Usage

Listing serial ports

import serial# Or: `import serial/utils`for portinlistSerialPorts():echo port

Reading from/writing to a serial port (echoing data)

import serial# Or: `import serial/serialport`let port=newSerialPort("COM1")# use 9600bps, no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bitport.open(9600,Parity.None,8,StopBits.One)# You can modify the baud rate, parity, databits, etc. after opening the portport.baudRate=2400var receiveBuffer=newString(1024)whiletrue:let numReceived= port.read(receiveBuffer)discard port.write(receiveBuffer[0..< numReceived])

Using the SerialStream

import serial# Or: `import serial/serialstream`let port=newSerialStream("COM1",9600,Parity.None,8,StopBits.One, buffered=true)whiletrue:# Read a line from the serial port then write it back.  port.writeLine(port.readLine())
