# plusml-rh56dftp Python Library

A Python library for communicating with RH56DFTP devices (tactile hand) via Modbus TCP, developed by plusml.

## Features

- Easy-to-use API for communicating with RH56DFTP tactile hand devices
- Support for reading and writing registers
- Built-in logging system for monitoring all operations
- Comprehensive register definitions including force, current, temperature, and error data
- Support for tactile data acquisition from all fingers and palm
- Modular design for easy extension

## Installation

### From PyPI (Recommended)

You can install the library directly from PyPI using pip:

```bash
pip install plusml-rh56dftp
```

### From Source

You can also install the library from the GitHub repository:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/plus-m-r/RH56DFTP_teach.git
cd RH56DFTP_teach
pip install -e .
```

### From Local Package

After building the package, you can install it from the generated wheel file:

```bash
pip install dist/plusml-rh56dftp-0.1.0-py3-none-any.whl
```

## Requirements

- Python 3.7 or higher
- pymodbus 3.11.3

## Usage

### Basic Usage

```python
# First install the library: pip install plusml-rh56dftp
from RH56DFTP.RH56DFTP_TCP import RH56DFTP_TCP
from Register.RegisterKey.ftp_registers_keys import (
    HAND_ID, FORCE_ACT_0, FORCE_ACT_1, FORCE_ACT_2,
    FORCE_ACT_3, FORCE_ACT_4, FORCE_ACT_5,
    TEMP_0, TEMP_1, TEMP_2, TEMP_3, TEMP_4, TEMP_5
)

# Initialize connection to the tactile hand
try:
    # Replace with your device's IP address and port
    client = RH56DFTP_TCP(host="192.168.123.210", port=6000)
    print("✅ Connected successfully to tactile hand")
    
    # Read device ID - using function pointer (IDE auto-complete supported)
    hand_id = client.get(HAND_ID)
    print(f"🤖 Hand ID: {hand_id}")
    
    # Write to a register (if supported) - using function pointer
    success = client.set(HAND_ID, 2)
    print(f"🔧 Set HAND_ID to 2: {success}")
    
    # Read force values from fingers - using function pointers
    print("\n💪 Force Values (g):")
    print(f"   - Pinky: {client.get(FORCE_ACT_0)} g")
    print(f"   - Ring: {client.get(FORCE_ACT_1)} g")
    print(f"   - Middle: {client.get(FORCE_ACT_2)} g")
    print(f"   - Index: {client.get(FORCE_ACT_3)} g")
    print(f"   - Thumb Bend: {client.get(FORCE_ACT_4)} g")
    print(f"   - Thumb Rotate: {client.get(FORCE_ACT_5)} g")
    
    # Read temperature values - using function pointers
    print("\n🌡️  Temperature Values (°C):")
    for i, temp_func in enumerate([TEMP_0, TEMP_1, TEMP_2, TEMP_3, TEMP_4, TEMP_5]):
        print(f"   - Actuator {i}: {client.get(temp_func)} °C")
    
    # Close connection properly
    client.close()
    print("\n👋 Connection closed")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"❌ Error: {e}")
```

### Function Pointer Auto-Complete

The library now supports IDE auto-complete for register functions. When you type `client.get(`, your IDE will display all available register functions with their documentation.

#### Key Benefits
- **IDE Auto-Complete**: No need to memorize register names
- **Type Safety**: Register functions are properly typed
- **Documentation Hints**: Each function shows register details
- **Readable Code**: More intuitive than string literals

#### Available Register Functions

The library provides functions for all 71 registers, including:
- `HAND_ID()` - Device ID
- `TEMP_0()`, `TEMP_1()`, ... - Actuator temperatures
- `FORCE_ACT_0()`, `FORCE_ACT_1()`, ... - Finger force values
- `CURRENT_0()`, `CURRENT_1()`, ... - Actuator current values
- `POS_SET_0()`, `POS_SET_1()`, ... - Position settings
- `ANGLE_SET_0()`, `ANGLE_SET_1()`, ... - Angle settings
- And many more...

### String-Based Access (Legacy)

String-based access is still supported for backward compatibility:

```python
# Legacy string-based access (still supported)
hand_id = client.get("HAND_ID")
force_0 = client.get("FORCE_ACT(0)")
temp_1 = client.get("TEMP(1)")
```

### Register Categories

The library provides predefined register names organized by function:

#### Device Configuration
- `HAND_ID`: Device ID (1-254)
- `REDU_RATIO`: Baud rate setting
- `CLEAR_ERROR`: Clear errors command
- `SAVE`: Save configuration to flash
- `RESET_PARA`: Restore factory settings

#### Finger Force Data (Read-only)
- `FORCE_ACT(0)`: Pinky finger force
- `FORCE_ACT(1)`: Ring finger force  
- `FORCE_ACT(2)`: Middle finger force
- `FORCE_ACT(3)`: Index finger force
- `FORCE_ACT(4)`: Thumb bending force
- `FORCE_ACT(5)`: Thumb rotation force

#### Actuator Data (Read-only)
- `CURRENT(0-5)`: Actuator current values (mA)
- `ERROR(0-5)`: Actuator error codes
- `TEMP(0-5)`: Actuator temperature values (°C)

#### Tactile Data (Read-only)
- Various tactile data registers for all fingers and palm
- 3x3, 12x8, and 10x8 matrix configurations
- 16-bit integer values (0-4096)

## Register Configuration

Register definitions are located in the `Register/config/configFTP` directory:
- `ftp_registers.py`: Main register configuration
- `ftp_registers_keys.py`: Register name constants

The library automatically loads these configurations during initialization.

## Logging

The library includes a built-in logging system that records:
- All `get` and `set` operations with timestamps
- Connection status and errors
- Register addresses and values

Logs are saved to `rh56dftp.log` and also printed to the console with the format:
```
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS - RH56DFTP - LEVEL - MESSAGE
```

## Development

### Building the Package

To build the package for distribution (recommended method):

```bash
python -m build
```

This will generate:
- `dist/plusml-rh56dftp-0.1.0.tar.gz` (source distribution)
- `dist/plusml-rh56dftp-0.1.0-py3-none-any.whl` (wheel distribution)
