bluetooth_proxy: Debug output of message data for BluetoothGATTWriteRequest is corrupted

tbe commented 1 year ago

The problem

While debugging some connection issues with a Home Assistant Bluetooth integration, i found some strange behavior.

The message send by write_gatt_char from the HA site is: '\x0c\x97\xfa\x87\xdc\xe8\xe9\xb3\x81\xe6\xba%\xa7^\x1d\x1f\x11'

But the debug log from the ESP device contains:

[03:00:34][VV][api.service:742]: on_bluetooth_gatt_write_request: BluetoothGATTWriteRequest {
  address: XXXXXX
  handle: 27
  response: NO
  data: '
         \x97\xfa\x87\xdc\xe8鳁\xe6\xba%\xa7^'
}

This message seems to lack some data after '\xa7^'.

I'm seeing similar behaviour as well

Your terminal is trying to render the raw output as utf-8 when its not. Try setting your terminal to ascii to see the contents of the message. Than verify if the data is missing or not

I'm using the "Logs" from the ESPHome view in HA. I don't see how to change it to ASCII

You'll need to use a terminal application with the cli
