Serial Monitor

The Serial Monitor extension for Visual Studio Code provides a way to read from and write to serial ports.

This repository is used for tracking feedback and for exposing the public API. It contains no source code for the extension itself.

Public API for the ms-vscode.vscode-serial-monitor VS Code extension

The purpose of this API is to allow for any extension to interact with Microsoft's Serial Monitor extension for VSCode.

When your extension activates, you can use the following code to get access to the API:

    import {SerialMonitorApi, Version, getSerialMonitorApi, LineEnding, Parity, StopBits, Port} from '@microsoft/vscode-serial-monitor-api';
 
    let api: SerialMonitorApi|undefined = await getSerialMonitorApi(Version.latest, extensionContext);
    if (api) {
        // open a serial port
        const port: Port = await api.startMonitoringPort({port: "COM1", baudRate: 115200, lineEnding: LineEnding.None, dataBits: 8, stopBits: StopBits.One, parity: Parity.None});
        port.onClosed(() => console.log("My port was closed"));

        const tcpConnection: Port = await api.startMonitoringTCPConnection({host: "localhost", port: 1234, swoEnabled: false});
        port.onClosed(() => console.log("My tcp port was closed"));
    }
    // Dispose of the 'api' in your extension's deactivate() method.
