# *** UPDATE ***
|
|
Server now handles long reads and writes, still work to do on client.
|
|
|
|
NEW Client callback created - ```bool onConnParamsUpdateRequest(NimBLEClient* pClient, const ble_gap_upd_params* params)```
|
|
Called when the server wants to change the connection parameters, return true to accept them or false if not.
|
|
Check NimBLE_Client.ino example for a demonstration.

# NimBLE-Arduino
|
|
A fork of the NimBLE stack restructured for compilation in the Ardruino IDE with a CPP library for use with ESP32.
|
|
|
|
Why? Because the Bluedroid library is too bulky.
|
|
|
|
Initial client code testing has resulted in code size reduction of ~115k and reduced ram consumption of ~37k.
|
|
|
|
Server code testing results from @beegee-toyo [from the project here](https://github.com/beegee-tokyo/ESP32WiFiBLE-NimBLE):

### Memory usage (compilation output)
|
|
#### Arduino BLE library
|
|
```log
|
|
RAM: [== ] 17.7% (used 58156 bytes from 327680 bytes)
|
|
Flash: [======== ] 76.0% (used 1345630 bytes from 1769472 bytes)
|
|
```
|
|
#### NimBLE-Arduino library
|
|
```log
|
|
RAM: [= ] 14.5% (used 47476 bytes from 327680 bytes)
|
|
Flash: [======= ] 69.5% (used 911378 bytes from 1310720 bytes)

```

### Memory usage after **`setup()`** function
|
|
#### Arduino BLE library
|
|
**`Internal Total heap 259104, internal Free Heap 91660`**
|
|
#### NimBLE-Arduino library

# Installation:
|
|
|
|
Download as .zip and extract to Arduino/libraries folder, or in Arduino IDE from Sketch menu -> Include library -> Add .Zip library.
|
|
|
|
`#include "NimBLEDevice.h"` at the beginning of your sketch.
|
|
|
|
Tested and working with esp32-arduino v1.0.2 and 1.0.4 in Arduino IDE v1.8.12 and platform IO.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Usage:
|
|
|
|
This library is intended to be compatible with the original ESP32 BLE functions and types with minor changes.
|
|
|
|
Check the Refactored_original_examples in the examples folder for highlights of the differences with the original library.
|
|
|
|
More advanced examples highlighting many available features are in examples/ NimBLE_Server, NimBLE_Client.
|
|
|
|
Beacon examples provided by @beegee-tokyo are in examples/ BLE_Beacon_Scanner, BLE_EddystoneTLM_Beacon, BLE_EddystoneURL_Beacon.
|
|
|
|
Change the settings in the `nimconfig.h` file to customize NimBLE to your project, such as increasing max connections, default is 3.

# Continuing development:
|
|
|
|
This Library is tracking the esp-nimble repo, nimble-1.2.0-idf master branch, currently [@0a1604a.](https://github.com/espressif/esp-nimble)
|
|
|
|
Also tracking the NimBLE related changes in esp-idf, master branch, currently [@48bd2d7.](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tree/master/components/bt/host/nimble)

# Todo:
|
|
|
|
1. Code cleanup.
|
|
2. Create documentation.
|
|
3. Expose more NimBLE features.
|
|
4. Add BLE Mesh code.
