Re: socketcan and perl module ?

[Oliver Hartkopp]

Hello Rastislav,

i've been on your website 2-3 years ago - it has been really improved

I don't have any knowledge about perl. But there was an attempt to support
SocketCAN network sockets in perl in 2010 (just google 'socketcan perl').

If this attempt does not help, you may be interested in kayak, which includes
a 'socketcand' for remote CAN access via network (also on localhost):

http://kayak.2codeornot2code.org/tutorial.html

Btw. don't hesitate to ask these kind of questions on the mailing list:

"linux-can@vger.kernel.org" <linux-can@vger.kernel.org>

I've put the ML on CC.

Best regards,
Oliver

Hello Oliver, 

thanks for fast answer.
Yes, you are right, there was an attempt to implement socketcan to perl:

http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.modules/2010/08/msg72366.html

It was by my request to my fiend,  I  pushed him to create module for me
:-)
Hi post it in 2010, but still not finished, I must push him again to
finish it. 

I also check your recommendation for socketcand, and it looks really good.
For tcp/ip have existing module in perl, so it seems I can do it via
socketcand.

So I will try socketcand way ...  and I will see. 

Thanks,
Rastislav

Re: socketcan and perl module ?

[Kristian Borgen]

Hi

If anyone is interested i made a Socket::Can perl module, i only used it for 
dumping can/canopen and as a quick way to configure canopen nodes, my actual 
daemon i written using canfestival so it is not stress tested, and i only used 
it on debian.

Source can found at http://kb.xpress.dk/src/canbus
