tty_sse_server

HTTP Server Side Events server based on pyuv that listens to stdin as TTY (e.g serial port) and pushes its data to browser via SSE

This is a pyuv (event loop) implementation of a server that listens with no blocking to tty stdin (e.g. a serial port) and sends the read data to browsers that connect via TCP using Server Side Events (EventSource)

Usage example:

    python tty_sse_server.py < /dev/tty.Bluetooth-Serial

Will listen to tty.Bluetooth-Serial and send input to browsers connected via EventSource

On the client side the only code needed is EventSource. You can try this in the browser console:

var eventSource = new EventSource('http://localhost:1234/')
eventSource.addEventListener('message', function(e){console.log(e.data);}, false);

That will start printing the serial port input data To close the connection:

eventSource.close()

Dependencies: pyuv. Install with:

sudo pip install pyuv
