Struct unbounded_gpsd::GpsdConnection

pub struct GpsdConnection { /* fields omitted */ }

A connection to gpsd.

Methods

impl GpsdConnection

pub fn new<A: ToSocketAddrs>(addr: A) -> GpsdResult<Self>

Make a new connection to a given address.

pub fn watch(&mut self, watch: bool) -> GpsdResult<()>

Enable or disable watcher mode.

pub fn watch_raw(&mut self, watch: bool, json: bool, raw: u8) -> GpsdResult<()>

Enable RAW mode. In RAW mode, gpsd sends raw data from the GPS device, depending on the value of raw:

When this attribute is set to 1 for a channel, gpsd reports the unprocessed NMEA or AIVDM data stream from whatever device is attached. Binary GPS packets are hex-dumped. RTCM2 and RTCM3 packets are not dumped in raw mode. When this attribute is set to 2 for a channel that processes binary data, gpsd reports the received data verbatim without hex-dumping.

pub fn poll(&mut self) -> GpsdResult<()>

The POLL command requests data from the last-seen fixes on all active GPS devices. Devices must previously have been activated by ?WATCH to be pollable.

pub fn version(&mut self) -> GpsdResult<()>

Ask for the server's version (triggers a Response::Version).

pub fn devices(&mut self) -> GpsdResult<()>

Ask for the server's devices (triggers a Response::Devices)

pub fn set_read_timeout(&mut self, dur: Option<Duration>) -> GpsdResult<()>

Sets the read timeout for get_response.

A value of None implies that the read will never block.

pub fn get_response(&mut self) -> GpsdResult<Response>

Polls for responses from GPSD, blocking if necessary.

Ideally, you run this in a loop somewhere to process messages.
