TypeError: SerialPort.list

[jpnielsen]

Hi,

I found your post on the arduino.cc forum https://forum.arduino.cc/t/osc-over-usb/520680/13 Thank you very much for sharing this.

I plan on connecting a couple of joysticks to VCV Rack using a Raspberry Pi Pico on USB.

It gives this error message, when I run the node scripts.

 node .\main.js 8888 9999 localhost

Workarounds:

In main.js I commented out the serialport.listsection

and hardcoded the port comName = 'COM3'; // Uncomment this line to select a specific port instead of searching for an Arduino.

to get rid of the Buffer() warning, I changed to 'Buffer.alloc(0);' in slip.js

But I'm not skilled in .js

after this, the .ino runs on Raspberry Pi Pico and the .js bridge sends OSC to Protokol (https://hexler.net/protokol)

To get the arduino code to build, I cloned the repo https://github.com/CNMAT/OSC.git to my schematic dir, and changed

include \<xxxxx>

to

include "xxxxx"

for the CNMAT libraries.

I don't know how to include properly :)
