.SH DESCRIPTION
.
The
.B rigctld
program is a radio control daemon that handles client requests via TCP
sockets.  This allows multiple user programs to share one radio (this needs
more development).  Multiple radios can be controlled on different TCP ports
by use of multiple
.B rigctld
processes.  Note that multiple processes/ports are also necessary if some
clients use extended responses and/or vfo mode.  So up to 4 processes/ports
may be needed for each combination of extended response/vfo mode.  The syntax
of the commands are the same as
.BR rigctl (1).
It is hoped that
.B rigctld
will be especially useful for client authors using languages such as Perl,
Python, PHP, and others.
.
.PP
.B rigctld
communicates to a client through a TCP socket using text commands shared with
.BR rigctl .
The protocol is simple, commands are sent to
.B rigctld
on one line and
.B rigctld
responds to
.B get
commands with the requested values, one per line, when successful, otherwise,
it responds with one line \(lqRPRT x\(rq, where \(oqx\(cq is a negative number
indicating the error code.  Commands that do not return values respond with
the line \(lqRPRT x\(rq, where \(oqx\(cq is \(oq0\(cq when successful,
otherwise is a regative number indicating the error code.  Each line is
terminated with a newline \(oq\\n\(cq character.  This protocol is primarily
for use by the
.B NET rigctl
(radio model 2) backend.
.
.PP
A separate
.B Extended Response Protocol
extends the above behavior by echoing the received command string as a header,
any returned values as a key: value pair, and the \(lqRPRT x\(rq string as the
end of response marker which includes the
.B Hamlib
success or failure value.  See the
.B PROTOCOL
section for details.  Consider using this protocol for clients that will
interact with
.B rigctld
directly through a TCP socket.
.
.PP
Keep in mind that Hamlib is BETA level software.  While a lot of backend
libraries lack complete rotator support, the basic functions are usually well
supported.
.
.PP
Please report bugs and provide feedback at the e-mail address given in the
.B BUGS
section below.  Patches and code enhancements sent to the same address are
welcome.
.
.
.SH OPTIONS
.
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax.  Short options that
take an argument may have the value follow immediately or be separated by a
space.  Long options starting with two dashes (\(oq\-\(cq) require an
\(oq=\(cq between the option and any argument.
.
.PP
Here is a summary of the supported options:
.
.TP
.BR \-m ", " \-\-model = \fIid\fP
Select radio model number.  Defaults to dummy device.
.IP
See model list (use \(lqrigctl -l\(rq).
.IP
.BR Note :
.B rigctl
(or third party software using the C API) will use radio model 2 for
.B NET rigctl
(this model number is not used for rigctld even though it shows in the model
list).
.
.TP
.BR \-r ", " \-\-rig\-file = \fIdevice\fP
Use
.I device
as the file name of the port connected to the radio.
.IP
Often a serial port, but could be a USB to serial adapter.  Typically
.IR /dev/ttyS0 ", " /dev/ttyS1 ", " /dev/ttyUSB0 ,
etc. on Linux,
.IR COM1 ", " COM2 ,
etc. on MS Windows.  The BSD flavors and Mac OS/X have their own designations.
See your system's documentation.
.IP
.IP
Can be a network address:port, e.g. 127.0.0.1:12345
.IP
The special string \(lquh\-rig\(rq may be given to enable micro-ham device
support.
.
.TP
.BR \-p ", " \-\-ptt\-file = \fIdevice\fP
Use
.I device
as the file name of the Push-To-Talk device using a device file as described
above.
.
.TP
.BR \-d ", " \-\-dcd\-file = \fIdevice\fP
Use
.I device
as the file name of the Data Carrier Detect device using a device file as
described above.
.
.TP
.BR \-P ", " \-\-ptt\-type = \fItype\fP
Use
.I type
of Push-To-Talk device.
.IP
Supported types are \(oqRIG\(cq (CAT command), \(oqDTR\(cq, \(oqRTS\(cq,
\(oqPARALLEL\(cq, \(oqNONE\(cq, overriding PTT type defined in the rig's
backend.
.IP
Some side effects of this command are that when type is set to DTR, read
PTT state comes from the
.B Hamlib
frontend, not read from the radio.  When set to NONE, PTT state cannot be read
or set even if rig backend supports reading/setting PTT status from the rig.
.
.TP
.BR \-D ", " \-\-dcd\-type = \fItype\fP
Use
.I type
of Data Carrier Detect device.
.IP
Supported types are \(oqRIG\(cq (CAT command), \(oqDSR\(cq, \(oqCTS\(cq,
\(oqCD\(cq, \(oqPARALLEL\(cq, \(oqNONE\(cq.

.I baud
rate.
.IP
Uses maximum serial speed from radio backend capabilities (set by
.B -m
above) as the default.
.
.TP
.BR \-c ", " \-\-civaddr = \fIid\fP
Use
.I id
as the CI-V address to communicate with the rig.
.IP
Only useful for Icom and some Ten-Tec rigs.
.IP
.BR Note :

.IP
The default is \n.  Recommend using $ or @ as they work on both Unix and Windows
.IP
.
.TP
.BR \-T ", " \-\-listen\-addr = \fIIPADDR\fP
Use
.I IPADDR
as the listening IP address.
.IP
The default is ANY (0.0.0.0).

.
.PP
.BR Note :
Some options may not be implemented by a given backend and will return an
error.  This is most likely to occur with the
.B \-\-set\-conf
and
.B \-\-show\-conf
options.
.
.PP
Please note that the backend for the radio to be controlled, or the radio
itself may not support some commands.  In that case, the operation will fail
with a
.B Hamlib
error code.
.
.
.SH COMMANDS
.
Commands can be sent over the TCP socket either as a single char, or as a long
command name plus the value(s) space separated on one \(oq\\n\(cq terminated
line. See
.BR PROTOCOL .
.
.PP
Since most of the
.B Hamlib
operations have a
.BR set " and a " get
method, a single pper case letter will be used for
.B set
methods whereas the corresponding single lower case letter refers to the
.B get
method.  Each operation also has a long name; prepend a backslash, \(oq\\\(cq,
to send a long command name all in lower case.
.
.PP
Example (Perl): \(lqprint $socket "\\\\dump_caps\\n";\(rq to see what the
radio's backend can do
.RB ( Note :
In Perl and many other languages a \(oq\\\(cq will need to be escaped with a
preceding \(oq\\\(cq so that even though two backslash characters appear in
the code, only one will be passed to
.BR rigctld .
This is a possible bug, beware!).
.
.PP
.BR Note :
The backend for the radio to be controlled, or the radio itself may not
support some commands. In that case, the operation will fail with a
.B Hamlib
error message.
.
.PP
Here is a summary of the supported commands (In the case of
.B set
commands the quoted italicized string is replaced by the value in the
description.  In the case of
.B get
commands the quoted italicized string is the key name of the value returned.):
.

Get
.RI \(aq Frequency \(aq,
in Hz.
.IP
Returns an integer value and the VFO hamlib thinks is active.
Note that some rigs (e.g. all Icoms) cannot track current VFO so hamlib can
get out of sync with the rig if the user presses rig buttons like the VFO.
rigctld clients should ensure they set the intended VFO or use vfo mode.

.
.SH PROTOCOL
.
There are two protocols in use by
.BR rigctld ,
the
.B Default Protocol
and the
.BR "Extended Response Protocol" .
.
.PP
The
.B Default Protocol
is intended primarily for the communication between
.B Hamlib
library functions and
.B rigctld
(\(lqNET rigctl\(rq, available using radio model \(oq2\(cq).
.
.PP
The
.B Extended Response Protocol
is intended to be used with scripts or other programs interacting directly
with
.B rigctld
as consistent feedback is provided.
.
.
.SS Default Protocol
.
The
.B Default Protocol
is intentionally simple.  Commands are entered on a single line with any
needed values.  In practice, reliable results are obtained by terminating each
command string with a newline character, \(oq\\n\(cq.
.
.PP
Example set frequency and mode commands (Perl code (typed text shown in bold)):
.
.PP
.in +4n
.EX
\fBprint $socket "F 14250000\\n";\fP
\fBprint $socket "\\\\set_mode LSB 2400\\n";\fP   # escape leading '\\'
.EE
.in
.
.PP
A one line response will be sent as a reply to
.B set
commands, \(lqRPRT \fIx\fP\\n\(rq where
.I x
is the Hamlib error code with \(oq0\(cq indicating success of the command.
.
.PP
Responses from
.B rigctld
.B get
commands are text values and match the same tokens used in the
.B set
commands. Each value is returned on its own line.  On error the string \(lqRPRT
\fIx\fP\\n\(rq is returned where
.I x
is the Hamlib error code.
.
.PP
Example get frequency (Perl code):
.
.PP
.in +4n
.EX
\fBprint $socket "f\\n";\fP
"14250000\\n"
.EE
.in
.
.PP
Most
.B get
functions return one to three values. A notable exception is the
.B dump_caps
command which returns many lines of
\fBkey\fR:\fIvalue\fR
pairs.
.
.PP
This protocol is primarily used by the \(lqNET rigctl\(rq (rigctl model 2)
backend which allows applications already written for Hamlib's C API to take
advantage of
.B rigctld
without the need of rewriting application code.  An application's user can
select rotator model 2 (\(lqNET rigctl\(rq) and then set
.B rig_pathname
to \(lqlocalhost:4532\(rq or other network
.IR host : port
(set by the
.BR \-T / \-t
options, respectively, above).
.
.
.SS Extended Response Protocol
.
The Extended Response protocol adds several rules to the strings returned by
.B rigctld
and adds a rule for the command syntax.
.
.PP
1. The command received by
.B rigctld
is echoed with its long command name followed by the value(s) (if any)
received from the client terminated by the specified response separator as the
first record of the response.
.
.PP
2. The last record of each block is the string \(lqRPRT \fIx\fP\\n\(rq where
.I x
is the numeric return value of the Hamlib backend function that was called by
the command.
.
.PP
3. Any records consisting of data values returned by the radio backend are
prepended by a string immediately followed by a colon then a space and then
the value terminated by the response separator. e.g. \(lqFrequency:
14250000\\n\(rq when the command was prepended by \(oq+\(cq.
.
.PP
4. All commands received will be acknowledged by
.B rigctld
 with records from rules 1 and 2.  Records from rule 3 are only returned when
data values must be returned to the client.
.
.PP
An example response to a
.B set_mode
command sent from the shell prompt (note the prepended \(oq+\(cq):
.
.PP
.in +4n
.EX
$ \fBecho "+M USB 2400" | nc -w 1 localhost 4532\fP
set_mode: USB 2400
RPRT 0
.EE
.in
.
.PP
In this case the long command name and values are returned on the first line
and the second line contains the end of block marker and the numeric radio
backend return value indicating success.
.
.PP
An example response to a
.B get_mode
query:
.
.PP
.in +4n
.EX
$ \fBecho "+\\get_mode" | nc -w 1 localhost 4532\fP
get_mode:
Mode: USB
Passband: 2400
RPRT 0
.EE
.in
.
.IP
.BR Note :
The \(oq\\\(cq is still required for the long command name even with the ERP
character.
.
.PP
In this case, as no value is passed to
.BR rigctld ,
the first line consists only of the long command name.  The final line shows
that the command was processed successfully by the radio backend.
.
.PP
Invoking the Extended Response Protocol requires prepending a command with a
punctuation character.  As shown in the examples above, prepending a \(oq+\(cq
character to the command results in the responses being separated by a newline
character (\(oq\\n\(cq).  Any other punctuation character recognized by the C
.BR ispunct ()
function except \(oq\\\(cq, \(oq?\(cq, or \(oq_\(cq will cause that character
to become the response separator and the entire response will be on one line.
.
.PP
Separator character summary:
.TP
.RB \(oq + \(cq
Each record of the response is appended with a newline (\(oq\\n\(cq).
.
.TP
.RB \(oq ; "\(cq, \(oq" | "\(cq, or, \(oq" , \(cq
Each record of the response is appended by the given character resulting in
entire response on one line.
.IP
These are common record separators for text representations of spreadsheet
data, etc.
.
.TP
.RB \(oq ? \(cq
Reserved for help in
.BR rigctl .
.
.TP
.RB \(oq _ \(cq

.
.TP
.RB \(oq # \(cq

.IP
.BR Note :
Other punctuation characters have not been tested!  Use at your own risk.
.
.PP
For example, invoking a
.B get_mode
query with a leading \(oq;\(cq returns:
.
.PP
.in +4n
.EX
get_mode:;Mode: USB;Passband: 2400;RPRT 0
.EE
.in
.
.PP
Or, using the pipe character \(oq|\(cq returns:
.
.PP
.in +4n
.EX
get_mode:|Mode: USB|Passband: 2400|RPRT 0
.EE
.in
.
.PP
And a
.B set_mode
command prepended with a \(oq|\(cq returns:
.
.PP
.in +4n
.EX
set_mode: USB 2400|RPRT 0
.EE
.in
.
.PP
Such a format will allow reading a response as a single event using a preferred
response separator.  Other punctuation characters have not been tested!
