# Tauri Plugin - SerialPort
This plugin enables Tauri applications to communicate with serial ports, allowing for the reading and writing of data to and from connected serial devices.
## Installation
_This plugin requires Rust version **1.70** or higher._
There are three recommended methods for installing this plugin:
1. **Using crates.io and npm** (easiest, requires trust in our publishing pipeline)
2. **Directly from GitHub using git tags/revision hashes** (most secure)
3. **Git submodule in your Tauri project, then using the file protocol for source inclusion** (most secure but less convenient)
### Core Plugin
Add the following to your `Cargo.toml` file under `src-tauri/Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
tauri-plugin-serialplugin = "2.0.0-rc.4"
```
### JavaScript Bindings
Install using your preferred package manager:
```sh
pnpm add tauri-plugin-serialplugin
# or
npm add tauri-plugin-serialplugin
# or
yarn add tauri-plugin-serialplugin
# For direct GitHub installation:
pnpm add https://github.com/s00d/tauri-plugin-serialplugin#main
# or
npm add https://github.com/s00d/tauri-plugin-serialplugin#main
# or
yarn add https://github.com/s00d/tauri-plugin-serialplugin#main
```
## Usage
First, register the core plugin within your Tauri application's main setup:
`src-tauri/src/main.rs`
```rust
fn main() {
tauri::Builder::default()
.plugin(tauri_plugin_serialplugin::init())
.run(tauri::generate_context!())
.expect("error while running tauri application");
}
```
### Configuring Permissions
To use the plugin, you must define permissions in your capabilities configuration. Add the following to your `/src-tauri/capabilities/default.json` file:
```json
{
"$schema": "../gen/schemas/desktop-schema.json",
"identifier": "default",
"description": "Capability for the main window",
"windows": ["main"],
"permissions": [
"core:default",
"serialplugin:default"
]
}
```
The `serialplugin:default` permission allows basic usage of the plugin. If you need more granular permissions, you can specify them as follows:
```json
{
"$schema": "../gen/schemas/desktop-schema.json",
"identifier": "default",
"description": "Capability for the main window",
"windows": ["main"],
"permissions": [
"core:default",
"serialplugin:allow-available-ports",
"serialplugin:allow-available-ports-direct",
"serialplugin:allow-cancel-read",
"serialplugin:allow-close",
"serialplugin:allow-close-all",
"serialplugin:allow-force-close",
"serialplugin:allow-open",
"serialplugin:allow-read",
"serialplugin:allow-write",
"serialplugin:allow-write-binary"
]
}
```
### Permission Descriptions
| Permission | Description |
|---------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `serialplugin:allow-available-ports` | Allows listing of available serial ports |
| `serialplugin:deny-available-ports` | Denies listing of available serial ports |
| `serialplugin:allow-cancel-read` | Allows canceling of read operations |
| `serialplugin:deny-cancel-read` | Denies canceling of read operations |
| `serialplugin:allow-close` | Allows closing of serial ports |
| `serialplugin:deny-close` | Denies closing of serial ports |
| `serialplugin:allow-close-all` | Allows closing of all open serial ports |
| `serialplugin:deny-close-all` | Denies closing of all open serial ports |
| `serialplugin:allow-force-close` | Allows forcefully closing of serial ports |
| `serialplugin:deny-force-close` | Denies forcefully closing of serial ports |
| `serialplugin:allow-open` | Allows opening of serial ports |
| `serialplugin:deny-open` | Denies opening of serial ports |
| `serialplugin:allow-read` | Allows reading data from serial ports |
| `serialplugin:deny-read` | Denies reading data from serial ports |
| `serialplugin:allow-write` | Allows writing data to serial ports |
| `serialplugin:deny-write` | Denies writing data to serial ports |
| `serialplugin:allow-write-binary` | Allows writing binary data to serial ports |
| `serialplugin:deny-write-binary` | Denies writing binary data to serial ports |
| `serialplugin:allow-available-ports-direct` | Enables the `available_ports_direct` command without any pre-configured scope. |
| `serialplugin:deny-available-ports-direct` | Denies the `available_ports_direct` command without any pre-configured scope. |
## Example Application
An example application can be found in the `examples/serialport-test` directory of this repository. This example demonstrates basic usage of the plugin, including opening, closing, and listing serial ports.
### JavaScript API
After registering the plugin, you can access the plugin's APIs through the provided JavaScript bindings:
```javascript
import { SerialPort } from "tauri-plugin-serialplugin";
// Example: Listing available serial ports
async function listPorts() {
const ports = await SerialPort.available_ports();
console.log(ports);
}
listPorts();
```
### Additional Methods
#### `SerialPort.available_ports()`
Lists all available serial ports.
#### `SerialPort.forceClose(path: string)`
Forcefully closes the specified serial port.
#### `SerialPort.available_ports_direct()`
Retrieves a list of available serial ports using platform-specific commands. This method serves as a fallback in case `available_ports` fails to return results. It checks for connected serial ports on Windows, Linux, and macOS, returning their names in a `HashMap` format where the key is the port name and the value contains additional information about the port.
#### `SerialPort.closeAll()`
Closes all open serial ports.
#### `SerialPort.cancelListen()`
Cancels serial port monitoring.
#### `SerialPort.cancelRead()`
Cancels reading data from the serial port.
#### `SerialPort.change(options: { path?: string; baudRate?: number })`
Changes the path and/or baud rate of the serial port.
#### `SerialPort.close()`
Closes the currently opened serial port.
#### `SerialPort.disconnected(fn: (...args: any[]) => void)`
Sets up a listener for when the serial port is disconnected.
#### `SerialPort.listen(fn: (...args: any[]) => void, isDecode = true)`
Monitors serial port information and handles data using the provided callback function.
#### `SerialPort.open()`
Opens the serial port with the specified settings.
#### `SerialPort.read(options?: ReadOptions)`
Reads data from the serial port with optional settings for timeout and size.
#### `SerialPort.setBaudRate(value: number)`
Sets the baud rate of the serial port.
#### `SerialPort.setPath(value: string)`
Sets the path of the serial port.
#### `SerialPort.write(value: string)`
Writes data to the serial port.
#### `SerialPort.writeBinary(value: Uint8Array | number[])`
Writes binary data to the serial port.
### Example Code
Below is a small example demonstrating how to use the plugin to open, close, and list available serial ports:
```typescript
import { SerialPort } from 'tauri-plugin-serialplugin';
let serialport: SerialPort | undefined = undefined;
let name: string;
function openPort() {
serialport = new SerialPort({ path: name, baudRate: 9600 });
serialport
.open()
.then((res) => {
console.log('open serialport', res);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
});
}
function closePort() {
serialport
.close()
.then((res) => {
console.log('close serialport', res);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
});
}
function availablePorts() {
SerialPort.available_ports()
.then((res) => {
console.log('available_ports: ', res);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
});
}
```
