Embedded TCP/IP stack: Shell service API

FNET

Embedded TCP/IP stack  4.1.0

Detailed Description

The shell service provides application-specific command-line interface.
It runs on asigned serial stream, parses the input text, decodes the command name and arguments and calls back user-specified functions assigned to each command.

After the Shell service is initialized by calling the fnet_shell_init() function, the user application should call the main service polling function fnet_service_poll() periodically in background.

For example:

...
// ************************************************************************
// * The table of the main shell commands.
// *************************************************************************
static const struct fnet_shell_command fapp_cmd_tab [] =
{
{ "?", 0, 0, fnet_shell_help_cmd,"Display this help message.", ""},
{ "set", 0, 2, fapp_set_cmd, "Set parameter.", "[<parameter> <value>]"},
{ "show", 0, 0, fapp_show, "Show parameters.", "" },
{ "info", 0, 0, fapp_netif_info_cmd, "Show interface info.", ""},
{ "dhcp", 0, 1, fapp_dhcp_cln_cmd, "Start DHCP client.", "[release|reboot]"},
{ "http", 0, 1, fapp_http_cmd, "Start HTTP Server.", "[release]"},
{ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
};
// ************************************************************************
// * The main shell control data structure.
// *************************************************************************
struct fnet_shell fapp_shell =
{
fapp_cmd_tab,
"PROMT> ",
fapp_shell_on_init,
};
fnet_shell_desc_t fapp_shell_desc = 0; // Shell descriptor.
...
...
main()
{
struct fnet_shell_params shell_params;
...
shell_params.shell = &fapp_shell;
shell_params.cmd_line_buffer = fapp_cmd_line_buffer;
shell_params.cmd_line_buffer_size = sizeof(fapp_cmd_line_buffer);
shell_params.stream = FNET_SERIAL_STREAM_DEFAULT; // Use default stream.
shell_params.echo = FNET_TRUE; // Enable echo.
...
if((fapp_shell_desc = fnet_shell_init(&shell_params)) != 0)
{
fnet_printf("\n Shell started.\n");
while(1)
{
// Do something.
...
}
}
else
{
fnet_printf("\n Shell initialization is failed.\n");
}
...
}
