Serial Transfer Rust

Basic rust library to communicate with the SerialTransfer Arduino library

This library does not implement the full functionality of the base library and was only tested for personal use cases

Usage

Initializing

//use serialport library to open the port
let port = serialport::new("COM4",9600).open().expect("Failed to open port");
//create serialtransfer
let mut transfer = SerialTransfer::new(port);

Some struct to transfer

struct DemoPackage {
	foo: u8,
	bar: u16
}

Sending

let demo_package = DemoPackage {foo:1,bar:42};
transfer.send::<DemoPackage,3>(packet_data).expect("Failed to send data");

Recieving

let result = transfer.available::<DemoPackage,3>().expect("Failed to read data");
match result {
	Some(data) => {
		println!("Foo: {} / Bar: {}",data.foo, data.bar);
	},
	None => {
		println!("No data");
	}
}

Troubleshooting

In some cases you may get an IO-Timeout when sending packages, try to configure a timeout on your transfer to prevent this from happening
