rf24-rs

This is a pure-rust driver for the nRF24L01 wireless transceivers.

Supported platforms

This project aims to support the embedded rust ecosystem. This includes but is not limited to Linux on RPi. Other points of interest:

• crates.io for embedded-hal crates
• the awesome embedded rust list
• the embedded-hal framework

API Docs

The Rust API documentation is hosted at docs.rs/rf24-rs.

Here, you will find the API for FFI (Foreign Function Interface) bindings:

• Node.js bindings
• Python bindings

Goals

Here is the intended roadmap:

• implement driver for the nRF24L01 (OTA compatible with RF24 library)

  This should be HAL-agnostic in terms of MCU. It would also be nice to reimplement the same API (using rust's trait feature) for use on nRF5x radios.

• implement a fake BLE API for the nRF24L01 (see #4)

• implement network layers (OTA compatible with RF24Network and RF24Mesh libraries)

• implement ESB support for nRF5x MCUs. This might be guarded under cargo features.

Why?

Mostly because I ❤️ rust. There are other driver libraries for the nRF24L01 in pure rust, but they all seem unmaintained or designed to be application-specific. There's even a crate to use the nRF5x chips' ESB support, but this too seems lacking maintainers' attention.
