# ArduinoSimulator
A minimal Arduino simulator with ncurses "GUI"
Run `make` to build the dynamic library
See [ArduinoSimulatorExample](https://github.com/mischnic/ArduinoSimulatorExample) for how to use it
Uses code from https://github.com/arduino/Arduino and https://github.com/damellis/attiny
# Usage
- `w` = Start/stop
- `e` = Start paused/(un)pause
- `q` = Quit
Pressable Buttons have a background color.
When changing a analog input voltage, the simulation will be paused, valid formats are:
- a voltage: `2v` `2V` `3.1V` ...,
- an integer ranging from 0-1023 (0 = 0V, 1023 = VCC)
Speed:
- normal click for +1 / -1
- double click for twice / half
# API
You **need** this line at the top of your sketch: `#include "Sketch.h"`.
For code specific to the simulator and not for real devices:
#ifdef IS_SIM
/* This code will only be included when using the simulator */
#end
To set pin descriptions and have variables printed in the simulation window (or to have a different VCC apart from 5V), use the following:
void getState(Data *d, int id){
if(id & DATA_PIN){
if((id & DATA_MASK) == 1){ // pin 1
strcpy(d->desc, "LED");
}
} else if(id & DATA_INFO){
int i = 0;
if((id & DATA_MASK) == i++){
strcpy(d->desc, "VCC");
d->vtype = Data::afloat;
d->f = 5.0f;
} else if((id & DATA_MASK) == i++){
strcpy(d->desc, "counter");
d->vtype = Data::aint;
d->i = count;
} else if((id & DATA_MASK) == i++){
strcpy(d->desc, "counterEven");
d->vtype = Data::abool;
d->b = count%2 == 0;
} else if((id & DATA_MASK) == i++){
strcpy(d->desc, "counterDec");
d->vtype = Data::afloat;
d->f = count/10.0f;
} else if((id & DATA_MASK) == i++){
d->vtype = Data::aMotor;
// MotorState::NONE ::LEFT ::RIGHT
d->ms.dir = MotorState::Dirs(count%3);
// MotorState::RED ::GREEN ::WHITE
d->ms.state = MotorState::States((count/3)%3);
}
}
}
SoftwareSerial is supported, although all SoftwareSerial instances print to the same log window. Use `-1` as pin number to recreate for example an USB serial without real pins. If you use valid pin numbers, they will be marked as `SER` in the pin listing
SoftwareSerial Serial(6, 7);
// OR
SoftwareSerial Serial(-1, -1);
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Setup called");
}
