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]
Bluetooth 4 capable iOS device and/or Mac. So all the current (and future) Apple products wit iOS 9 or MacOS 10.11.
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;ObjC:
BLECConfig *config = [BLECConfig

dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_HIGH, 0);
_manager = [[BLECManager alloc] initWithConfig:config queue:queue];
_manager.delegate = self;
_timer = nil;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.
