Serial Logger

This project logs a serial port and writes the content in a file on the system.

The first parameter is the serial port and the seconde the baudrate.

Example

./serial_logger /dev/ttyUSB0 115200

This creates a folder in the home directory with "log_files/YEAR/YEAR-MONTH/YEAR-MONTH-DAY/HHMM.log".

Additionally, the logger writes the output on the screen, where it is called. So it loggs and shows the serial output of e.g. a device.

Per default, the logger writes the timestamp in front of the output. You can prevent the logger from this with an extra option:

./serial_logger /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 false
