Packet not received

[gordon13]

I'm trying to send a packet from Python to the Arduino but the handler is never triggered. Maybe I misunderstand the packet format?

I'm using the COBS library to encode the data. Here's the packet as it is sent using the standard python serial library: b'\x03\x01\x04\x00'

Here's the Arduino code:

#include <PacketSerial.h>
PacketSerial myPacketSerial;

void setup() {
  myPacketSerial.begin(9600);
  myPacketSerial.setPacketHandler(&onPacketReceived);
}

void loop() {
  myPacketSerial.update();
}

void onPacketReceived(const uint8_t* buffer, size_t size)
{
  uint8_t tempBuffer[size];
  memcpy(tempBuffer, buffer, size);
  uint8_t id = tempBuffer[0];
  myPacketSerial.send(id, 1);
}

Why am I not getting anything back?

This lib seems to be unsupported. A much easier to use and supported serial packet library can be found here. The library also has a Python compatible (and pip-installable) package here.

It's supported. What problem are you having?

By the way, python, with test code is linked in the readme.

@gordon13 One thing of note -- the send method takes a pointer e.g.

void send(const uint8_t* buffer, size_t size) const

and you are giving it a value, thus it may not give the correct value. You may want to try:

...
  uint8_t id = tempBuffer[0];
  myPacketSerial.send(&id, 1);
...

Also, if the value of your id is actually equal to zero, you may be running into this issue: https://github.com/bakercp/PacketSerial/issues/24

I'm having the same issue.. I'm sending data and trying to send back data after it is received. It seems onPacketReceived is not firing. Any Ideas?
