Security pin

[faizannazir]

what is security pin and how can we set our own i tried ota_pin as pin and tried setpin function to set both didnot worked for me

[vovagorodok]

Here is small doc about security: https://github.com/vovagorodok/ArduinoBleOTA/blob/main/doc/SECURITY.md

From doc You can see that there are two options to provide a security by disabling/enabling uploads (using button/switch for example) or set a pin code. See:

Examples of secutity: Disable upload: https://github.com/vovagorodok/ArduinoBleOTA/blob/main/examples/security_disable_upload/security_disable_upload.ino Pin code: https://github.com/vovagorodok/ArduinoBleOTA/blob/main/examples/security_pin_code/security_pin_code.ino

when i try to connect ble device from app it asked for pin

[vovagorodok]

because You set pin code before

[faizannazir]

because You set pin code before

by security.setpin(12345) ???

without this code also it ask for pin and pin 12345 also not work

[vovagorodok]

As I remember Nim-Ble stack requires exact 6 digits pin. Try 123450 or 012345

Proposed to use ble_ota_app to change pin. It provides interface with 6 only digits pin code

[vovagorodok]

Renamed a bit from pin to pin code

how to run these examples on arduino ide is there any possibility to make them compatible with arduino ide

I'm PlatformIO user, for me easier to just add to my project:

build_flags =
    -D USE_NIM_BLE_ARDUINO_LIB
lib_deps =
    https://github.com/vovagorodok/ArduinoBleOTA

I have plans to add this library to PlatformIO Hub and prepare it to work in Arduino IDE. But for this moment there is one small issue that should be solved with non NimBle part of this library. I hope this month I'll done all of that

[vovagorodok]

Created issue in order to remember about it: https://github.com/vovagorodok/ArduinoBleOTA/issues/37

[vovagorodok]

Library available at ArduinoIDE as vovagorodok_ArduinoBleOTA.\ And at PlatformIO as:

build_flags =
    -D USE_NIM_BLE_ARDUINO_LIB
lib_deps =
    vovagorodok/ArduinoBleOTA@^1.0.0
