The Swift Navigation Binary Protocol (SBP) is a fast, simple, and
minimal binary protocol for communicating with Swift devices. It is
the native binary protocol used by the
Piksi GPS receiver to transmit
solutions, observations, status and debugging messages, as well as
receive messages from the host operating system, such as differential
corrections and the almanac.
This project provides language-agnostic specification and
documentation for messages used with SBP, a compiler for generating
message bindings, and client libraries in a variety of languages. This
repository is organized into the following directory structure:
* docs: Protocol documentation and message definitions.
* spec: Machine readable protocol specification in
YAML.
* generator: Simple, template-based generator for
different languages.
* python: Python client and examples.
* c: C client library and examples.
* haskell: Haskell client and examples.
* java: Java client library and examples.
* javascript: JavaScript client library and examples.
Except for the generator, all of the above are generated and should not be modified directly.
* python: available on pip
* haskell: available on Hackage
* javascript: available on NPM

make python

make all
are both valid. To see a list of all valid targets, run make help`.
SBP consists of two pieces: (i) an over-the-wire message framing
format and (ii) structured payload definitions. As of Version 1.0, the
packet consists of a 6-byte binary header section, a variable-sized
payload field, and a 16-bit CRC value. SBP uses the CCITT CRC16
(XMODEM implementation) for error detection.
Please see
the docs
for a full description of the packet structure and the message
types. Developer documentatation for the language-specific sbp
libraries is here.
