# ESP-IDF Gatt Server Example

This example shows how create a GATT service by adding attributes one by one. However, this method is defined by Bluedroid and is difficult for users to use.

Hence, we also allow users to create a GATT service with an attribute table, which releases the user from adding attributes one by one. And it is recommended for users to use. For more information about this method, please refer to [gatt_server_service_table_demo](../gatt_server_service_table).

This demo creates GATT a service and then starts advertising, waiting to be connected to a GATT client.

To test this demo, we can run the [gatt_client_demo](../gatt_client), which can scan for and connect to this demo automatically. They will start exchanging data once the GATT client has enabled the notification function of the GATT server.

Please, check this [tutorial](tutorial/Gatt_Server_Example_Walkthrough.md) for more information about this example.

## How to Use Example

Before project configuration and build, be sure to set the correct chip target using:

```bash
idf.py set-target <chip_name>
```

### Hardware Required

* A development board with ESP32/ESP32-C3/ESP32-C2/ESP32-H2/ESP-S3 SoC (e.g., ESP32-DevKitC, ESP-WROVER-KIT, etc.)
* A USB cable for Power supply and programming

See [Development Boards](https://www.espressif.com/en/products/devkits) for more information about it.

### Build and Flash

Run `idf.py -p PORT flash monitor` to build, flash and monitor the project.

(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)

See the [Getting Started Guide](https://idf.espressif.com/) for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

### Settings for UUID128

This example works with UUID16 as default. To change to UUID128, follow this steps:

1. Change the UUID16 to UUID128. You can change the UUID according to your needs.

```c
// Create a new UUID128 (using random values for this example)
uint8_t gatts_service_uuid128_test_X[ESP_UUID_LEN_128] = {0x06, 0x18, 0x7a, 0xec, 0xbe, 0x11, 0x11, 0xea, 0x00, 0x16, 0x02, 0x42, 0x01, 0x13, 0x00, 0x04};
```

By adding this new UUID128, you can remove the `#define` macros with the old UUID16.

2. Add the new UUID128 to the profile.

```c
// Change the size of the UUID from 16 to 128
gl_profile_tab[PROFILE_X_APP_ID].service_id.id.uuid.len = ESP_UUID_LEN_128;
// Copy the new UUID128 to the profile
memcpy(gl_profile_tab[PROFILE_X_APP_ID].service_id.id.uuid.uuid.uuid128, gatts_service_uuid128_test_X, ESP_UUID_LEN_128);
```

3. Remove the following line(s)
```c
gl_profile_tab[PROFILE_X_APP_ID].service_id.id.uuid.uuid.uuid16 = GATTS_SERVICE_UUID_TEST_X;
```
