Includes all the latest NimBLE stack changes from idf-v4.0 with few idf-v3.3 specific modifications. - Addition of nimble component as submodule (`nimble-1.1.0-idf-v3.3`), contains IDF v3.3 specific minor changes. - Example applications are identical to idf-v4.0 - Modification in `bt/Kconfig` to accommodate NimBLE as a BT host.

# BLE Heart Rate Measurement example
|
|
|
|
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
|
|
|
|
This example creates GATT server demonstrating standard Heart Rate measurement service. It simulates Hear rate measurement and notifies to client when the notifications are enabled.
|
|
|
|
It uses ESP32's Bluetooth controller and NimBLE stack based BLE host
|
|
|
|
This example aims at understanding notification subscriptions and sending notifications.
|
|
|
|
To test this demo, any BLE scanner app can be used.
|
|
|
|
A Python based utility `blehr_test.py` is also provided (which will run as a BLE GATT Client) and can be used to test this example.
|
|
|
|
Note :
|
|
|
|
* Make sure to run `python -m pip install --user -r $IDF_PATH/requirements.txt -r $IDF_PATH/tools/ble/requirements.txt` to install the dependency packages needed.
|
|
* Currently this Python utility is only supported on Linux (BLE communication is via BLuez + DBus).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How to use example
|
|
|
|
### Configure the project
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
idf.py menuconfig
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Set serial port under Serial Flasher Options.
|
|
|
|
### Build and Flash
|
|
|
|
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
|
|
|
|
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
|
|
|
|
## Example Output
|
|
|
|
This console output can be observed when blehr is connected to client and client enables notifications:
|
|
|
|
```
|
