advertiseEddystoneUrl connectable as true may not work #248

Closed OwenBrotherwood closed 7 years ago

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

The examples that I have seen for advertiseEddystoneUrl have had connectable as false. (Edit: default is true)

Currently, no success with having it set to true and seeing a beacon

What does your config look like?

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

Hi James, I wish I could give a quick answer: the actual config is under the pxt-microbit layers so it is could be hard to find :( :: "I will try".

Before opening this issue, I wanted to produce something via https://developer.mbed.org/compiler/#nav:/; but have failed in finding a library that supports eddystone so far. Any advice on a successful usage of mbed would be great to create a simple case to check the connectable parameter would be great, otherwise "I will try again"

pelikhan commented 7 years ago

Working on dump module.json into the built/ folder in PXT to diagnose this kind of issues.

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

And I am still failing with my efforts on mbed. Found a team site, but so far nothing to import for a basic example of eddystone that just works https://developer.mbed.org/teams/microbit/code/

jamesadevine commented 7 years ago

Hey Owen,

I'm on mobile at the moment. Eddystone was only released on Tuesday, so it will take a couple of cycles to be picked up.

Have you tried yotta?

Best,

James.

I will try and get yotta to work: currently on Windows 10 but I have a virtual machine I can power up. I get back after a yotta experience using the on-line material for Windows and/or Linux https://lancaster-university.github.io/microbit-docs/offline-toolchains/

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

yotta Windows 10 "Hello world" went well. However https://github.com/lancaster-university/microbit-samples/tree/master/source/examples/bluetooth-eddystone-url failed. I copyed the example into the source folder and clean then build as per README.md'en

I will try some other examples while I am at it :)

Hey Owen,

I'll look in a bit!

Best,

Off the top of my head, have you copied config.json into the root of microbit-samples?

Best,

James.

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

I want to repeat the procedure, but having the config.json in the root and not the source dir (together with main.cpp) gave no errors ... but I cannot find the hex either :)

"I will try again" both with the eddystone url and one of the examples that has worked to make sure I have enough practise.

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

https://github.com/lancaster-university/microbit-samples README.md does state the config.json should be in the root: I hadn't gotten that far in reading. It probably triggers the inclusion of the correct libraries needed.

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

true or false? both work and the config used (from the example) is the same as the example. Thanks James: I think it is back to the pxt-microbit board again ( I can see that pelikhan has merged some debugging help into the pxt repro

Ø "open": 0,

Does it work with open: 1?

@pelikhan I will try with open:1

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

@pelikhan I found a yotta.json in the bluetooth build of pxt-microbit which is probably now the answer to Jame's original question about what the config looks like, so I put it here for completeness:

    "microbit-dal": {

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

0 and 1 both work (also with true ar false)

jamesadevine commented 7 years ago

@OwenBrotherwood @pelikhan For this to work, based on the PXT config provided above, whitelisting needs to be disabled. Otherwise, you will only be able to see the micro:bit's advertisements if you are bonded.

jamesadevine commented 7 years ago

@OwenBrotherwood Could you summarise your findings? Does true/false work for Eddystone in the microbit-samples repo?

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

Summary:

A big thanks for your help: it helped to quickly find where the problem lies. Peli has enabled some debugging in the pxt-microbit project that allows quicker findings of problems. I have now gotten a yotta installation local: which is good for ensuring where possible problems are to be found. I will be testing interval and power from yotta to check it is good and also how pxt-microbit gets "fixed" for beacons with tests that can hopefully help Peli.

Note: I am a community contributor to pxt/pxt-microbit: my projects are on http://microbit-drill.org/ with The Great Treasure Hunt being a request from someone in Denmark for beacons in Blocky/pxt as the driving force for getting beacons to work. https://github.com/microbit-drill/epxt encapsulates pxt-microbit to allow offline and pre-release use of features direct from MS github for pxt/pxt-microbit.

farooqhasny commented 7 years ago

thanks @OwenBrotherwood placing config.json worked for me which yotta but now i am getting the same error for plateformio src\main.cpp:16:21: error: 'class MicroBitBLEManager' has no member named 'advertiseEddystoneUrl' any ideas ??? much appreciated

thanks

@farooqhasny We don't maintain the platformio fork, but I would imagine it is out of date. 😞
