ARDUINO FINITE STATE MACHINE LIBRARY

September 5th, 2015

Introducing arduino-fsm ([Link] a library that

DESIGN

This library is composed of two classes: Fsm and State :

State Represents a state in the state machine. A state has two callback functions
associated with it: on_enter and on_exit , which are called when the state
is entered into and exited from, respectively.

Fsm Represents the state machine. Transitions are added using the
add_transition function. This function takes pointers to two states, an
event id, and a callback to a function that's called when the transition takes
place. Calling trigger with the event id invokes the transition, but only if
([Link]
the Fsm is in the start state, otherwise nothing happens.

First create the Fsm and State instances at the top of your source file.

}

In this case, two transitions are added:

1. From the lighton state to the lightoff state when the event
FLIP_LIGHT_SWITCH is triggered;
2. From the lightoff state to the lighton state when the event
FLIP_LIGHT_SWITCH is triggered.

Define your callback functions. If a callback isn't required, just pass NULL to the
function instead.
