No support for tags or type STRING, ARRAY, or LINT. about node-ethernet-ip HOT 12 OPEN

+5 for STRINGs! 😀

from node-ethernet-ip.

I am picking up development of this functionality now. Updates to come as I make progress!

from node-ethernet-ip.

Just committed STRING and LINT support to my fork: https://github.com/SerafinTech/node-ethernet-ip (Tests still need to be written: USE WITH CAUTION!)

Can we suggest adding the changes to main repo?

I would be happy to do some shop floor testing on this once it's ready. - Thanks Josh

I find that I can't read atomic array elements. e.g. with Tag type DINT[2], I can't read "Tag[0]" or "Tag[1]".

Is that expected?

Is there an expected date for string/array/udt support?

@jhenson29 I have paused development for the moment as work is pretty insane for me. I hope to get back to full speed beginning early July which would make a potential release window of mid to late July.

I apologize for the inconvenience. I will certainly update this thread when I begin adding the remaining first class functionality. If possible, I will work to get a release candidate out earlier than that. That said, pull requests are welcome and if you would like to take on the challenge to get something implemented sooner then I would appreciate the help 😄.

No need to apologize. What you’ve done so far is awesome. I have some free time this weekend. I’ll look through it, but javascript is new to me (I’m coming primarily from C#) and I normally use a .net library for EIP. I have written my own code for plain tcp sockets on both ends though so I’ll have a go at it.

Thanks man! It has been a fun project for me. Feel free to join our gitter chat if you have any questions about the code base.

That is great news. Looking forward to support of string types!

How is string type support development going?

from node-ethernet-ip.

First of all, thanks for the awesome job @cmseaton42 . Just checking if the support of these types is still on the road map? Let me know if you could use some help :)
