Stream from serial/COM port #106

Is there a way to process the incoming stream of data from a serial/COM port similar to the TCP and UDP examples?

It’s definitely possible. But you need to implement the actual logic to read the raw messages from the serial port by yourself. The actual decoding can then be done by pyais.

I don’t have a serial device, therefore I can not provide you with any sample code.

Did you take a look at pyserial? It looks promising: https://pyserial.readthedocs.io/en/latest/shortintro.html

Thanks that seems to be working great.
