joshfarrant commented 7 years ago

I'm trying to connect to my Puck.js in a couple of ways but having no joy.

Running espruino -p c6:b9:c8:38:94:2b -v gives me the following output.

Unable to connect!

I get the same thing if I try to connect using a simple node app. Also I get the same if I use the output of espruino --list (/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port) instead of the MAC address.

I feel like I might be missing something, but this appears to be what the README suggests should work.

gfwilliams commented 7 years ago

If you're using --list you should get something like this:

Espruino Command-line Tool 0.0.25
-----------------------------------

PORTS:
  cf:71:de:4d:f8:48 (Puck.js F848)
  c0:52:3f:50:42:c9 (Puck.js 42C9)
  /dev/...

/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port is a red herring - it's completely unrelated to Bluetooth LE and just appears to be a serial port that all Macs have.

At that point you could connect to one of the displayed ports, but if it's not listing the address then it's not going to be connectable.

I get the same thing if I try to connect using a simple node app

Not sure I understand - you're saying you can't connect to it via BLE at all? I guess you've been able to connect previously as you have the Mac address - so any idea what changed?

Have you tried running the nRF Connect app on a phone and 'scanning' for advertised devices? It could be that Puck.js just isn't advertising, possibly because it's already connected?

For instance a Web Bluetooth page could already be open, or if you'd been trying the Puck.js HID example then your Mac might be automatically connecting to the device as soon as it appears - it's worth checking out the first few steps on the troubleshooting guide: http://www.espruino.com/Puck.js#troubleshooting

joshfarrant commented 7 years ago

Running --list just returns the following, nothing else.

Espruino Command-line Tool 0.0.25
-----------------------------------

PORTS:
  /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port

I'd expect to see

c6:b9:c8:38:94:2b (Puck.js 942B)

in there too, as you suggested, but I don't get anything like that at all.

I've been able to connect to it using the Bluefruit app on iOS, and using the web IDE on the same Mac, which is how I got the MAC address of the Puck.

It could be that Puck.js just isn't advertising, possibly because it's already connected?

For instance a Web Bluetooth page could already be open

That's a point - I was connected to the Puck through the Web IDE at the time I was scanning, so you might well be right that it was no longer advertising while it was connected.

I'll test this later by ensuring I'm not connected to any other device and running --list again and will report back.

Cheers for your advice!

gfwilliams commented 7 years ago

I was connected to the Puck through the Web IDE at the time I was scanning

By itself that would stop the connection.

Let me know how it goes, but I imagine that would solve it.

joshfarrant commented 7 years ago

After playing around with this a bit more I'm still not having any luck.

I've disconnected the Puck from the Web IDE (rebooted the Puck and my Mac for good measure), tried running --list and I still get the same output.

I can connect seamlessly with the Web IDE, as well as the Bluefruit iOS app. Also just set up the puck as a HID and that connects to the Mac instantly and works, but still absolutely nothing in the --list output.

If you've got any more suggestions I'd be happy to try them. This isn't crucial, so it's not the end of the world if it's not gonna work, but would be nice to play around with if it is possible.

gfwilliams commented 7 years ago

That's odd - maybe it's to do with your installation of Noble (the Node.js library used to communicate via BLE).

I just answered your post here: http://forum.espruino.com/conversations/304383/#comment13617606

Perhaps you could have a go with that? If you have trouble getting that working, it might explain the problems you're having here

joshfarrant commented 7 years ago

That's great, thanks. I'll have a look at the linked example and post back here if I figure out what's going on with the issues mentioned here.

gfwilliams commented 7 years ago

Any updates?

joshfarrant commented 7 years ago

I gave up on using the cli in the end, and switched to using the web ide. I may try again using my RPi, rather than my Macbook and if I have any updates I'll report back.

recidive commented 7 years ago

Hello, I'm trying out Espruino on my ESP32 board. Trying to upload code from the cli (from the IDE it works fine), but the --list doesn't list anything and I get the Unable to connect! when I try to upload code to it.

See attached screenshot for details.

gfwilliams commented 7 years ago

Can you try running it with the verbose command line option and see what it says? My guess is the node-serialport npm module hasn't got installed for some reason

Didn't see those errors yesterday. I've put a `console.log()` up in the callstack, and the ports are always empty.
gfwilliams commented 7 years ago

Specifically, your problem is:

Found /Users/henrique/Workspace/espruino-playground/node_modules/espruino/core/serial_nodeserial.js
No 'serialport' module found

So the modules it needs haven't been installed.

Try reinstalling espruino - maybe globally with npm install -g espruino, and then run it with just espruino.

not sure what I can do about it. The IDE in the browser works flawless. espruino runs under the latest node LTS version.

Anything else I can do to help? Also happt to open a new issue if it helps.

gfwilliams commented 6 years ago

Have you updated the firmware? The earliest batch of Pucks had a firmware that didn't advertise as often, which can cause problems finding them sometimes.

Also, could it be that the Mac is connecting to the Puck automatically? Specifically if you've ever programmed it with one of the USB HID examples the Mac will try and 'claim' it by connecting, which then stops it advertising so it can't be seen. Chrome might have a way to work around it.

To stop that, take a look at the heading about Mac OS in http://www.espruino.com/Puck.js#troubleshooting

martinjuhasz commented 6 years ago

i tried connecting to my esp8266 (a wemos d1 mini) using the cli on osx but it fails with the same error message.

i can use it as normal using the web ide and --list shows me the correct TTY USB Port.

It's saying you only have port /dev/cu.wchusbserial1420 but you're using tty not cu. Try using cu and it'll probably work - although you also have to specify a baud rate as ESP8266/32 use a different rate to every other Espruino board.

For general support issues like this please ask on the ESP8266 forum (http://forum.espruino.com/microcosms/925/) - the folks on there usually have a better idea about ESP8266.

sergigrau commented 6 years ago

Hi, in my case, I have solved the problem in my OSX with the following steps:

  1. downgrade of the node / npm version. I have installed the node version 8.x.x with the NVM manager (https://www.sitepoint.com/quick-tip-multiple-versions-node-nvm/)
  2. nvm use 8.0.0
  3. install npm i -g xpc-connection
  4. reinstall npm i -g espruino. Better if you uninstall previously espruino.
  5. Connect with the Chrome Espruino Web IDE application to puck.js and change the discovery time of BLE, NRF.setAdvertising ({,, {interval: 50})
  6. Close the connection with WEB IDE

@martinjuhasz I am running into the same problem as you did. Did you handle the issue ?

sergigrau commented 5 years ago

@martinjuhasz I am running into the same problem as you did. Did you handle the issue ? Yes! If you install node 8.0.0, works fine.

gfwilliams commented 5 years ago

Yes! If you install node 8.0.0, works fine.

I'm afraid this is the solution at the moment. The noble library (which is basically the way everyone uses Bluetooth LE on node) no longer works on node 10 and above!

There are suggested changes that fix it but for some reason they're no longer being merged in. It looks like it would be possible to swap to https://www.npmjs.com/package/@abandonware/noble though as this seems to have the fixes in, and I think I may end up having to do that soon

manuelnaturalcycles commented 5 years ago

im so stuck here!!! cant get it to work with @abandonware/noble installed in node 8.6.0 :((( i basically want to write code in my own IDE and use the command line to push it to the puck. I am at \mojave 10.4 and i have also tried installing noble-mac in node 10, 8, and 8.6.0, anything else I could try?

manuelnaturalcycles commented 5 years ago

@gfwilliams do you know if its possible to upload code to a puck from terminal with node 8.6.0 nd mojave 10.4?

gfwilliams commented 5 years ago

Just to check - it's Mac OS 10.14, not *10.4 I guess? I'm pretty sure 10.4 is too old.

Does the normal Espruino Web IDE work ok for you?

Please can you post as a new issue with the whole output of running npm install -g espruino and the output of running espruino --list --verbose?

manuelnaturalcycles commented 5 years ago

10.14 yes! sorry!

Mac OSX Mojave 10.4 -> I can see the pug in the OSX bluetooth preferences dialog box.

web ide works just fine!

gfwilliams commented 5 years ago

That's really weird - everything there seems to be working great.

If it possible that you've just left the Web IDE connected to the Puck so it's not connectable by any other device?

Can you try running node node_modules/noble/examples/advertisement-discovery.js - which is just some example code for Noble which tries to find any Bluetooth LE devices in range

manuelnaturalcycles commented 5 years ago

when i run that nothing happens, terminal just outputs nothing and stays there

manuelnaturalcycles commented 5 years ago 
var noble = require('noble-mac');

noble.on('stateChange', function(state) {
  if (state === 'poweredOn') {
    noble.startScanning();
  } else {
    noble.stopScanning();
  }
});

noble.on('discover', function(peripheral) {
  console.log('peripheral discovered:');
  console.log('\thello my local name is:');
  console.log('\t\t' + peripheral.advertisement.localName);
  console.log('\tand I am advertising the following services:');
  console.log('\t\t' + JSON.stringify(peripheral.advertisement.serviceUuids));
  console.log();
});

if i run that code with noble-mac instead of noble, i can see both my pucks discovered as peripherals. but if i do espruino --list, i cant see them

gfwilliams commented 5 years ago

Ok, that's promising then! So probably the issue is just that while you installed noble-mac, the tools aren't using it? Could you find out where the espruino package is installed, and then edit core/serial_noble.js?

Try changing:

  function startNoble() {
    try {
      noble = require('noble');
    } catch (e) {
      console.log("Noble: module couldn't be loaded, no node.js Bluetooth Low Energy\n", e);
      // super nasty workaround for https://github.com/sandeepmistry/noble/issues/502
      process.removeAllListeners('exit');
      errored = true;
      return false;
    }
...

to:

  function startNoble() {
    try {
      noble = require('noble-mac');
    } catch (e) {
      try {
        noble = require('noble');
      } catch (e) {
        console.log("Noble: module couldn't be loaded, no node.js Bluetooth Low Energy\n", e);
        // super nasty workaround for https://github.com/sandeepmistry/noble/issues/502
        process.removeAllListeners('exit');
        errored = true;
        return false;
      }
    }
...
manuelnaturalcycles commented 5 years ago

so i went into where nvm install global modules by doing nvm which current and there I modified the file like you showed by adding another level of try catching with noble-mac. first i made sure that peripheral discovery was still working with the code above to make sure every variable is the same.

i think step 5 and 6 of the stack trace are the problem. something in noble mac fails to initialize when doing it like this. surprisingly the other code we tried had require(noble-mac) and it had no problems :S confusing!

gfwilliams commented 5 years ago

Honestly I'm not sure what to suggest - I guess maybe flailing around it might be an idea to try noble-mac with a more modern version of node now we've given up with standard noble?

Also you could post on noble-mac's github and see if they have any thoughts?

ok cool, thanks gordon for your time and help ! i will fight on

i think step 5 and 6 of the stack trace are the problem. something in noble mac fails to initialize when doing it like this. surprisingly the other code we tried had require(noble-mac) and it had no problems :S confusing!

So, this issue is simple some missing checks in the noble.on('discover') in serial_noble. Just add checks for the following and it works:

if (
        dev.advertisement &&
        dev.advertisement.localName &&
        dev.advertisement.serviceUuids
      ) {

This is because you probably pick up nodes that don't have any services or a localName.

gfwilliams commented 5 years ago

Thanks! I've just pushed a change. I didn't add your exact code since that actually stops a load of devices being recognised (standard Espruino ones get recognised by name even if they don't advertise the services).

I think what's happening is that on Linux you get dev.advertisement.serviceUuids = [] even if there are no UUIDs, but maybe on Mac OS dev.advertisement.serviceUuids = undefined?
