// Handle all errors in one place
console.error("Serial port error:", error);
} finally {
// Clean up
if (port) {
try {
await port.cancelListen();
await port.close();
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error during cleanup:", error);

await port.clearBuffer(ClearBuffer.Input);
await port.clearBuffer(ClearBuffer.Output);
await port.clearBuffer(ClearBuffer.All);
// Break signal control
await port.setBreak();
await port.clearBreak();
```
---
## Log Level Control
The plugin provides comprehensive logging control to help you manage verbosity in production environments. By default, the plugin logs informational messages, but you can adjust this to reduce noise or enable detailed debugging.
### TypeScript/JavaScript Usage
```typescript
import { SerialPort, LogLevel } from "tauri-plugin-serialplugin-api";
// Disable all logs (recommended for production)
await SerialPort.setLogLevel(LogLevel.None);
// Show only errors
await SerialPort.setLogLevel(LogLevel.Error);
// Show errors and warnings
await SerialPort.setLogLevel(LogLevel.Warn);
// Show errors, warnings, and info (default)
await SerialPort.setLogLevel(LogLevel.Info);
// Enable all logs including debug information
await SerialPort.setLogLevel(LogLevel.Debug);
// Get current log level
const currentLevel = await SerialPort.getLogLevel();
console.log("Current log level:", currentLevel);
```
### Rust Usage
```rust
use tauri_plugin_serialplugin::state::{LogLevel, set_log_level};
// Set log level on plugin initialization
fn main() {
// Disable logs in production
set_log_level(LogLevel::None);
tauri::Builder::default()
.plugin(tauri_plugin_serialplugin::init())
.run(tauri::generate_context!())
.expect("error while running tauri application");
}
```
Or configure via command:
```rust
use tauri_plugin_serialplugin::commands::set_log_level;
use tauri_plugin_serialplugin::state::LogLevel;
use tauri::{AppHandle, State};
#[tauri::command]
async fn configure_production_logging(
app: AppHandle<tauri::Wry>,
serial: State<'_, tauri_plugin_serialplugin::desktop_api::SerialPort<tauri::Wry>>
) -> Result<(), String> {
// Only show errors in production
set_log_level(app, serial, LogLevel::Error)
.map_err(|e| e.to_string())
}
```
### Log Levels
- **`None`** - No logging output (recommended for production)
- **`Error`** - Only critical errors
- **`Warn`** - Errors and warnings
- **`Info`** - Errors, warnings, and general information (default)
- **`Debug`** - All logging including debug information (for development)
### Common Use Cases
#### Production Environment
```typescript
// Disable noisy logs when polling for available ports
await SerialPort.setLogLevel(LogLevel.None);
setInterval(async () => {
const ports = await SerialPort.available_ports();
// No "listen event: plugin-serialplugin-disconnected-COM6" logs
}, 1000);
```
#### Development with Debugging
```typescript
// Enable detailed logging for troubleshooting
await SerialPort.setLogLevel(LogLevel.Debug);
const port = new SerialPort({ path: "COM1", baudRate: 9600 });
await port.open();
// See all internal events and state changes
```
#### Conditional Logging
```typescript
// Set log level based on environment
const isDevelopment = import.meta.env.DEV;
await SerialPort.setLogLevel(isDevelopment ? LogLevel.Debug : LogLevel.Error);
```

// Close port
close(app, serial, port_path)
.map_err(|e| format!("Failed to close port: {}", e))?;
Ok(())
}
```
### Using Commands vs Direct API
You have two ways to use the plugin in Rust:
#### Option 1: Using Commands (Recommended)
Import and use the command functions directly. These functions are documented in the [docs.rs documentation](https://docs.rs/tauri-plugin-serialplugin/):
```rust
use tauri_plugin_serialplugin::commands::{available_ports, open, write, read, close};
use tauri::{AppHandle, State};
#[tauri::command]
async fn my_serial_function(
app: AppHandle<tauri::Wry>,
serial: State<'_, tauri_plugin_serialplugin::desktop_api::SerialPort<tauri::Wry>>
) -> Result<(), String> {
// Use command functions
let ports = available_ports(app.clone(), serial.clone())?;
open(app.clone(), serial.clone(), "COM1".to_string(), 9600, None, None, None, None, None)?;
// ... rest of your code
}
```
#### Option 2: Using Direct API
Use the SerialPort methods directly:
```rust
use tauri::State;
use tauri_plugin_serialplugin::desktop_api::SerialPort;
#[tauri::command]
async fn my_serial_function(
serial: State<'_, SerialPort<tauri::Wry>>
) -> Result<(), String> {
// Use serial methods directly
let ports = serial.available_ports()?;
// ... rest of your code
}
```
### Available Rust Types
The plugin provides the following Rust types for configuration:
```rust
use tauri_plugin_serialplugin::state::{
DataBits, // Five, Six, Seven, Eight
FlowControl, // None, Software, Hardware
Parity, // None, Odd, Even
StopBits, // One, Two
ClearBuffer // Input, Output, All
};
```
### Complete Command Functions Reference
Here are all the available command functions you can import and use. For detailed documentation with examples, see the [docs.rs documentation](https://docs.rs/tauri-plugin-serialplugin/):
```rust
use tauri_plugin_serialplugin::commands::{
// Port discovery
available_ports, // Get list of available ports
available_ports_direct, // Get ports using platform-specific commands

// Connection management
open, // Open a serial port
close, // Close a serial port
close_all, // Close all open ports
force_close, // Force close a port
// Data transfer
write, // Write string data
write_binary, // Write binary data
read, // Read string data

bytes_to_write, // Get bytes waiting to write
clear_buffer, // Clear buffers
// Break signal
set_break, // Start break signal

};
```
### Command Function Signatures
All command functions follow this pattern:
```rust
pub fn function_name<R: Runtime>(
app: AppHandle<R>,
serial: State<'_, SerialPort<R>>,
// ... additional parameters specific to the function
) -> Result<ReturnType, Error>
```
For example:
```rust
// Open port
pub fn open<R: Runtime>(
app: AppHandle<R>,
serial: State<'_, SerialPort<R>>,
path: String,
baud_rate: u32,
data_bits: Option<DataBits>,
flow_control: Option<FlowControl>,
parity: Option<Parity>,
stop_bits: Option<StopBits>,
timeout: Option<u64>,
) -> Result<(), Error>
// Write data
pub fn write<R: Runtime>(
app: AppHandle<R>,
serial: State<'_, SerialPort<R>>,
path: String,
value: String,
) -> Result<usize, Error>
```

## Common Use Cases
### Reading Sensor Data
```typescript
const port = new SerialPort({
path: "COM1",
baudRate: 9600
});
await port.open();
await port.startListening();
await port.listen((data) => {
const sensorValue = parseFloat(data);
console.log("Sensor reading:", sensorValue);
});
```
### Binary Protocol Communication
```typescript
const port = new SerialPort({
path: "COM1",
baudRate: 115200
});
await port.open();
// Send command
const command = new Uint8Array([0x02, 0x01, 0x03]);
await port.writeBinary(command);
// Start listening for response
await port.startListening();
// Read response (raw bytes)
await port.listen((data) => {
const response = data instanceof Uint8Array ? data : new Uint8Array();
console.log("Response:", response);
}, false);
```
### Modbus Communication
```typescript
const port = new SerialPort({
path: "COM1",
baudRate: 9600,
dataBits: DataBits.Eight,
stopBits: StopBits.One,
parity: Parity.None
});
await port.open();
function createModbusRequest(address: number, length: number): Uint8Array {
return new Uint8Array([
0x01, // Device ID
0x03, // Function code: Read Holding Registers
address >> 8, address & 0xFF,
length >> 8, length & 0xFF
]);
}
// Send Modbus request
const request = createModbusRequest(0x1000, 10);
await port.writeBinary(request);
```
### Auto-Reconnect for Reliable Communication
```typescript
const port = new SerialPort({
path: "COM1",
baudRate: 9600
});
await port.open();
// Enable auto-reconnect with custom settings
await port.enableAutoReconnect({
interval: 3000, // Try to reconnect every 3 seconds
maxAttempts: 5, // Maximum 5 attempts
onReconnect: (success, attempt) => {
if (success) {
console.log(`Reconnected successfully on attempt ${attempt}`);
} else {
console.log(`Reconnection attempt ${attempt} failed`);
}
}
});
// Set up data listener
await port.startListening();
const unsubscribe = await port.listen((data) => {
console.log("Received data:", data);
});
// The port will automatically reconnect if disconnected
// You can also manually trigger reconnection
const success = await port.manualReconnect();
if (success) {
console.log("Manual reconnection successful");
}
// Check auto-reconnect status
const info = port.getAutoReconnectInfo();
console.log("Auto-reconnect enabled:", info.enabled);
console.log("Current attempts:", info.currentAttempts);
// Disable auto-reconnect when no longer needed
await port.disableAutoReconnect();
```

## Development Setup
```bash
git clone https://github.com/s00d/tauri-plugin-serialplugin.git
cd tauri-plugin-serialplugin
pnpm i
pnpm run build
pnpm run playground
```
## Testing
For testing applications without physical hardware, you can use a mock implementation of the serial port. The mock port emulates all functions of a real port and allows testing the application without physical devices.
### Using Mock Port
```rust
use tauri_plugin_serialplugin::tests::mock::MockSerialPort;
// Create a mock port
let mock_port = MockSerialPort::new();
// Configure port settings
mock_port.set_baud_rate(9600).unwrap();
mock_port.set_data_bits(serialport::DataBits::Eight).unwrap();
mock_port.set_flow_control(serialport::FlowControl::None).unwrap();
mock_port.set_parity(serialport::Parity::None).unwrap();
mock_port.set_stop_bits(serialport::StopBits::One).unwrap();
// Write data
mock_port.write("Test data".as_bytes()).unwrap();
// Read data
let mut buffer = [0u8; 1024];
let bytes_read = mock_port.read(&mut buffer).unwrap();
let data = String::from_utf8_lossy(&buffer[..bytes_read]);
assert_eq!(data, "Test data");
```
### Mock Port Features
- Complete emulation of all real port functions
- Built-in buffer for data storage
- Control signal emulation (RTS, DTR, CTS, DSR)
- Support for parallel operation testing
- No additional software required
- Works on all platforms
### Application Testing Example
```rust
#[test]
fn test_serial_communication() {
let app = create_test_app();
let serial_port = SerialPort::new(app.handle().clone());
app.manage(serial_port);
// Open mock port
app.state::<SerialPort<MockRuntime>>().open(
"COM1".to_string(),
9600,
Some(DataBits::Eight),
Some(FlowControl::None),
Some(Parity::None),
Some(StopBits::One),
Some(1000),
).unwrap();
// Test write and read operations
app.state::<SerialPort<MockRuntime>>().write(
"COM1".to_string(),
"Test data".to_string(),
).unwrap();
let data = app.state::<SerialPort<MockRuntime>>().read(
"COM1".to_string(),
Some(1000),
Some(1024),
).unwrap();
assert_eq!(data, "Test data");
// Test port settings
app.state::<SerialPort<MockRuntime>>().set_baud_rate(
"COM1".to_string(),
115200,
).unwrap();
// Close port
app.state::<SerialPort<MockRuntime>>().close("COM1".to_string()).unwrap();
}
```
### Implementing Your Own Mock Port
You can implement your own mock port by implementing the `SerialPort` trait. Here's a basic example of how to create a custom mock port:
```rust
use std::io::{self, Read, Write};
use serialport::{self, SerialPort};
use std::time::Duration;
struct CustomMockPort {
buffer: Vec<u8>,
baud_rate: u32,
data_bits: serialport::DataBits,
flow_control: serialport::FlowControl,
parity: serialport::Parity,
stop_bits: serialport::StopBits,
timeout: Duration,
}
impl CustomMockPort {
fn new() -> Self {
Self {
buffer: Vec::new(),
baud_rate: 9600,
data_bits: serialport::DataBits::Eight,
flow_control: serialport::FlowControl::None,
parity: serialport::Parity::None,
stop_bits: serialport::StopBits::One,
timeout: Duration::from_millis(1000),
}
}
}
// Implement Read trait for reading data
impl Read for CustomMockPort {
fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> io::Result<usize> {
let len = std::cmp::min(buf.len(), self.buffer.len());
if len > 0 {
buf[..len].copy_from_slice(&self.buffer[..len]);
self.buffer.drain(..len);
}
Ok(len)
}
}
// Implement Write trait for writing data
impl Write for CustomMockPort {
fn write(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> io::Result<usize> {
self.buffer.extend_from_slice(buf);
Ok(buf.len())
}
fn flush(&mut self) -> io::Result<()> {
Ok(())
}
}
// Implement SerialPort trait for port configuration
impl SerialPort for CustomMockPort {
fn name(&self) -> Option<String> {
Some("CUSTOM_PORT".to_string())
}
fn baud_rate(&self) -> serialport::Result<u32> {
Ok(self.baud_rate)
}
fn data_bits(&self) -> serialport::Result<serialport::DataBits> {
Ok(self.data_bits)
}
// ... implement other required methods ...
}
```
For a complete implementation example, see the mock port implementation in the plugin's test directory:
[`src/tests/mock.rs`](https://github.com/s00d/tauri-plugin-serialplugin/blob/main/src/tests/mock.rs)
The example includes:
- Full implementation of all required traits
- Buffer management for read/write operations
- Control signal emulation
- Port configuration handling
- Error handling
- Thread safety considerations
You can use this implementation as a reference when creating your own mock port with custom behavior for specific testing scenarios.
