Module: DriverBase

Base communication for generic drivers

Class Method Summary collapse

Class Method Details

.detect(base_port, decoder, options = {}, block = nil) ⇒ Array

Detects and returns information from a generic driver

Examples:

Detect value from a driver and return data

MatrixCreator::DriverBase.detect(8888, MatrixMalos::Imu, max_resp: 3)

Detect value from a driver and process data immediatly when received

MatrixCreator::DriverBase.detect(8888, MatrixMalos::Imu, max_resp: 3) { |data|
  // Do something with data
}

Parameters:

  • base_port (Integer) —

    indicates the base port to communicate to the driver

  • decoder —

    ProtoBuf to use for decoding returned data

  • options (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    of keys and values that can contain speed, max_resp and/or max_secs

Returns:

  • (Array) —

    elements detected in JSON format
