Cylon Adaptor for Odroid single-board computers
npm install cylon-odroidCylon.js (http://cylonjs.com) is a JavaScript framework for robotics, physical computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT) using Node.js.
This module provides an adaptor for ODROID Linux computers (http://www.hardkernel.com/main/main.php).
More devices to be added shortly...
Installing Cylon.js is easy, and must be done on an Odroid Board with NodeJS.
$ npm install cylon cylon-odroid cylon-gpio cylon-i2c
``javascript
var Cylon = require("cylon");
var odroid = require("cylon-odroid");
// Initialize the robot
Cylon.robot({
connections: {
odroid: { adaptor: "odroid" }
},
devices: {
led: { driver: "led", pin: 27 },
button: { driver: "button", pin: 26, type: "closed"}
},
work: function(my) {
my.button.on('push', function() { my.led.toggle() });
}
}).start();
`
`javascript
var Cylon = require("cylon");
var odroid = require("cylon-odroid");
// Initialize the robot
Cylon.robot({
connections: {
odroid: { adaptor: "odroid", shifterShield: true }
//You could also invert the ShifterShield pins such that pin 40 = pin 1, pin 39 = pin 2...
//odroid: {
// adaptor: "odroid",
// shifterShield: {
// inverted: true
// }
// }
},
devices: {
led: { driver: "led", pin: 27 },
button: { driver: "button", pin: 26 }
},
work: function(my) {
my.button.on('push', function() { my.led.toggle() });
}
}).start();
`
`javascript
var Cylon = require("cylon");
var odroid = require("cylon-odroid");
// Initialize the robot
Cylon.robot({
connections: {
odroid: { adaptor: "odroid" },
con11: { adaptor: 'xu4-12pin' }
},
devices: {
led: { driver: "led", pin: 27 },
//Set the button to use pin 6 on the 12 pin header
button: { driver: "button", pin: 6, connection: 'con11' }
},
work: function(my) {
my.button.on('push', function() { my.led.toggle() });
}
}).start();

The Serial driver is a wrapper the node library : serialport.
Use as if the driver is the package itself.
`javascript
var Cylon = require("cylon");
var odroid = require("cylon-odroid");
// Initialize the robot
Cylon.robot({
connections: {
odroid: { adaptor: "odroid" }
},
devices: {
serialDevice: { driver: 'serial' } //9600 BaudRate
},
work: function(my) {
my.serialDevice.write('hello \n');
}
}).start();
`
Options availablejavascript`
devices: {
serialDevice: { driver: 'serial', baudRate: 57600, port: '/dev/ttyS0', parser: { byteLength : 5} }
},
//The default port used is the Odroid Boards pin serial port
//Parsers
//Other parsers avaialable
parser: { byteDelimiter: [10,12] }
Commands available are such as:
- write
- pause
- resume
- flush
- close
- update
- set
Looking for a something like `serial.available()?` listen for the data event instead `javascript``
my.serialDevice.on('data',function(data) {
//Do something with the data passed
});
Other events available
- open
- close
- error
- disconnect
