BluetoothManagerBuilder Example + Questions

[goncalosoares]

Hello sputnikdev,

Really cool BT framework you got here. :-)

I was trying to use it and I Tried to create the Bluetooth Manager but somehow I cannot include the BluetoothManagerBuilder:
import org.sputnikdev.bluetooth.manager.impl.BluetoothManagerBuilder
bt_manager = new BluetoothManagerBuilder().withTinyBTransport(true).build()
The import fails. :-(

Also do you an example on how to to make a simple discover connect and read a characteristic?
I have gotten as far as trying like this...

bt_manager.start(true)
Set discoveredDevices = bt_manager.getDiscoveredDevices()
discoveredDevices.each { device ->
println(device.getName())
}

Am I on the right track?

Also When including the BlueGiga Lib I get a following error:

Could not find com.zsmartsystems.bluetooth.bluegiga:com.zsmartsystems.bluetooth.bluegiga:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.

Once again, awesome framework!!!
:-)

Hi @ElCuervoSoares, see examples here: https://github.com/sputnikdev/bluetooth-cli/tree/master/src/main/java/org/sputnikdev/bluetooth/examples

Could not find com.zsmartsystems.bluetooth.bluegiga:com.zsmartsystems.bluetooth.bluegiga:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.

How do you include BlueGiga transport/lib?

[vkolotov]

Your project pom should be like that (see dependencies section, you don't have to include zsmartsystems library, it is supplied with bluegiga transport lib): https://github.com/sputnikdev/eclipse-smarthome-bluetooth-binding-bluegiga-transport/blob/master/pom.xml See update below

Also make sure that you use RELEASE versions for the references (from Maven Central repo). The framework is under a heavy development, so might be unstable.

[vkolotov]

Please disregard my message above in regards bluegiga dependency, I have confused it with another project. Yes, you will need to install that library locally, like that:
sh .travis/install-dependencies.sh
in the root folder of the https://github.com/sputnikdev/bluetooth-manager-bluegiga project.

The bluegiga library is not yet released, so we have to do this still. Although it is quite stable.

Thank you for the answers... I will try it out :-)

It is still funny why I cannot import the BluetoothManagerBuilder... eventough the class is there

import org.sputnikdev.bluetooth.manager.impl.BluetoothManagerBuilder
bt_manager = new BluetoothManagerBuilder().withTinyBTransport(true).build()

[goncalosoares]

I am importing through gradle like this:
compile group: 'org.sputnikdev', name: 'bluetooth-manager', version: '1.3'

[goncalosoares]

I found out that if I use the 1.4-SNAPSHOT, it is there. :-)

I have now gotten the following failure:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Native libraries for TinyB transport could not be loaded.
at org.sputnikdev.bluetooth.manager.impl.BluetoothManagerBuilder.loadTinyBTransport(BluetoothManagerBuilder.java:210)

Is there any other libraries I need installed?
