I would like to introduce a library called CoDeSys_EIP that I started working on roughly last Tuesday on my "spare" time. This library allows you to communicate with Rockwell PLCs using tag based communication. I decided to develop this library after trying to look for such feature in CoDeSys but without any luck and noticed that many folks asked for the same thing in a few different posts: https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Runtime/thread/0e68f80e70/?limit=25#61cf
Huge thanks to vitovt1877 for providing the literature.
Library is still new and there will be quick changes, so please be patient. If you guys have a feature request, feel free to open up an issue and I will try to implement it.

@aliazz, To be honest, I am not a huge of this codesys SVN route; GitHub is easier to use for me. I guess if someone could point me to a tutorial on how to host here, then I might redirect the repo here instead.

CForge hosts both GIT and SVN ;-)
You can even import/mirror your current hosted GIT in it with minimal effort!
You can try all stuff out in your personal home if you want to experiment without cluttering CForge.
To host a GIT repository on CForge is quite simple, a few mouse clicks is all it takes to create a GIT. It works the almost exactly same as on Github once it has been set up.
In general there only a few steps which you take in order to set something up, it is really very simple;
Determine where you want your project to be hosted on the CForge site, as a library, a project or in your personal home (your user name)
Create a new Library or Project or whatever under the appropriate category, this will take a few moments.
Once created you can add a new object like a GIT Repo or Wiki (or item) via "add new" in the top menu on the left.
Create the GIT, give it an appropriate name and now you are set!
You can mirror/import your GITHUB git into it with few clicks.
You can always ask admin @i-campbell to help you in setting up your first project, I am very sure he will help you ;-)

@aliazz @i-campbell, any chance you guys could make a video and post it on your youtube channel on how to host library/project here? It would incentivize myself and others to host it here instead. It's certainly not as straight forward as mentioned, but the issue is probably a user error.

Please give it a try and let me know how it goes for you: https://github.com/NothinRandom/CoDeSys_EIP

Wow, what a fantastic library! Thanks for sharing @nothinrandom!

Why don't you host it here on CForge?

Hi!
Create a project on Cforge:
Use pauze to step it through! :-)
CForge Usage and installation
SVN Checkout on CForge
And the entire playlist of 3 videos

With kind regards!

No worries, I have these kind of things very often too ;-)
