Node.js library for UART communication with uBeacons.
npm install node-ubeacon-uart-libThe following files provide a node.js library, allowing to communicate with uBeacon v2.0 devices over USB-UART cable, provided with the devices.
The communication allows to adjust various settings of the device, as well as sending and receiving messages, over mesh supported from the 2.0 version.
``
npm install node-ubeacon-uart-lib
Refer to scripts in examples folder for demonstration of using the library.
To launch the scripts you will need to specify identifier of the serial port to use. Depending on your specific configuration and platform it will be something similar to the following:
OSX/Linux:
`
node basic-reader.js --serial-port=/dev/tty.usbserial-A703JWRZ
Windows:
`
node basic-reader.js --serial-port=COM1
To determine the identifier of your serial port for OSX open terminal and type:
`
ls /dev/tty.*
It will result in a list similar to the following:
`
$ ls /dev/tty.*
/dev/tty.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/tty.usbserial-A703JWRZ
/dev/tty.Bluetooth-Modem
To determine the identifier for Windows you will need to go into device manager and look an entry named "USB Serial Port (COMX)" under "Ports (COM and LPT)" section.
