@siva7170/ble-connection NPM

BLE Connection

This is a node addon api package used for connecting other bluetooth through Bluethooth SPP. IMPORTANT! It supports for Windows platform. For now, we can only connect to other bluetooth spp. It means, this package does not act as server.

Getting Started

This library is developed in C++ and support for Node.js.

Installation

Install this package into your project by below command

npm install @siva7170/ble-connection

Usage

Below code is sample for how to use it. Please see methods and its functionalities below sections.

const bleConnection = require('@siva7170/ble-connection');

const bleConnInstance = new bleConnection.BLEConnection();

Methods

Initiate(successCallback,failureCallback)

successCallback:
- Type: Function
failureCallback:
- Type: Function

It initializes the necessary things.

bleConnInstance.Initiate(()=>{
	console.log("Initiated!");
	// rest of the code
},()=>{
	console.log("Failed to initiate!");
});

Connect(bluetooth_addr, uuid, successCallback,failureCallback)

bluetooth_addr:
- Type: String
uuid:
- Type: String
successCallback:
- Type: Function
failureCallback:
- Type: Function

This method will try to connect to the given bluetooth address and uuid from bluetooth spp server.

// please use valid bluetooth address and UUID
bleConnInstance.Connect("00:00:00:00:00:E0","aaaaaaaa-aaaa-4444-cccc-999888999888",()=>{
	console.log("Connected!");
    // rest of the code
},()=>{
	console.log("Failed to connect!");
});

SendData(data, successCallback, failureCallback) (optional)

data:
- Type: String
successCallback:
- Type: Function
failureCallback:
- Type: Function

With this method, you can send data to client

bleConnInstance.SendData('Hi server!',(res)=>{
	console.log("Data sent: "+sData);
}, (err)=>{

});

OnReceiveData(onDataRecvCallback)

onDataRecvCallback:
- Type: Function

This method will be triggered when the data sent from bluetooth server

bleConnInstance.OnReceiveData((data)=>{
	console.log("Data receivedd: "+data);
});

Full Example

Please find full example of implementation

const bleConnection = require('@siva7170/ble-connection');

const bleConnInstance = new bleConnection.BLEConnection();

try{
    bleConnInstance.Initiate(()=>{
        console.log("Initiated!");

        bleConnInstance.Connect("00:00:00:00:00:E0","aaaaaaaa-aaaa-4444-cccc-999888999888",()=>{
            console.log("Connected!");
            let sData="Hi client";
            bleConnInstance.SendData(sData,(res)=>{
                console.log("Data sent: "+sData);
            }, (err)=>{

            });

            bleConnInstance.OnReceiveData((data)=>{
                console.log("Data receivedd: "+data);
            });
            
            sData="How are you?";
            bleConnInstance.SendData(sData,(res)=>{
                console.log("Data sent: "+sData);
            }, (err)=>{

            });
        },()=>{
            console.log("Failed to connect!");
        });
    },()=>{
        console.log("Failed to initiate!");
    });
}catch(e){
    console.error(e.toString());
}
