Bamocar serial emulator #27

Open mbardwell opened 3 years ago

mbardwell commented 3 years ago

Summary

We can expect to do a lot of Bamocar programming via serial. Whether it be debugging, upgrading the firmware or as a backup for CANBus, we need software to communicate with the Bamocar serial port. The hardware will not always be available, so having a simulator handy will come in use. The simple solution is probably some combination of socat and a server with the Bamocar endpoints.
