asterix 1.0.0

A Asterix decode library.

This packet decodes Asterix messages

Features

Can decode Asterix messages in categories 34 and 48. We're working in support for cat 8, 1 and 2.

Getting started

Download the package and import as follow:

import 'package:asterix/asterix.dart';
import 'package:asterix/src/asterix34.dart';
import 'package:asterix/src/asterix48.dart';

void main() {
  final asterixDecoder = AsterixDecoder();
  // Read asterix file
  final file = File('rec_bin_001.bin',); // only asterix payload, don't suport .pcap
  final stream = await file.readAsBytes();
  // Read lenght fields of the first asterix packet
  final length = stream[1] * 256 + stream[2];
  asterixPacket = stream.sublist(0, length);
  Asterix asterixInfo = asterixDecoder.fromBinary(asterixPacket);


}

Usage

this example demonstrates the usage for decode asterix 34 service messages

if (asterixInfo.category == 34) {
    final packet = asterixInfo as Asterix34;
    if (packet.antennaRotationPeriod != null) {
        print(packet.antennaRotationPeriod);
    }
    if (packet.sectorNumber != null) {
        final deltaTheta =
            (packet.sectorNumber! != 0.0
                ? packet.sectorNumber!
                : 360.0) -
            lastSector;
        final deltaTime = packet.timeOfDay! - lastTimeSector;
        print("${packet.sectorNumber} ->  ${deltaTheta / deltaTime}");
        lastSector = packet.sectorNumber!;
        lastTimeSector = packet.timeOfDay!;
    }
}

The fields on class Asterix subclasses can be null or a value depending the info. Null values meaning no information.
