Roadmap
Lazuli is versatile NMEA message simulator designed to generate NMEA sentences for testing, development, and educational purposes. It transmits data over UDP, with plans to support serial (COM) port communication in the future. Lazuli stands out with its plugin-based architecture, enabling users to extend its functionality and add custom simulators or new NMEA message types effortlessly.
Lazuli incorporates a robust plugin system, empowering users to expand its capabilities by developing custom plugins. These plugins can introduce new NMEA sentence generators, simulate specific scenarios, or integrate third-party tools, ensuring the application remains flexible and adaptable to evolving needs.
The base plugin class provides the ability to describe the plugin and sends all messages on its own It is necessary to override one method to implement the generation of NMEA messages
The program creates a Plugins folder (Lazuli/Plugins) in the user's home directory Plugins (inheritors of the base class) must be placed in this directory
Users can configure simulation profiles to replicate real-world conditions, such as vessel movement, weather data, sensor readings, and more. This customization capability allows developers and testers to validate their systems under diverse and controlled environments.
Lazuli supports Qt Style Sheets (QSS) and StyleManager, enabling users to fully customize the application's visual appearance use custom settings.
The program creates a Styles folder (Lazuli/Styles) in the user's home directory You can place json settings for the style in this directory (they must match the Lazuli style format)
The program allows you to take coordinates from the map
When you click on the map, the latitude and longitude are passed to the virtual method of the base class
Developed using C++ and Qt 6.5.3's QtWidgets module, Lazuli ensures high performance and cross-platform compatibility.
