# weighbridge-simulator
A command line tool continuously send data to a serial port to simulate
weighbridge communicating.
## Install
You can install this tool by the following methods:
1. Install `weighbridge-simulator` by `pip`:
```
pip install git+ssh://git@github.com/garrett-he/weighbridge-simulator.git
```
2. Download compiled binary files from [Repository Releases][1].
## Quickstart
1. Prepare a file contains weight list in format:
```
000.000
000.020
000.160
000.420
000.780
005.660
005.800
006.040
006.120
006.100
006.080
...
```
2. Run `wb-simulator` to start simulation:
```
wb-simulator --data-file FILE
```
Then you can receive the weight values from the created port `/dev/pts/N` in *
*raw** data format.
> `weighbridge-simulator` will convert the input data into **raw**
> weighbridge format before sending it to a serial port, like:
>
> `012.345` will be converted to `543.210=`
## Usage
```
Usage: wb-simulator [OPTIONS]
A command line tool continuously send data to a serial port to simulate
weighbridge communicating.
Options:
-p, --port NAME Name of serial port.
-d, --data-file PATH Path of data file. [required]
-l, --loops N Loops of sending data set, zero means endless.
-i, --interval SECS Interval of each data.
--version Show the version and exit.
--help Show this message and exit.
```
