Get CAN Message

Get a CAN Message (Signal Dictionary)

Looking up a CAN Message (Signal Dictionary) from an arbitration ID or signal name is extremely easy with the help of CC-dbcAutoParse.

First, create a new dbcParse() instance.

myDbcParser = dbcParse()

Then, load it from either a new dbc file or saved dictionaries.

### EITHER ###
myDbcParser.parseNewDbc('my/DBC/path.dbc')

### OR ###
myDbcParser.loadDictionaries()

Finally, there are two methods that provide quick and easy message lookup.

You can either look up by arbitration ID:

newMessage = getMessageById(ID)

Or you can look up by one of the signal names on the message:

newMessage = getMessageBySignalName(signalName)

Both will return the full signal dictionary of the message.
