## SerialMessage
**Path**: [`src/SerialMessage.cpp`](../src/SerialMessage.cpp)
**Revision History**: Initial documentation
A serial communication component that handles reading, parsing, and processing of command messages from a serial stream. This component provides buffered serial communication with configurable message parsing intervals for industrial applications.
## REQUIREMENTS
### Hardware
- Serial communication interface (UART)
- No specific pin requirements (uses provided Stream object)
### Software Dependencies
- ArduinoLog library for logging
- Vector library for data structures
- Arduino Stream interface
- Component base class
### Configuration
- `SERIAL_RX_BUFFER_SIZE`: Receive buffer size (default: 256 bytes)
- `SERIAL_COMMAND_PARSE_INTERVAL`: Message parsing interval (default: 50ms)
## FEATURES
- Buffered serial message reading
- Command message parsing and validation
- Configurable message delimiters
- Serial connection status tracking
- Debug message handling with hex output
- Non-blocking message processing
- Integration with Component architecture
- Owner notification system for parsed messages
## DEPENDENCIES
- [`Component`](./Component.md) - Base component class
- [`CommandMessage`](./CommandMessage.md) - Message structure and parsing
- **ArduinoLog** - Logging functionality
- **Vector** - Data structure library
- **Arduino Stream** - Serial communication interface

CheckInterval --> ReadMessage: interval elapsed
CheckInterval --> Idle: interval not elapsed
ReadMessage --> ParseMessage: message available
ReadMessage --> Idle: no message
ParseMessage --> ValidateMessage: parsing successful
ParseMessage --> Idle: parsing failed
ValidateMessage --> NotifyOwner: message valid
ValidateMessage --> Idle: message invalid
NotifyOwner --> Idle: owner notified
Idle --> [*]: component destroyed
```
## TODOS
### PERFORMANCE
- Consider implementing circular buffer for improved memory efficiency
- Optimize string operations to reduce memory fragmentation
- Implement message queuing for high-frequency communication
- Add configurable buffer overflow handling
### SECURITY
- Implement message authentication for command validation
- Add input sanitization for malformed messages
- Consider implementing rate limiting for message processing
- Add checksum validation for message integrity
### COMPLIANCE
- Ensure compliance with Modbus serial communication standards
- Implement proper error handling according to industrial communication protocols
- Add support for standard industrial message formats
### RECOMMENDATIONS
- Use hardware serial interfaces for better reliability
- Configure appropriate baud rates for industrial environments
- Implement proper error recovery mechanisms
- Consider using DMA for high-speed serial communication
- Add message statistics and monitoring capabilities
## EXAMPLE
This section illustrates how the SerialMessage component is constructed and mounted:
```cpp
#ifdef ENABLE_SERIAL_COMMANDS
serialMessage = new SerialMessage(
Serial, // stream (Hardware Serial)
this // owner component
);
if (serialMessage)
{
components.push_back(serialMessage);
Log.infoln(F("SerialMessage initialized. Stream: Hardware Serial"));
}
else
{
Log.errorln(F("SerialMessage initialization failed."));
}
#endif
// Alternative with Serial1 for RS485 communication
#ifdef ENABLE_RS485_SERIAL
rs485SerialMessage = new SerialMessage(
Serial1, // stream (Hardware Serial1)
this // owner component
);
if (rs485SerialMessage)
{
components.push_back(rs485SerialMessage);
Log.infoln(F("RS485 SerialMessage initialized. Stream: Hardware Serial1"));
}
else
{
Log.errorln(F("RS485 SerialMessage initialization failed."));
}
#endif
```
### Message Handling Example
```cpp
// Owner component implements onMessage to handle parsed commands
void MyComponent::onMessage(uint16_t id, uint8_t verb, uint8_t flags,
const String& payload, Component* sender)
{
if (sender == serialMessage)
{
Log.infoln(F("Received serial command: ID=%d, Verb=%d, Payload=%s"),
id, verb, payload.c_str());
// Process the command based on ID and verb
switch (id)
{
case COMMAND_SET_CONFIG:
handleConfigCommand(verb, flags, payload);
break;
case COMMAND_GET_STATUS:
handleStatusRequest(verb, flags, payload);
break;
default:
Log.warningln(F("Unknown command ID: %d"), id);
break;
}
}
}
```
