:mod:`ubluetooth` --- low-level Bluetooth
=========================================
.. module:: ubluetooth
:synopsis: Low-level Bluetooth radio functionality
This module provides an interface to a Bluetooth controller on a board.
Currently this supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) in Central, Peripheral,
Broadcaster, and Observer roles, as well as GATT Server and Client. A device
may operate in multiple roles concurrently.
This API is intended to match the low-level Bluetooth protocol and provide
building-blocks for higher-level abstractions such as specific device types.
.. note:: This module is still under development and its classes, functions,
methods and constants are subject to change.
class BLE
---------
Constructor
-----------
.. class:: BLE()
Returns the singleton BLE object.
Configuration
-------------
.. method:: BLE.active([active], /)
Optionally changes the active state of the BLE radio, and returns the
current state.
The radio must be made active before using any other methods on this class.
.. method:: BLE.config('param', /)
BLE.config(*, param=value, ...)
Get or set configuration values of the BLE interface. To get a value the
parameter name should be quoted as a string, and just one parameter is
queried at a time. To set values use the keyword syntax, and one ore more
parameter can be set at a time.
Currently supported values are:
- ``'mac'``: The current address in use, depending on the current address mode.
This returns a tuple of ``(addr_type, addr)``.
See :meth:`gatts_write <BLE.gap_scan>` for details about address type.
This may only be queried while the interface is currently active.
- ``'addr_mode'``: Sets the address mode. Values can be:
* 0x00 - PUBLIC - Use the controller's public address.
* 0x01 - RANDOM - Use a generated static address.
* 0x02 - RPA - Use resolvable private addresses.
* 0x03 - NRPA - Use non-resolvable private addresses.
By default the interface mode will use a PUBLIC address if available, otherwise
it will use a RANDOM address.
- ``'gap_name'``: Get/set the GAP device name used by service 0x1800,
characteristic 0x2a00. This can be set at any time and changed multiple
times.
- ``'rxbuf'``: Get/set the size in bytes of the internal buffer used to store
incoming events. This buffer is global to the entire BLE driver and so
handles incoming data for all events, including all characteristics.
Increasing this allows better handling of bursty incoming data (for
example scan results) and the ability to receive larger characteristic values.
- ``'mtu'``: Get/set the MTU that will be used during an MTU exchange. The
resulting MTU will be the minimum of this and the remote device's MTU.
MTU exchange will not happen automatically (unless the remote device initiates
it), and must be manually initiated with
:meth:`gattc_exchange_mtu<BLE.gattc_exchange_mtu>`.
Use the ``_IRQ_MTU_EXCHANGED`` event to discover the MTU for a given connection.
Event Handling
--------------
.. method:: BLE.irq(handler, /)
Registers a callback for events from the BLE stack. The *handler* takes two
arguments, ``event`` (which will be one of the codes below) and ``data``
(which is an event-specific tuple of values).
**Note:** the ``addr``, ``adv_data``, ``char_data``, ``notify_data``, and
``uuid`` entries in the tuples are references to data managed by the
:mod:`ubluetooth` module (i.e. the same instance will be re-used across
multiple calls to the event handler). If your program wants to use this
data outside of the handler, then it must copy them first, e.g. by using
``bytes(addr)`` or ``bluetooth.UUID(uuid)``.
An event handler showing all possible events::
def bt_irq(event, data):
if event == _IRQ_CENTRAL_CONNECT:
# A central has connected to this peripheral.
conn_handle, addr_type, addr = data
elif event == _IRQ_CENTRAL_DISCONNECT:

# Return None to deny the read.
# Note: This event is not supported on ESP32.

# Note: The value_handle will be zero on btstack (but present on NimBLE).
# Note: Status will be zero on success, implementation-specific value otherwise.
conn_handle, value_handle, status = data
elif event == _IRQ_GATTC_WRITE_DONE:
# A gattc_write() has completed.
# Note: The value_handle will be zero on btstack (but present on NimBLE).
# Note: Status will be zero on success, implementation-specific value otherwise.
conn_handle, value_handle, status = data
elif event == _IRQ_GATTC_NOTIFY:
# A server has sent a notify request.
conn_handle, value_handle, notify_data = data
elif event == _IRQ_GATTC_INDICATE:
# A server has sent an indicate request.
conn_handle, value_handle, notify_data = data
elif event == _IRQ_GATTS_INDICATE_DONE:
# A client has acknowledged the indication.
# Note: Status will be zero on successful acknowledgment, implementation-specific value otherwise.
conn_handle, value_handle, status = data
elif event == _IRQ_MTU_EXCHANGED:
# MTU exchange complete (either initiated by us or the remote device).
conn_handle, mtu = data

In order to save space in the firmware, these constants are not included on the

program.
Broadcaster Role (Advertiser)
-----------------------------
.. method:: BLE.gap_advertise(interval_us, adv_data=None, *, resp_data=None, connectable=True)
Starts advertising at the specified interval (in **micro**\ seconds). This
interval will be rounded down to the nearest 625us. To stop advertising, set
*interval_us* to ``None``.
*adv_data* and *resp_data* can be any type that implements the buffer
protocol (e.g. ``bytes``, ``bytearray``, ``str``). *adv_data* is included
in all broadcasts, and *resp_data* is send in reply to an active scan.
**Note:** if *adv_data* (or *resp_data*) is ``None``, then the data passed
to the previous call to ``gap_advertise`` will be re-used. This allows a
broadcaster to resume advertising with just ``gap_advertise(interval_us)``.
To clear the advertising payload pass an empty ``bytes``, i.e. ``b''``.
Observer Role (Scanner)
-----------------------
.. method:: BLE.gap_scan(duration_ms, interval_us=1280000, window_us=11250, active=False, /)
Run a scan operation lasting for the specified duration (in **milli**\ seconds).
To scan indefinitely, set *duration_ms* to ``0``.
To stop scanning, set *duration_ms* to ``None``.
Use *interval_us* and *window_us* to optionally configure the duty cycle.
The scanner will run for *window_us* **micro**\ seconds every *interval_us*
**micro**\ seconds for a total of *duration_ms* **milli**\ seconds. The default
interval and window are 1.28 seconds and 11.25 milliseconds respectively
(background scanning).
For each scan result the ``_IRQ_SCAN_RESULT`` event will be raised, with event
data ``(addr_type, addr, adv_type, rssi, adv_data)``.
``addr_type`` values indicate public or random addresses:
* 0x00 - PUBLIC
* 0x01 - RANDOM (either static, RPA, or NRPA, the type is encoded in the address itself)
``adv_type`` values correspond to the Bluetooth Specification:
* 0x00 - ADV_IND - connectable and scannable undirected advertising
* 0x01 - ADV_DIRECT_IND - connectable directed advertising
* 0x02 - ADV_SCAN_IND - scannable undirected advertising
* 0x03 - ADV_NONCONN_IND - non-connectable undirected advertising
* 0x04 - SCAN_RSP - scan response
``active`` can be set ``True`` if you want to receive scan responses in the results.
When scanning is stopped (either due to the duration finishing or when
explicitly stopped), the ``_IRQ_SCAN_DONE`` event will be raised.
Central Role
------------
A central device can connect to peripherals that it has discovered using the observer role (see :meth:`gap_scan<BLE.gap_scan>`) or with a known address.
.. method:: BLE.gap_connect(addr_type, addr, scan_duration_ms=2000, /)
Connect to a peripheral.
See :meth:`gap_scan <BLE.gap_scan>` for details about address types.
On success, the ``_IRQ_PERIPHERAL_CONNECT`` event will be raised.
Peripheral Role
---------------
A peripheral device is expected to send connectable advertisements (see
:meth:`gap_advertise<BLE.gap_advertise>`). It will usually be acting as a GATT
server, having first registered services and characteristics using
:meth:`gatts_register_services<BLE.gatts_register_services>`.
When a central connects, the ``_IRQ_CENTRAL_CONNECT`` event will be raised.
Central & Peripheral Roles
--------------------------
.. method:: BLE.gap_disconnect(conn_handle, /)
Disconnect the specified connection handle. This can either be a
central that has connected to this device (if acting as a peripheral)
or a peripheral that was previously connected to by this device (if acting
as a central).
On success, the ``_IRQ_PERIPHERAL_DISCONNECT`` or ``_IRQ_CENTRAL_DISCONNECT``
event will be raised.
Returns ``False`` if the connection handle wasn't connected, and ``True``
otherwise.
GATT Server
-----------
A GATT server has a set of registered services. Each service may contain
characteristics, which each have a value. Characteristics can also contain
descriptors, which themselves have values.
These values are stored locally, and are accessed by their "value handle" which
is generated during service registration. They can also be read from or written
to by a remote client device. Additionally, a server can "notify" a
characteristic to a connected client via a connection handle.
A device in either central or peripheral roles may function as a GATT server,
however in most cases it will be more common for a peripheral device to act
as the server.
Characteristics and descriptors have a default maximum size of 20 bytes.
Anything written to them by a client will be truncated to this length. However,
any local write will increase the maximum size, so if you want to allow larger
writes from a client to a given characteristic, use
:meth:`gatts_write<BLE.gatts_write>` after registration. e.g.
``gatts_write(char_handle, bytes(100))``.
.. method:: BLE.gatts_register_services(services_definition, /)
Configures the server with the specified services, replacing any
existing services.
*services_definition* is a list of **services**, where each **service** is a
two-element tuple containing a UUID and a list of **characteristics**.
Each **characteristic** is a two-or-three-element tuple containing a UUID, a
**flags** value, and optionally a list of *descriptors*.
Each **descriptor** is a two-element tuple containing a UUID and a **flags**
value.
The **flags** are a bitwise-OR combination of the
:data:`ubluetooth.FLAG_READ`, :data:`ubluetooth.FLAG_WRITE` and
:data:`ubluetooth.FLAG_NOTIFY` values defined below.
The return value is a list (one element per service) of tuples (each element
is a value handle). Characteristics and descriptor handles are flattened
into the same tuple, in the order that they are defined.
The following example registers two services (Heart Rate, and Nordic UART)::
HR_UUID = bluetooth.UUID(0x180D)
HR_CHAR = (bluetooth.UUID(0x2A37), bluetooth.FLAG_READ | bluetooth.FLAG_NOTIFY,)
HR_SERVICE = (HR_UUID, (HR_CHAR,),)
UART_UUID = bluetooth.UUID('6E400001-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E')
UART_TX = (bluetooth.UUID('6E400003-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E'), bluetooth.FLAG_READ | bluetooth.FLAG_NOTIFY,)
UART_RX = (bluetooth.UUID('6E400002-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E'), bluetooth.FLAG_WRITE,)
UART_SERVICE = (UART_UUID, (UART_TX, UART_RX,),)
SERVICES = (HR_SERVICE, UART_SERVICE,)
( (hr,), (tx, rx,), ) = bt.gatts_register_services(SERVICES)
The three value handles (``hr``, ``tx``, ``rx``) can be used with
:meth:`gatts_read <BLE.gatts_read>`, :meth:`gatts_write <BLE.gatts_write>`, :meth:`gatts_notify <BLE.gatts_notify>`, and
:meth:`gatts_indicate <BLE.gatts_indicate>`.
**Note:** Advertising must be stopped before registering services.
.. method:: BLE.gatts_read(value_handle, /)
Reads the local value for this handle (which has either been written by
:meth:`gatts_write <BLE.gatts_write>` or by a remote client).
.. method:: BLE.gatts_write(value_handle, data, /)
Writes the local value for this handle, which can be read by a client.
.. method:: BLE.gatts_notify(conn_handle, value_handle, data=None, /)
Sends a notification request to a connected client.
If *data* is not ``None``, then that value is sent to the client as part of
the notification. The local value will not be modified.
Otherwise, if *data* is ``None``, then the current local value (as
set with :meth:`gatts_write <BLE.gatts_write>`) will be sent.
.. method:: BLE.gatts_indicate(conn_handle, value_handle, /)
Sends an indication request to a connected client.
**Note:** This does not currently support sending a custom value, it will
always send the current local value (as set with :meth:`gatts_write
<BLE.gatts_write>`).
On acknowledgment (or failure, e.g. timeout), the
``_IRQ_GATTS_INDICATE_DONE`` event will be raised.
.. method:: BLE.gatts_set_buffer(value_handle, len, append=False, /)
Sets the internal buffer size for a value in bytes. This will limit the
largest possible write that can be received. The default is 20.
Setting *append* to ``True`` will make all remote writes append to, rather
than replace, the current value. At most *len* bytes can be buffered in
this way. When you use :meth:`gatts_read <BLE.gatts_read>`, the value will
be cleared after reading. This feature is useful when implementing something
like the Nordic UART Service.
GATT Client
-----------
A GATT client can discover and read/write characteristics on a remote GATT server.
It is more common for a central role device to act as the GATT client, however
it's also possible for a peripheral to act as a client in order to discover
information about the central that has connected to it (e.g. to read the
device name from the device information service).
.. method:: BLE.gattc_discover_services(conn_handle, uuid=None, /)
Query a connected server for its services.
Optionally specify a service *uuid* to query for that service only.
For each service discovered, the ``_IRQ_GATTC_SERVICE_RESULT`` event will
be raised, followed by ``_IRQ_GATTC_SERVICE_DONE`` on completion.
.. method:: BLE.gattc_discover_characteristics(conn_handle, start_handle, end_handle, uuid=None, /)
Query a connected server for characteristics in the specified range.
Optionally specify a characteristic *uuid* to query for that
characteristic only.
You can use ``start_handle=1``, ``end_handle=0xffff`` to search for a
characteristic in any service.
For each characteristic discovered, the ``_IRQ_GATTC_CHARACTERISTIC_RESULT``
event will be raised, followed by ``_IRQ_GATTC_CHARACTERISTIC_DONE`` on completion.
.. method:: BLE.gattc_discover_descriptors(conn_handle, start_handle, end_handle, /)
Query a connected server for descriptors in the specified range.
For each descriptor discovered, the ``_IRQ_GATTC_DESCRIPTOR_RESULT`` event
will be raised, followed by ``_IRQ_GATTC_DESCRIPTOR_DONE`` on completion.
.. method:: BLE.gattc_read(conn_handle, value_handle, /)
Issue a remote read to a connected server for the specified
characteristic or descriptor handle.
When a value is available, the ``_IRQ_GATTC_READ_RESULT`` event will be
raised. Additionally, the ``_IRQ_GATTC_READ_DONE`` will be raised.
.. method:: BLE.gattc_write(conn_handle, value_handle, data, mode=0, /)
Issue a remote write to a connected server for the specified
characteristic or descriptor handle.
The argument *mode* specifies the write behaviour, with the currently
supported values being:
* ``mode=0`` (default) is a write-without-response: the write will
be sent to the remote server but no confirmation will be
returned, and no event will be raised.
* ``mode=1`` is a write-with-response: the remote server is
requested to send a response/acknowledgement that it received the
data.
If a response is received from the remote server the
``_IRQ_GATTC_WRITE_DONE`` event will be raised.
.. method:: BLE.gattc_exchange_mtu(conn_handle, /)
Initiate MTU exchange with a connected server, using the preferred MTU
set using ``BLE.config(mtu=value)``.
The ``_IRQ_MTU_EXCHANGED`` event will be raised when MTU exchange
completes.
**Note:** MTU exchange is typically initiated by the central. When using
the BlueKitchen stack in the central role, it does not support a remote
peripheral initiating the MTU exchange. NimBLE works for both roles.
class UUID
----------
Constructor
-----------
.. class:: UUID(value, /)
Creates a UUID instance with the specified **value**.
The **value** can be either:
- A 16-bit integer. e.g. ``0x2908``.
- A 128-bit UUID string. e.g. ``'6E400001-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E'``.
Constants
---------
.. data:: ubluetooth.FLAG_READ
ubluetooth.FLAG_WRITE
ubluetooth.FLAG_NOTIFY
