Gadgetbridge notifications

[dapgo]

Would it be possible to port the bangle "GadgetBridge" apps to Watchapps?

Android Integration Messages

I haven't tried to install but I assume that required functions from bangle will be missing here.

Yes, I have had a quick look and tried loading both apps directly from the Bangle App loader. The apps run with no issues and I think the only thing you need to do is add a line to .boot0 to run the android boot file. .boot0 should really look for boot files but it does not currently so a quick hack would be:

if(STOR.read("android.boot.js")) eval(STOR.read("android.boot.js"));

I do not have and a working android phone to hand so I cannot test further -let me know how you get on.

Correction, you need to add the line:

if(STOR.read("android.boot.js")) eval(STOR.read("android.boot.js"));

at the end of main.js

Before I was trying without success with:

if(require("Storage").read("android.boot.js")) eval(require("Storage").read("android.boot.js"));

and NRF.setAdvertising({},{name:"espruino"});

(also with bangle term)

but GB is/was not discovering the device.

I added the line to main.js but I am still not able to discover the watch from GB. Even if i use the GB unsupported devices mode, that can find pcs or refrigerators xD

I can give you an android device compatible with GB, but maybe shipment cost is higher than the phone value

HI, I got hold of an oldish Android phone (5.0.1) and got in to run gadgetBridge. I did manage to connect to a P8 running the apps, however, I could not connect to a magic3, mostly because the GadgetBridge app crashed after it discovered three devices. Did not manage to get much further with the connect device - not sure how to debug.

Correction: I had a silly mistake and now the battery percentage display in GadgetBridge so communication is OK.

OK, if you update your main module from the repository (delete it and reload), notifications should now work. I will leave it open until you confirm that you gave got it to work with the real GB. I tested it with a message typed at the Web IDE console: GB({t:"notify", id:5, src:"gadget",title:"Test",body:"message"});

Yes, it works 💯

The only remark is that I had to add a step(upload lcp-p8.js) in the middle of removing and installing, because installation was failing Uncaught ReferenceError: "p" is not defined

at console it was more verbose Uncaught ReferenceError: "ST7789" is not defined at line 10 col 4 in main.js var g=ST7789(); ^

Uncaught Error: Cannot read property 'drawRect' of undefined at line 1 col 2 g.drawRect(10,g.getHeight()-16,g.getWidth()-10,g.getHeight()... ^ Uncaught ReferenceError: "p" is not defined at line 1 col 1287 ...muVluM6myKDvs7")),0,1253);;p(7);Bluetooth.println("OK")

I thought the new version of boot had fixed that. Anyway, I will close this issue!
