# SerialPortWatcher

[![MIT License](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-green.svg)](LICENSE)

Detects serial port connection and disconnection events in Windows using WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation). This library monitors serial port availability in real-time, enabling dynamic response to new port connections and disconnections.

## Installation

Install the NuGet package from [here](https://www.nuget.org/packages/SerialPortWatcher).

## Usage/Examples

Here's an example of how to use `SerialPortWatcher` in your application:

```cs

namespace SerialPortWatcher.Example

{

    internal class Program

    {

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            SerialPortEventWatcher serialPortEventWatcher = new SerialPortEventWatcher();

            serialPortEventWatcher.PortConnected += SerialPortEventWatcher_PortConnected;

            serialPortEventWatcher.PortDisconnected += SerialPortEventWatcher_PortDisconnected;

            serialPortEventWatcher.Start();

            Console.WriteLine("Watching Serial Port Connect/Disconnect Events.");

            Console.ReadKey();

            serialPortEventWatcher.Stop();

            serialPortEventWatcher.Dispose();

        }

        private static void SerialPortEventWatcher_PortConnected(object? sender, SerialPortWatcherEventArgs e)

        {

            Console.WriteLine($"Serial Port Connected : {e.PortName}.");

        }

        private static void SerialPortEventWatcher_PortDisconnected(object? sender, SerialPortWatcherEventArgs e)

        {

            Console.WriteLine($"Serial Port Disconnected : {e.PortName}.");

        }

    }

}

```
