ESDI

ESDI stands for "ESilva Desktop Interface" iirc, or "rAcElaBs aT hOmE"

This tool collects data from popular racing simulators (for now), to pass it to peripherals (or a peripheral, only made one so far). This is the currently available peripheral: CDashDisplay.

If anyone finds this project useful for anything at all it would be pretty cool. My main goal is to learn and have some fun.

Currently it can read from a .ibt file or live telemetry from iRacing. It can only be ran from the terminal: go run . offline -p <port> -i <ibt-file>

or to view the live data: go run . live -p <port>

Games implemented so far:

• iRacing using the goirsdk

Games being implemented:

• BeamNG.drive using the gobngsdk

Games to be implemented:

• Assetto Corsa

Roadmap

• Implement the interface for a data source
• Finish implementing BeamNG
• Configuration of the peripherals via ESDI
• Detection of the display
• Fuel Calculator
• LapTime Calculator
• A very long list useful stuff like flags, position, more info about other drivers, track conditions and so on so forth
• Dynamic data packets
• More roadmap entries
• Telemetry analysis tool
• Better user interface

Debugging

Freezes:

Using delve:

• Launch Terminal1 with dlv debug . --headless --listen=:2345 -- tui
• Launch Terminal2 and connect to with with dlv connect :2345
• Type continue onto Terminal2 and go to Terminal1 to use the application normally until it hangs.
• Go back to Terminal2 to and do a Ctrl+c to capture the state and then check what went wrong by looking at the goroutines for example.

pprof:

• go tool pprof http://localhost:8001/debug/pprof/mutex
  • type top to view the summary
  • type web to view a graph version

Shameless begging

Hey, doesn't hurt to try, its free either way: Buy me a coffee!
