I'm trying to transfer a file using the XMODEM protocol.

I saw and did not understand the solution provided in: Can I use the xmodem protocol with PySerial?

I saw xmodem package link.

  1. What is the value of size to be provided for the getc method? It is not assigned with any value given in the first link.
  2. When I use simple method as explained in the second link, I end up getting the error: No handlers could be found for logger "xmodem".

Here is my code to send the file.

import serial
from xmodem import XMODEM, CRC
from time import sleep
def getc(size, timeout=1):
    return port.read(size)
def putc(data, timeout=1):
    port.write(data)
    sleep(0.001) # give device time to send ACK
port = serial.Serial(port='COM10',parity=serial.PARITY_NONE,bytesize=serial.EIGHTBITS,stopbits=serial.STOPBITS_ONE,timeout=0,xonxoff=0,rtscts=0,dsrdtr=0,baudrate=9600)

sleep(2) # give device time to handle command
stream = open('..\\stream\\myfile.bin','rb')
modem = XMODEM(getc, putc)
modem.send(stream, quiet = 0)

I get the error: No handlers could be found for logger "xmodem".

    The _"error"_ `No handlers could be found for logger "xmodem"` is not really an error. It is just the `xmodem` package warning you that it is trying to output a log message but there is not logger `xmodem` configured. See: [logging package documentation](http://docs.python.org/library/logging.html). – Pedro Romano Oct 08 '12 at 17:53
  • @PedroRomano - Thanks a lot for your reply. You gave me solution for my 2nd question. Here is the solution for 1st question, **getc** and **putc** are used by XMODEM to read _size_ number of bytes from port and write _data_ to port respectively. They need to be defined by user and supplied to XMODEM object. XMODEM internally calls **getc** with _size_. Regards, Manju – manz Oct 09 '12 at 10:32
