Bluetooth BLE Nordic UART Client/Terminal

Bluetooth BLE Nordic UART Client

BLE UART client using noble.

To use the package from npmjs.com:

npm i -s @danielgjackson/ble-uart

Example code for demo.mjs (substitute A1:B2:C3:D4:E5:F6 with your device's address):

import BleUart from '@danielgjackson/ble-uart'

async function demo(address) {
    console.log('Scanning...')
    const bleUart = await BleUart.scanForBleUart(address)

    bleUart.addLineReader((line) => {
        console.log(`Received: ${line}`)
    })

    console.log('Connecting...')
    await bleUart.connect()

    console.log('Connected!')
    bleUart.write('connected\n')
}

demo('A1:B2:C3:D4:E5:F6')

To run the example, you must first ensure your device is paired with the computer, and that you are specifying the correct address in your code, then:

sudo $(which node) demo.mjs

To run this without needing sudo access each time, you can give the current node binary permission to use Bluetooth at a low level (and this must be repeated if you change the node version, e.g. with nvm):

sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f $(which node))

...after which, you should be able to run using:

node demo.mjs

NOTE: For a full example, including details about programming a micro:bit client and pairing the device with your computer, see: sample-ble-uart.md
