irp 0.1.0

This library parses IRP, and encodes IR with the provided parameters. This can then be used for IR transmission. You can also use the library to parse and encode pronto hex codes, lirc mode2 pulse / space files, and parse simple raw IR strings.

A decoder is in the works but this is still some time away.

About IRP

IRP Notation is a mini-language which describes Consumer IR protocols. There is a extensive library of protocols described using IRP.

An example of how to encode NEC1

This example sets some parameters, encodes and then simply prints the result.

let mut vars = irp::encode::Vartable::new(); vars.set(String::from("D"), 255, 8); vars.set(String::from("S"), 52, 8); vars.set(String::from("F"), 1, 8); let message = irp::encode::encode( "{38.4k,564}<1,-1|1,-3>(16,-8,D:8,S:8,F:8,~F:8,1,^108m,(16,-4,1,^108m)*) [D:0..255,S:0..255=255-D,F:0..255]", vars, 0).expect("encode should succeed"); if let Some(carrier) = &message.carrier { println!("carrier: {}Hz", carrier); } if let Some(duty_cycle) = &message.duty_cycle { println!("duty cycle: {}%", duty_cycle); } println!("{}", message.print_rawir());

The output is in raw ir format, which looks like "+9024 -4512 +564 -1692 +564 -1692 +564 -1692 +564 ...". The first entry in this array is flash, which means infrared light should be on for N microseconds, and every even entry means gap, which means absense of light, i.e. off, for N microseconds. This continues to alternate. The leading

• and - also mean flash and gap.

Parsing pronto hex codes

The Pronto Hex is made popular by the Philips Pronto universal remote. The format is a series of 4 digits hex numbers. This library can parse the long codes, there is no support for the short format yet.

let pronto = irp::pronto::parse(r#" 0000 006C 0000 0022 00AD 00AD 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 06FB "#).expect("parse should succeed"); let message = pronto.encode(0); if let Some(carrier) = &message.carrier { println!("carrier: {}Hz", carrier); } println!("{}", message.print_rawir());

Parsing lirc mode2 pulse space files

This format was made popular by the mode2 tool, which prints a single line for each flash and gap, but then calls them pulse and space. It looks like so:

carrier 38400
pulse 9024
space 4512
pulse 4512

This is an example of how to parse this. The result is printed in the more concise raw ir format.

let message = irp::mode2::parse(r#" carrier 38400 pulse 9024 space 4512 pulse 4512 "#).expect("parse should succeed"); if let Some(carrier) = &message.carrier { println!("carrier: {}Hz", carrier); } if let Some(duty_cycle) = &message.duty_cycle { println!("duty cycle: {}%", duty_cycle); } println!("{}", message.print_rawir());

Parsing raw ir format

The raw ir format looks like "+100 -100 +100". The leading + and - may be omitted, but if present they are checked for consistency. The parse function returns a Vec<u32>.

let rawir: Vec = irp::rawir::parse("+100 -100 +100").expect("parse should succeed"); println!("{}", irp::rawir::print_to_string(&rawir));
