javascript knx library in typescript

This will grow to a KNX library for talking to the KNX bus via KNXnet/IP without dependency to an additional eibd or knxd service running.

Do not use in production yet, this is still in development! Help is always welcome.

Usage

For now, see src/examples/busmonitor.ts as starting point.

Features / High level ToDo's

• fully implemented in typescript to be used directly in typescript projects
• implemented wherever applicable as defined in the latest KNX Specifications (at the time of writing 2.1 from 2013) of KNX Association.
• Connection Support
  • Tunnel connection
    • as client
      • auto discovery with search request over multicast
    • as server (knx ip router)
  • Router connection
    • as client
    • as server (knx ip router)
• Additional functions
  • support for handling DPT conversion
    • support to import knx project GA's for automatically convert to the correct DPT
  • support for optional caching layer to save last seen values by group addresses.
• testable with test's

Ideas for the future

• implement UdpSocket based on chrome.sockets.udp for support to run in the browser

ToDo

• testing
  • classes
    • UdpSocket
    • IPHelper
    • KnxProtocol
    • KnxConnection
      • KnxTunnelConnection
      • KnxRouterConnection
    • implement tests (should work without hardware by talking to itself and hard coded frames)
• KNXProtocol improve parsing of packages (try rx implementation)
• implement example main app function as busmonitor
  • still requires DPT handling
• aside to the library, direct usable command line script to write or read to the KNX GA's
