OBD-II-Emulator

example workflow

This is an OBD-II emulator via CAN over Linux that handles diagnostics queries of OBD2 scanners. The emulator listens to the CAN packets coming from the USB-CAN Analyzer device over a serial communication and by using the device CAN driver, converts the packets to CAN frames. Then the OBD emulator extracts the parameter ID (PID) from the frames and routes them to the corresponding OBD service as shown below:

Dependecies

The current library has two categories of dependency as follows:

Hardware dependencies

⚠️ If after loading the driver, the analyzer is got disconnected because of brltty (which can be seen via launching sudo dmesg | grep tty in the termnial), then follow this solution.

Software dependencies

  • Cpp Standard: 14
  • Cmake mimimum version: 3.14
  • Compiler:
    • GCC C/C++ Compiler (x86-64 Linux GNU): 11.2.0; or
    • Clang C/C++ Compiler (x86-64 PC Linux GNU): 14.0.0
  • Google Test: v1.12.1
  • Linux kernel minimum version: 2.6.25

Documentation

The library documentation is available from GitHub Pages which is powered by Doxygen .

Samples

The library samples build is disabled by default. To be able to build the library with the samples, following bash command can be used:

cmake -S . -B build -Dbuild_samples=ON
cmake --build build
# To run the tests:
cd build && ctest
