# FaSTTUBe CAN HAL Abstraction Layer
This repository contains an abstraction layer to provide a simplified & unified
interface to the STM32 bxCAN and FDCAN peripherals.
## Installation
Simply add the repository to your `Core/Lib` directory. You can also add it as a
git submodule:
mkdir -p Core/Lib
cd Core/Lib
git submodule add ssh://git@git.fasttube.de:313/FaSTTUBe/can-halal.git
The library needs to be told what STM family you're using, so make sure one of
the following symbols is defined when `can-halal.c` is compiled or `can-halal.h`
is included:
- `STM32F3`
- `STM32H7`
When using the FDCAN peripheral (H7 series), you also need to define
`FTCAN_NUM_FILTERS` (and set it to the value of "Std Filters Nbr" you configured
in your `.ioc`).
If you use
[VSCode with the stm-32-for-vscode extension](https://podio.com/fasttubede/modulubergreifend/apps/tech-tutorials/items/57),
you can add these definitions in the `STM32-for-VSCode-config.yaml` file, e.g.:
```yaml
# Compiler definitions. The -D prefix for the compiler will be automatically added.
cDefinitions:
- STM32H7
- FTCAN_NUM_FILTERS=32
```
## Usage
1. Include `can-halal.h`
2. Call `ftcan_init()` with the appropriate handle
3. Call `ftcan_add_filter()` with all your filters
4. To transmit messages, call `ftcan_transmit()`
5. When a message is received, `ftcan_msg_received_cb()` is called. It has a
default empty implementation, which you can simply override.
