants can be used:

```rust use saberrs::sabertooth2x32; use saberrs::sabertooth2x32::{Sabertooth2x32, PacketType}; use saberrs::Result;

// "PacketSerial" with specified address and frame protection type. let mut saber = sabertooth2x32::PacketSerial::new("/dev/ttyS0")? .withpackettype(PacketType::Checksum) .with_address(129);

// "PlainText" protocol let mut sabertext = sabertooth2x32::PlainText::new("/dev/ttyS1")?; ```

More advanced: serial settings and port sharing

The serial port is encapsulated in a trait [SabertoothSerial], implemented by [SabertoothPort] and [SabertoothPortShared], which allow to manually specify some serial port settings (although there are far less options than a raw serial port), or mix multiple protocols (PacketSerial or PlainText).
