CI Status Carthage compatible Version License Platform

Examples

To run the example projects, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first. A Peripheral_Example project also added so if you have an iOS device and a Mac then you can test the Swift and ObjC iOS examples. They behave as a central and Peripheral_Example will be the peripheral on the Mac.

Also four examples was added: Mac[ObjC | Swift], iOS[ObjC | Swift]

Requirements

Bluetooth 4 capable iOS device and/or Mac. So all the current (and future) Apple products wit iOS 9 or MacOS 10.11.

Usage

To initialize a BLECManager instance you have to define the configuration data with expected or optional services and characteristics:

Swift:

        let config = BLECConfig(type: .OnePheriperal, services: [
            BLECServiceConfig(
                type: [.Advertised, .Required],
                UUID: "965F6F06-2198-4F4F-A333-4C5E0F238EB7",
                characteristics: [
                    BLECCharacteristicConfig(
                        type: .Required,
                        UUID: "89E63F02-9932-4DF1-91C7-A574C880EFBF",
                        delegate: dataChar)
                ]),
            BLECServiceConfig(type: .Optional,
                UUID: "180a",
                characteristics: [
                    // Manufacturer Name String characteristic.
                    BLECCharacteristicConfig(
                        type: .Required,
                        UUID: "2a29",
                        delegate: infoChars[0]),

                    // board
                    BLECCharacteristicConfig(
                        type: .Optional,
                        UUID: "2a26",
                        delegate: infoChars[1]),

                    // HwRev
                    BLECCharacteristicConfig(
                        type: .Optional,
                        UUID: "2a27",
                        delegate: infoChars[2]),

                    // SwRev
                    BLECCharacteristicConfig(
                        type: .Optional,
                        UUID: "2a28",
                        delegate: infoChars[3])
                ])
            ])

        let queue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_HIGH, 0)
        _manager = BLECManager(config: config, queue: queue)
        _manager.delegate = self;

A characteristic handler class must conform to the BLECDeviceDelegate protocol.

To access other characteristics from an implementation of characteristic handler the

Swift:

func characteristicAt(characteristicIndex: Int, inServiceAt serviceIndex: Int) -> CBCharacteristic?

ObjC:

- (nullable CBCharacteristic *)characteristicAt:(NSUInteger)charIndex
                                    inServiceAt:(NSUInteger)serviceIndex;

method of BLECDevice class can be used. Characteristic and service indices are the indexes of the config structure describes/defines the characteristic.
