BLE Peripheral Example

(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)

This example creates GATT server and then starts advertising, waiting to be connected to a GATT client.

It uses ESP32's Bluetooth controller and NimBLE stack based BLE host.

This example aims at understanding GATT database configuration, handling GATT reads and writes, handling subscribe events, understanding advertisement and SMP related NimBLE APIs.

It also demonstrates security features of NimBLE stack. SMP parameters like I/O capabilities of device, Bonding flag, MITM protection flag and Secure Connection only mode, Enabling Link Encryption etc., can be configured through menuconfig options.

For RPA feature (currently Host based privacy feature is supported), use API ble_hs_pvcy_rpa_config to enable/disable host based privacy, own_addr_type needs to be set to BLE_ADDR_RANDOM to use this feature. Please include ble_hs_pvcy.h while using this API. As ble_hs_pvcy_rpa_config configures host privacy and sets address in controller, it is necessary to call this API after host-controller are synced (e.g. in bleprph_on_sync callback).

To test this demo, any BLE scanner app can be used.

Note :

  • To install the dependency packages needed, please refer to the top level README file.
  • Currently this Python utility is only supported on Linux (BLE communication is via BLuez + DBus).

How to Use Example

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

idf.py set-target <chip_name>

Configure the project

Open the project configuration menu:

idf.py menuconfig

In the Example Configuration menu:

  • Select I/O capabilities of device from Example Configuration --> I/O Capability, default is Just_works.
  • Enable/Disable other security related parameters Bonding, MITM option, secure connection(SM SC).

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 for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

Note

  • NVS support is not yet integrated to bonding. So, for now, bonding is not persistent across reboot.
