wake-rs

wake-rs is a library written in Rust for encoding/decoding Wake protocol.

Wake is a serial communication protocol highly optimized for microcontrollers. It based on SLIP protocol (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1055).

Main features

• unique start symbol
• 7-bit addressing (optional)
• CRC (8 or 16 bits)
• low overhead

The protocol doesn't support:

• ~~error correction~~
• ~~compression~~

Frame structure:

Integrations

There are many architecture-specific implementations:

• MCS-51
• AVR
• STM32
• x86

in many languages:

• C
• C++
• C#
• Python
• Rust

Examples

1. Demo - basic usage
2. Serial - how to use with serial port
3. Relay shield - real device communication

Build

Library

bash cargo build --release

Examples

TODO

• Use this library with a microcontroller (Rust project)
• Add a stream decoder (one byte per time with internal buffer)
