This package is based on the work of Fabio Huser and is now community driven.
The group is searching for active collaborators to finish that library to become a good piece of Open Source.
Implementing and maintaining a protocol stack is a lot of work, therefore any
help is appreciated, from creating issues, to contributing documentation, fixing
issues, sending pull requests and adding new features.
Please follow the Contribution Guide when submitting any
changes. Ask the active NPM publishers if you need some advice to start your contribution!
This fork has some hacks to be able to read and write BACnet WEEKLY_SCHEDULE(17) and CALENDAR(6), props EFFECTIVE_PERIOD, WEEKLY_SCHEDULE, EXCEPTION_SCHEDULE and DATE_LIST.
Examples of how to use, see examples/ folder.
