Rust language bindings for ev3dev
Notice
Currently this project is not compatible with the BrickPi platform.
Usage
extern crate ev3dev_lang_rust;
use ev3dev_lang_rust::Ev3Result;
use ev3dev_lang_rust::motors::{LargeMotor, MotorPort};
use ev3dev_lang_rust::sensors::ColorSensor;
fn main() -> Ev3Result<()> {
// Get large motor on port outA.
let large_motor = LargeMotor::get(MotorPort::OutA)?;
// Set command "run-direct".
large_motor.run_direct()?;
// Run motor.
large_motor.set_duty_cycle_sp(50)?;
// Find color sensor. Always returns the first recognised one.
let color_sensor = ColorSensor::find()?;
// Switch to rgb mode.
color_sensor.set_mode_rgb_raw()?;
// Get current rgb color tuple.
println!("Current rgb color: {:?}", color_sensor.get_rgb()?);
Ok(())

Build binary for ev3dev
cargo build --release --target armv5te-unknown-linux-gnueabi
The
--release
flag is optional. However, it can speedup the execution time by a factor of 30.
The target binary is now in target/armv5te-unknown-linux-gnueabi/release/{application_name}
