Arduino Yún Console Read |
Parse information from the Console and repeat it back. |
This example for a Yún device reads data coming from Bridge using Console.read() and stores it in a string.
To see the Console, pick your Yún's name and IP address in the Port menu then open the Serial Monitor. You can also see it by opening a terminal window and typing: ssh root@ yourYunsName.local 'telnet localhost 6571' then pressing enter. When prompted for the password, enter it.
When running this example, make sure your computer is on the same network as the Yún device.
-
Yún board or shield
-
computer and Yún device on the same wireless network
There is no circuit for this example.
image developed using Fritzing. For more circuit examples, see the Fritzing project page
Include the Console library, which inherits from Bridge.
#include <Console.h>
Create a string to hold the information from the Bridge
String name;
In setup() initialize the Bridge and Console. Wait for a Console connection, then ask for some information :
void setup() {
Bridge.begin();
Console.begin();
while (!Console);
Console.println("Hi, what's your name?");
}
In loop(), check to see if there are bytes in the Console buffer. If there's something available, read the the oldest character into a local variable.
void loop() {
if (Console.available() > 0) {
char c = Console.read();
If the character is a newline ("\n"), it is the last character in the incoming string. Print out the string to the Console, ask for more information, and clear the string.
if (c == '\n') {
Console.print("Hi ");
Console.print(name);
Console.println("! Nice to meet you!");
Console.println();
Console.println("Hi, what's your name?");
name = "";
}
}
If the character in the buffer is not a newline, add it to the end of the string.
else {
name += c;
}
}
}
The complete sketch is below :
