# esp-idf-can2http
CANbus to http bridge using esp32.
It's purpose is to be a bridge between a CAN-Bus and a HTTP-Server.

# Software requirement
ESP-IDF V5.0 or later.
ESP-IDF V4.4 release branch reached EOL in July 2024.
ESP-IDF V5.1 is required when using ESP32-C6.

# Hardware requirements
- SN65HVD23x CAN-BUS Transceiver
SN65HVD23x series has 230/231/232.
They differ in standby/sleep mode functionality.
Other features are the same.

- Termination resistance
I used 150 ohms.

You can use static IP.
![config-wifi-2](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6020549/125028738-80423800-e0c3-11eb-984f-9dc4f892bdb6.jpg)

## External HTTP Server Setting
The External HTTP Server receives CAN Bus received data.
![config-http](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6020549/160263251-1b1a4771-a5f0-43f2-b75e-572fa6904ac9.jpg)

__Note__
The Built-in HTTP Server receives CAN Bus transmittion data.

# Definition from CANbus to HTTP
When CANbus data is received, it is sent by HTTP POST according to csv/can2http.csv.
The file can2http.csv has three columns.
In the first column you need to specify the CAN Frame type.
The CAN frame type is either S(Standard frame) or E(Extended frame).
In the second column you have to specify the CAN-ID as a __hexdecimal number__.
In the last column you have to specify the HTTP-POST-Path of external HTTP server.
Each CAN-ID is allowed to appear only once in the whole file.

```
S,101,/post
E,101,/post
S,103,/post
E,103,/post
```

When a CAN frame with ID 0x101 is received, POST with the 'canid':257.
When a CAN frame with ID 0x103 is received, POST with the 'canid':259.

POST Parameter Example:
CAN-ID is a decimal number, not a hexadecimal number.

```
{"canid":257, "frame": "standard", "data": [16, 17, 18]}
{"canid":257, "frame": "extended", "data": [16, 17, 18]}
{"canid":259, "frame": "standard", "data": [16, 17, 18]}
{"canid":259, "frame": "extended", "data": [16, 17, 18]}
```

__CAN messages not registered in csv/can2http.csv are discarded and not POSTed to HTTP.__

# Definition from HTTP to CANbus
Not exist.
You can send any CAN-ID.

# Send CANBus frame using curl
CAN-ID is specified in __decimal number__.
```
$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"canid": 513, "frame": "standard", "data": [16, 17, 18]}' http://esp32-server.local:8000/api/twai/send
twai send successfully

$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"canid": 513, "frame": "extended", "data": [16, 17, 18]}' http://esp32-server.local:8000/api/twai/send
twai send successfully
```

# Visualize CAN-Frame

## Using python
There is a lot of information on the internet about the Python + visualization library.
- [matplotlib](https://matplotlib.org/)
- [seaborn](https://seaborn.pydata.org/index.html)
- [bokeh](https://bokeh.org/)
- [plotly](https://plotly.com/python/)

## Using node.js
There is a lot of information on the internet about the node.js + __real time__ visualization library.
- [epoch](https://epochjs.github.io/epoch/real-time/)
- [plotly](https://plotly.com/javascript/streaming/)
- [chartjs-plugin-streaming](https://nagix.github.io/chartjs-plugin-streaming/1.9.0/)

# Troubleshooting
There is a module of SN65HVD230 like this.
![SN65HVD230-1](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6020549/80897499-4d204e00-8d34-11ea-80c9-3dc41b1addab.JPG)

There is a __120 ohms__ terminating resistor on the left side.
![SN65HVD230-22](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6020549/89281044-74185400-d684-11ea-9f55-830e0e9e6424.JPG)

I have removed the terminating resistor.
And I used a external resistance of __150 ohms__.
A transmission fail is fixed.
![SN65HVD230-33](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6020549/89280710-f7857580-d683-11ea-9b36-12e36910e7d9.JPG)

If the transmission fails, these are the possible causes.
- There is no receiving app on CanBus.
- The speed does not match the receiver.
- There is no terminating resistor on the CanBus.
- There are three terminating resistors on the CanBus.
- The resistance value of the terminating resistor is incorrect.
- Stub length in CAN bus is too long. See [here](https://e2e.ti.com/support/interface-group/interface/f/interface-forum/378932/iso1050-can-bus-stub-length).
