Make pyserial module optional for ipm-host #17

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
From Tyler Wilson:

Since the ipm.py may be used in a desktop-only environment, the
pyserial package is not strictly needed. (In addition, under sygwin,
there is no pyserial package available in the setup, so it must be
installed from source, which is a bit more work than perhaps most want
to deal with). So in the ipm.py, instead of a direct import serial, it
may make sense to do something like:

try:
   import serial
except:
   print("No serial package available. Will default to desktop
mode.")

I tested this locally, and it worked fine for me.

In src/tools/ipm.py, relocated "import serial" into the SerialConnection class' 
constructor and wrapped it with try/except and added a message where to get 
pySerial if 
it wasn't available.

System tests don't apply to src/tools/ipm.py.  Tested ipm.py manually (but not 
on a 
computer without the serial module)
