@blowsie this feature request is non-trivial:
1) noble does not support Windows yet, see: https://github.com/sandeepmistry/noble/issues/84 2) As far as I can tell, there are no API's on Windows 8.1 for scanning for BLE devices programmatically. All scanning + pairing is done via a GUI.
@sandeepmistry no problem, I'll let you decide what you want to do with the request. FYI: there is a .NET lib that has similar functionality.
@blowsie thanks for sharing the link!
The new BluetoothLEAdvertisementWatcher
class in Windows 10 looks promising: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows.devices.bluetooth.advertisement.bluetoothleadvertisementwatcher.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
@blowsie I've published version 0.4.0 with Windows support.
noble and bleno now use a similar technique to win-beacon for Windows support, the WinUSB driver is needed.
See here for what you need: https://github.com/sandeepmistry/node-bleacon#prerequisites
