§Excamera I2CDriver

This is a support library / driver for using the Excamera I2CDriver or I2CMini devices within Rust/Crablang. It is intended to facilitate the development of embedded-hal-compatible drivers for I2C devices.
This project is not associated with Excamera / James Bowman.
See CONTRIBUTING if you are interested in submitting patches.
§Basic Usage
The I2CDriver can be initialized with the name of a serial port.
let mut i2c = I2CDriver::open("/dev/ttyUSB0").unwrap();
let mut d = my_i2c_driver::Driver::new(i2c).unwrap();
d.do_the_thing()Depending on your OS, the port name may appear differently.
- Linux:
/dev/ttyUSB0or/dev/ttyS0; see the output ofsudo dmesgfor the exact device name. - MacOS:
/dev/ttyACM0; see the output ofsudo dmesgfor the exact device name. - Windows:
COM5; see Device Manager for the exact name.
§HAL Support
This implements both 0.2.x and 1.x embedded-hal traits. They are both enabled by
default, but may be controlled by feature flags, eh0 and eh1.
There is embedded-hal-async support using the async feature. It is not enabled
by default as it requires nightly compiler to build.
§Testing Using Examples
One convenient way to manually test changes against real hardware is using
cargo watch combined with example
files.
$ git clone git@gitlab.com:tschundler/i2cdriver.git
cd i2cdriver
cargo watch -- cargo run --example scanbus -- -d /dev/ttyUSB0Structs§
