DancingQuanta / serial_listener_logger

Python utility to listen, timestamp and log data received from a serial port.

Serial Listener and Logger (SeLL)

Simple Python script to listen for messages on a serial port, timestamp every line and save it to a file named by the date.

The settings.txt file gives the required information to the script using the following format:

<SERIAL PORT ADDRESS>,<BAUDRATE>,<PARITY>,<BYTESIZE>,<EOL char>
<DATA SAVE PATH>
<short(YYYYMMDD.tsv)/long(YYY-MM-DD.tsv) data filename>,<UTC or local for the timestamp>
<compress data? 1 == YES>

The naming of the stored files follows the settings flag short/long.
