Layout
src/modbus-*.js, src/modbus-server.js
src/core/
modbus/ # built — do not hand-edit
test/units/, test/e2e/
Testing
const helper = require('node-red-node-test-helper')
helper.init(require.resolve('node-red'))
Dynamic ports: test/helper/test-helper-extensions.js
Server Node
Modbus-Server uses jsmodbus — stays in v5 package. Spec server changes in Team 1.
Debug
DEBUG=contribModbus* npm run test:units
OSS
- StandardJS, BSD-3-Clause
- Stable public API in v5
- CHANGELOG for user-visible changes
Commands
npm run build && npm run lint && npm test
npm run test:units
npm run mocha:base -- test/units/modbus-server-test.js
