Maintenance
-----------
This repository is under minimal maintenance.
There is a more actively developed version available at [https://github.com/open-coap/java-coap](https://github.com/open-coap/java-coap) - you might want to check that repository out.
There are API differences, though.

Introduction
------------

This library makes it easy to integrate a Java SE enabled device with CoAP based services like [Izuma Networks Device Management](https://www.izumanetworks.com).
It can also help to emulate an embedded device for prototyping and testing purposes.

The following features are supported by the library:

* Complete CoAP support
- The Constrained Application Protocol [RFC 7252](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7252)
- Observing Resources in the Constrained Application Protocol [RFC 7641](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7641)
- Block-Wise Transfers in the Constrained Application Protocol [RFC 7959](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7959)
* CoRE Link Format processing API
- Constrained RESTful Environments (CoRE) Link Format [RFC 6690](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6690)
* CoAP server mode
* CoAP client mode
* Coap over tcp, tls [RFC 8323](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8323)
- excluding: websockets, observations with BERT blocks
* Network transports:
- UDP (plain text)
- TCP (plain text)
- TLS
* LwM2M TLV and JSON data formats

Requirements
------------

### Runtime:

* JRE 8
* JRE 11

### Development:

* JDK 8
* maven 3.x

Using the Library
-----------------

Add repository to build file:



jitpack.io
https://jitpack.io

Add dependency into your `pom.xml`:


com.mbed.java-coap
coap-core
{VERSION}

### Creating a Server

#### Initializing, starting and stopping the server

To initialize a server, you must at minimum define the port number. You must set the server parameters before starting a server.

CoapServer server = CoapServer.builder().transport(5683).build();
server.start();

To stop a server, use the `stop()` method.

server.stop();

#### Adding request handlers

You can add handlers before or while the server is running. There can be several URI paths assigned to the same handler.
You can also remove a handler at any time.

CoapHandler handler = new ReadOnlyCoapResource("24");
server.addRequestHandler("/temperature", handler);

server.removeRequestHandler(handler);

#### Creating CoAP resources

To create a CoAP resource, you must implement a `CoapHandler`. There is one abstract helper class `CoapResource` that can be extended. At minimum, implement the `get()` method.

The following example overrides `get()` and `put()` and creates a simple CoAP resource:

public class SimpleCoapResource extends CoapResource {
private String body="Hello World";

@Override
public void get(CoapExchange ex) throws CoapCodeException {
ex.setResponseBody("Hello World");
ex.setResponseCode(Code.C205_CONTENT);
ex.sendResponse();
}

@Override
public void put(CoapExchange ex) throws CoapCodeException {
body = ex.getRequestBodyString();
ex.setResponseCode(Code.C204_CHANGED);
ex.sendResponse();
}
}

### Creating a client

To make a CoAP request, use the class `CoapClient`. It uses fluent API. The following is a simple example on the usage:

CoapClient client = CoapClientBuilder.newBuilder(new InetSocketAddress("localhost",5683)).build();

CoapPacket coapResp = client.resource("/s/temp").sync().get();

coapResp = client.resource("/a/relay").payload("1", MediaTypes.CT_TEXT_PLAIN).sync().put();

//it is important to close connection in order to release socket
client.close();

Example client
--------------

This [example client](example-client) demonstrates how to build coap client.

Development
-----------

### Issues with localhost on Ubuntu

Ubuntu has IP addresses for localhost, `127.0.0.1` and `127.0.1.1`.
This causes problems with CoAP packets, the request and response address does not match.
Change both addresses to `127.0.0.1` or comment or remove the latter from `/etc/hosts` and change hostname to localhost.

To check hostname:

```
hostname
```

To change hostname to localhost:

```
sudo hostname localhost
```

### Build

mvn clean install

### Build with all checks enabled

mvn clean install -P ci

### Update license header

mvn com.mycila:license-maven-plugin:format
