package firmata

import "gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/firmata"

Package firmata provides the Gobot adaptor for microcontrollers that support the Firmata protocol.

Installing: 

go get -d -u gobot.io/x/gobot/... && go get gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/firmata

Example: 

package main

import (
	"time"

	"gobot.io/x/gobot"
	"gobot.io/x/gobot/drivers/gpio"
	"gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/firmata"
)

func main() {
	firmataAdaptor := firmata.NewAdaptor("/dev/ttyACM0")
	led := gpio.NewLedDriver(firmataAdaptor, "13")

	work := func() {
		gobot.Every(1*time.Second, func() {
			led.Toggle()
		})
	}

	robot := gobot.NewRobot("bot",
		[]gobot.Connection{firmataAdaptor},
		[]gobot.Device{led},
		work,
	)

	robot.Start()
}

Constants

❖
const (
    // ReceiveID is the BLE characteristic ID for receiving serial data
    ReceiveID = "6e400003b5a3f393e0a9e50e24dcca9e"

    // TransmitID is the BLE characteristic ID for transmitting serial data
    TransmitID = "6e400002b5a3f393e0a9e50e24dcca9e"
)

func NewFirmataI2cConnection Uses

❖
func NewFirmataI2cConnection(adaptor *Adaptor, address int) (connection *firmataI2cConnection)

NewFirmataI2cConnection creates an I2C connection to an I2C device at the specified address

type Adaptor Uses

❖
type Adaptor struct {
    Board firmataBoard

    PortOpener func(port string) (io.ReadWriteCloser, error)
    gobot.Eventer
    // contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Adaptor is the Gobot Adaptor for Firmata based boards

func NewAdaptor Uses

❖
func NewAdaptor(args ...interface{}) *Adaptor

NewAdaptor returns a new Firmata Adaptor which optionally accepts: 

string: port the Adaptor uses to connect to a serial port with a baude rate of 57600
io.ReadWriteCloser: connection the Adaptor uses to communication with the hardware

If an io.ReadWriteCloser is not supplied, the Adaptor will open a connection to a serial port with a baude rate of 57600. If an io.ReadWriteCloser is supplied, then the Adaptor will use the provided io.ReadWriteCloser and use the string port as a label to be displayed in the log and api.

func (*Adaptor) AnalogRead Uses

❖
func (f *Adaptor) AnalogRead(pin string) (val int, err error)

AnalogRead retrieves value from analog pin. Returns -1 if the response from the board has timed out

func (*Adaptor) Connect Uses

❖
func (f *Adaptor) Connect() (err error)

Connect starts a connection to the board.

func (*Adaptor) DigitalRead Uses

❖
func (f *Adaptor) DigitalRead(pin string) (val int, err error)

DigitalRead retrieves digital value from specified pin. Returns -1 if the response from the board has timed out

func (*Adaptor) DigitalWrite Uses

❖
func (f *Adaptor) DigitalWrite(pin string, level byte) (err error)

DigitalWrite writes a value to the pin. Acceptable values are 1 or 0.

func (*Adaptor) Disconnect Uses

❖
func (f *Adaptor) Disconnect() (err error)

Disconnect closes the io connection to the Board

func (*Adaptor) Finalize Uses

❖
func (f *Adaptor) Finalize() (err error)
