`pynmeagps` is an original Python 3 parser aimed *primarily* at the subset of the NMEA 0183 &copy; v4 protocol relevant to GNSS/GPS receivers.

The intention is to make it as easy as possible to read, parse and utilise NMEA GNSS/GPS messages in Python applications. 

The `pynmeagps` homepage is located at [https://github.com/semuconsulting/pynmeagps](https://github.com/semuconsulting/pynmeagps).

Companion libraries are available which handle UBX &copy; and RTCM3 &copy; messages:

- [pyubx2](http://github.com/semuconsulting/pyubx2) (installing `pyubx2` via pip also installs `pynmeagps` and `pyrtcm`)
- [pyrtcm](http:/github.com/semuconsulting/pyrtcm)

The library implements a comprehensive set of outbound (GET) and inbound (SET/POLL) GNSS NMEA messages relating to GNSS/GPS and Maritime devices, but is readily [extensible](#extensibility). Refer to [`NMEA_MSGIDS`](https://github.com/semuconsulting/pynmeagps/blob/master/src/pynmeagps/nmeatypes_core.py#L224) and [`NMEA_MSGIDS_PROP`](https://github.com/semuconsulting/pynmeagps/blob/master/src/pynmeagps/nmeatypes_core.py#L367) for the complete dictionary of standard and proprietary messages currently supported. The library also supports [user-defined NMEA message definitions](#userdef) (e.g. for product development). While the [NMEA 0183 protocol itself is proprietary](https://www.nmea.org/nmea-0183.html), the definitions here have been collated from public domain sources.

`pynmeagps` is compatible with Python>=3.10. In the following, `python3` & `pip` refer to the Python 3 executables. You may need to substitute `python` for `python3`, depending on your particular environment (*on Windows it's generally `python`*).

The recommended way to install the latest version of `pynmeagps` is with [pip](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip/):

```shell
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pynmeagps
```

If required, `pynmeagps` can also be installed into a virtual environment, e.g.:

```shell
python3 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate # (or env\Scripts\activate on Windows)
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pynmeagps
```

## <a name="reading">Reading (Streaming)</a>

```
class pynmeagps.nmeareader.NMEAReader(stream, **kwargs)
```

You can create an `NMEAReader` object by calling the constructor with an active stream object. 
The stream object can be any data stream which supports a `read(n) -> bytes` method (e.g. File or Serial, with 
or without a buffer wrapper). `pynmeagps` implements an internal `SocketWrapper` class to allow sockets to be read in the same way as other streams (see example below).

Individual input NMEA messages can then be read using the `NMEAReader.read()` function, which returns both the raw data (as bytes) and the parsed data (as an `NMEAMessage` object, via the `parse()` method). The function is thread-safe in so far as the incoming data stream object is thread-safe. `NMEAReader` also implements an iterator.

The constructor accepts the following optional keyword arguments:

* `msgmode`: 0 = GET (default, i.e. output _from_ receiver), 1 = SET (i.e. input _to_ receiver), 2 = POLL (i.e. query _to_ receiver in anticipation of response back)
* `nmeaonly`: True = raise error if stream contains non-NMEA data, False = ignore non-NMEA data (default)
* `validate`: validation flags `VALCKSUM` (0x01) = validate checksum (default), `VALMSGID` (0x02) = validate msgId (i.e. raise error if unknown NMEA message is received)
* `quitonerror`: `ERR_IGNORE` (0) = ignore errors,  `ERR_LOG` (1) = log continue, `ERR_RAISE` (2) = (re)raise (1)
* `userdefined`: An optional user-defined payload definition dictionary, supplementing the existing `NMEA_PAYLOADS_GET` and `NMEA_PAYLOADS_GET_PROP` dictionaries (None).
* `encoding`: optional encoding for socket stream input, 0 = none, 1 = chunk, 2 = gzip, 4 = compress, 8 = deflate (can be OR'd) (0)

Examples:

* Serial input - this example will ignore any non-NMEA data.

```python
from serial import Serial
from pynmeagps import NMEAReader
with Serial('/dev/tty.usbmodem14101', 9600, timeout=3) as stream:
  nmr = NMEAReader(stream)
  raw_data, parsed_data = nmr.read()
  if parsed_data is not None:
    print(parsed_data)
```

* File input (using iterator) - this example will produce a `NMEAStreamError` if non-NMEA data is encountered.

```python
from pynmeagps import NMEAReader
with open('nmeadata.log', 'rb') as stream:
  nmr = NMEAReader(stream, nmeaonly=True)
  for raw_data, parsed_data in nmr: 
    print(parsed_data)
```

* Socket input (using iterator):

```python
import socket
from pynmeagps import NMEAReader
with socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) as stream:
  stream.connect(("localhost", 50007))
  nmr = NMEAReader(stream)
  for raw_data, parsed_data in nmr:
    print(parsed_data)
```

* <a name="userdef">User-defined NMEA message definition dictionary:</a>

```python
from pynmeagps import NMEAReader, DE, CH

NMEA_PROD_DEVEL = {
    "XX1": {
        "roll": DE,
        "pitch": DE,
        "yaw": DE,
        "status": CH,
    }
}

with open('testfile.log', 'rb') as stream:
    nmr = NMEAReader(stream, userdefined=NMEA_PROD_DEVEL)
    for raw_data, parsed_data in nmr:
        print(parsed_data)
```
```
<NMEA(PXX1, roll=0.3455, pitch=1.5456, yaw=18.1844, status="SYNC")>
```

---
## <a name="parsing">Parsing</a>

You can parse individual NMEA messages using the static `NMEAReader.parse(message)` function, which takes a string or bytes containing an NMEA message and returns an `NMEAMessage` object.

Note that latitude and longitude are parsed as signed decimal values for ease of use. Helper methods `latlon2dms` and `latlon2dmm` are available to convert decimal degrees to d°m′s.s″ or d°m.m′ display format.

Attributes within repeating groups are parsed with a two-digit suffix (svid_01, svid_02, etc.).

The `parse()` function accepts the following optional keyword arguments:

* `msgmode`: 0 = GET (default), 1 = SET, 2 = POLL
* `validate`: validation flags `VALCKSUM` (0x01) = validate checksum (default), `VALMSGID` (0x02) = validate msgId (i.e. raise error if unknown NMEA message is received)
* `quitonerror`: `ERR_IGNORE` (0) = ignore errors,  `ERR_LOG` (1) = log continue, `ERR_RAISE` (2) = (re)raise (1)
* `userdefined`: An optional user-defined payload definition dictionary, supplementing the existing `NMEA_PAYLOADS_GET` and `NMEA_PAYLOADS_GET_PROP` dictionaries (None).

Example:

```python
from pynmeagps import NMEAReader
msg = NMEAReader.parse('$GNGLL,5327.04319,S,00214.41396,E,223232.00,A,A*68\r\n')
print(msg)
```
```
<NMEA(GNGLL, lat=-53.45072, NS=S, lon=2.240233, EW=E, time=22:32:32, status=A, posMode=A)>
```

The `NMEAMessage` object exposes different public attributes depending on its message ID,
e.g. the `RMC` message has the following attributes:

```python
from pynmeagps import latlon2dms, latlon2dmm
print(msg)
print(msg.msgID)
print(msg.lat, msg.lon)
print(msg.spd)
print(latlon2dms((msg.lat, msg.lon)))
print(latlon2dmm((msg.lat, msg.lon)))

```
```
<NMEA(GNRMC, time=22:18:38, status=A, lat=52.62063, NS=N, lon=-2.16012, EW=W, spd=37.84, cog=, date=2021-03-05, mv=, mvEW=, posMode=A)>
'RMC'
(52.62063, -2.16012)
37.84
('52°37′14.268″N', '2°9′36.432″W')
('52°37.2378′N', '2°9.6072′W')
```

If the NMEA sentence type is unrecognised or not yet implemented (*e.g. due to definition not yet being in the public domain*) and the `VALMSGID` validation flag is *NOT* set,
 `NMEAMessage` will parse the message to a NOMINAL structure e.g.:

```python
from pynmeagps import NMEAReader, VALCKSUM
msg = NMEAReader.parse('$GNACN,103607.00,ECN,E,A,W,A,test,C*67\r\n', validate=VALCKSUM)
print(msg)
```
```
<NMEA(GNACN, NOMINAL, field_01=103607.00, field_02=ECN, field_03=E, field_04=A, field_05=W, field_06=A, field_07=test, field_08=C)>
```

---
## <a name="generating">Generating</a>

```
class pynmeagps.nmeamessage.NMEAMessage(talker: str, msgID: str, msgmode: int, **kwargs)
```

You can create an `NMEAMessage` object by calling the constructor with the following parameters:
1. talker (must be a valid talker from `pynmeagps.NMEA_TALKERS`)
1. message id (must be a valid id from `pynmeagps.NMEA_MSGIDS` or `pynmeagps.NMEA_MSGIDS_PROP`)
1. msgmode (0=GET, 1=SET, 2=POLL)
1. hpnmeamode - boolean flag to signify high-precision NMEA mode (7 dp rather than 5) (False)
1. validate - integer flag for checksum and/or message type validation (0=VALNONE, 1=VALCKSUM, 2=VALMSGID) (1)
1. userdefined - an optional user-defined payload definition dictionary (None)
1. (optional) a series of keyword parameters representing the message payload

The 'msgmode' parameter signifies whether the message payload refers to a:

* GET message (i.e. output from the receiver - NB these would normally be generated via the NMEAReader.read() or NMEAReader.parse() methods but can also be created manually)
* SET message (i.e. command input to the receiver)
* POLL message (i.e. query input to the receiver in anticipation of a response back)

The message payload can be defined via keyword arguments in one of two ways: 
1. A single keyword parameter of `payload` containing the full payload as a list of string values (any other keyword parameters will be ignored).
2. One or more keyword parameters corresponding to individual message attributes. Any attributes not explicitly provided as keyword parameters will be set to a nominal value according to their type. For position messages, the `NS` or `EW` values will be derived from the sign of the `lat` or `lon` values and need not be provided, e.g. if `lat` = -32.4, `NS` will be "S", if `lon` = -1.34, `EW` will be "W" (_any provided `NS` or `EW` values will be overridden accordingly_). 

e.g. Create a GLL message, passing the entire payload as a list of strings in native NMEA format:

```python
from pynmeagps import NMEAMessage, GET
pyld=['4330.00000','N','00245.000000','W','120425.234','A','A']
msg = NMEAMessage('GN', 'GLL', GET, payload=pyld)
print(msg)
```
```
<NMEA(GNGLL, lat=43.5, NS=N, lon=-2.75, EW=W, time=12:04:25.234000, status=A, posMode=A)>
```

e.g. Create GLL (GET) and GNQ (POLL) message, passing individual typed values as keywords, with any omitted keywords defaulting to nominal values (in the GLL example, the 'time' parameter has been omitted and has defaulted to the current time):

```python
from pynmeagps import NMEAMessage, GET
msg = NMEAMessage('GN', 'GLL', GET, lat=43.5, lon=-2.75, status='A', posMode='A')
print(msg)
```
```
<NMEA(GNGLL, lat=43.5, NS='N', lon=-2.75, EW='W', time='12:04:25.234745', status='A', posMode='A')>
```

```python
from pynmeagps import NMEAMessage, POLL
msg = NMEAMessage('EI', 'GNQ', POLL, msgId='RMC')
print(msg)
```
```
<NMEA(EIGNQ, msgId=RMC)>
```

By default, NMEA position message payloads store lat/lon to 5dp of minutes (i.e. (d)ddmm.mmmmm). An optional boolean keyword argument `hpnmeamode` increases this to 7dp (i.e. (d)ddmm.mmmmmmm) when set to True, e.g.

```python
from pynmeagps import NMEAMessage, GET
msgsp = NMEAMessage('GN', 'GLL', GET, lat=43.123456789, lon=-2.987654321, status='A', posMode='A', hpnmeamode=0) # standard precision
print(msgsp)
msghp = NMEAMessage('GN', 'GLL', GET, lat=-43.123456789, lon=2.987654321, status='A', posMode='A', hpnmeamode=1) # high precision
print(msghp)
```
```
NMEAMessage('GN','GLL', 0, payload=['4307.40741', 'N', '00259.25926', 'W', '095045.78', 'A', 'A'])
NMEAMessage('GN','GLL', 0, payload=['4307.4074073', 'S', '00259.2592593', 'E', '094824.88', 'A', 'A'])
```

**NB:** Once instantiated, an `NMEAMessage` object is immutable.

See [pynmeagps._usage.py](https://github.com/semuconsulting/pynmeagps/blob/master/examples/pynmeagps_usage.py) for further examples.

---
## <a name="serializing">Serializing</a>

The `NMEAMessage` class implements a `serialize()` method to convert an `NMEAMessage` object to a bytes array suitable for writing to an output stream.

```python
from serial import Serial
from pynmeagps import NMEAMessage, POLL
stream = Serial('COM6', 38400, timeout=3)
msg = NMEAMessage('EI','GNQ', POLL, msgId='RMC')
print(msg.serialize())
stream.write(msg.serialize())
```
```
b'$EIGNQ,RMC*24\r\n'
```

---
## <a name="utilities">Utility Methods</a>
 
 `pynmeagps` provides the following utility methods:

## <a name="examples">Examples</a>

The following command line examples can be found in the `/examples` folder:

1. `nmeapoller.py` illustrates how to read, write and display NMEA messages 'concurrently' using threads and queues. This represents a useful generic pattern for many end user applications.

1. `nmeafile.py` illustrates how to implement an NMEA datalog file reader using `pynmeagps.NMEAReader` iterator functionality.

1. `nmeasocket.py` illustrates how to implement a TCP Socket reader for NMEA messages using NMEAReader iterator functionality.

1. `gpxtracker.py` illustrates a simple utility to convert an NMEA datalog file to a `*.gpx` track file using `pynmeagps.NMEAReader`.

1. `/webserver/nmeaserver.py` illustrates a simple HTTP web server wrapper around `pynmeagps.NMEAReader`; it presents data from selected NMEA messages as a web page http://localhost:8080 or a RESTful API http://localhost:8080/gps.

1. `utilities.py` illustrates how to use various `pynmeagps` utility methods.
---
## <a name="extensibility">Extensibility</a>

The NMEA protocol is principally defined in the modules `nmeatypes_*.py` as a series of dictionaries. Additional message types 
can be readily added to the appropriate dictionary. Message payload definitions must conform to the following rules:

```
1. attribute names must be unique within each message class
2. avoid reserved names 'msgID', 'talker', 'payload', 'checksum'.
3. attribute types must be one of the valid types (IN, DE, CH, etc.)
4. repeating groups must be defined as a tuple ('numr', {dict}), where:
   'numr' is either:
     a. an integer representing a fixed number of repeats e.g. 32
     b. a string representing the name of a preceding attribute containing the number of repeats e.g. 'numSv'
     c. 'None' for an indeterminate repeating group. Only one such group is permitted per payload and it must be at the end.
   {dict} is the nested dictionary of repeating items
```

## <a name="cli">Command Line Utility</a>

A command line utility `gnssstreamer` is available via the `pygnssutils` package. This is capable of reading and parsing NMEA, UBX and RTCM3 data from a variety of input sources (e.g. serial, socket and file) and outputting to a variety of media in a variety of formats. See https://github.com/semuconsulting/pygnssutils for further details.

To install `pygnssutils`:
```
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pygnssutils
```

For help with the `gnssstreamer` utility, type:
```
gnssstreamer -h
```
