SimpleBluetoothLibrary
======================
[](http://android-arsenal.com/details/1/1680)
[](https://jitpack.io/#DeveloperPaul123/SimpleBluetoothLibrary)
## Description
This library makes it easy for you to implement bluetooth in your Android app. The SimpleBlueooth class handles all the hard work for you and all you have to do is make a few method calls.
## Dependency
````java
repositories {
....
maven {url "https://jitpack.io"}
}
dependencies {
....
compile 'com.github.DeveloperPaul123:SimpleBluetoothLibrary:1.5.1'
}
````
## Requirements
Min SDK Level is 14 or Android IceCreamSandwich
## Usage
This library provides a `BaseBluetoothActivity` that you inherit from to easily take care of:
- Enabling bluetooth
- Scanning for new devices.
- Connecting to a device.
- Receiving data from the device.
- Sending data to the device.
As an example:
````java
public class TestActivity extends BaseBluetoothActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//set your content view here.
}
@Override
public void onBluetoothEnabled() {
super.onBluetoothEnabled();
//this is always called, when bluetooth is enabled.
//by default the activity will start a scan. If you don't want this
//delete the super call.
}
@Override
public void onDeviceSelected(String macAddress) {
super.onDeviceSelected(macAddress);
//this is called when a device is selected from the scan activity. By default,
//the selected device will be connected to. If you don't want this, delete the super call.
}
@Override
public void onBluetoothDataReceived(byte[] bytes, String data) {
//called when data is received from the device.
}
@Override
public void onDeviceConnected(BluetoothDevice device) {
}
@Override
public void onDeviceDisconnected(BluetoothDevice device) {
}
@Override
public void onDiscoveryStarted() {
}
@Override
public void onDiscoveryFinished() {
}
}
````
Alternatively you can use the ````SimpleBluetooth```` class yourself:
````java
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private SimpleBluetooth simpleBluetooth;
private static final int SCAN_REQUEST = 119;
private static final int CHOOSE_SERVER_REQUEST = 120;
//...other code....//
private String curMacAddress;
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
simpleBluetooth = new SimpleBluetooth(this, new SimpleBluetoothListener() {
@Override
public void onBluetoothDataReceived(byte[] bytes, String data) {
//read the data coming in.
}
@Override
public void onDeviceConnected(BluetoothDevice device) {
//a device is connected so you can now send stuff to it
}
@Override
public void onDeviceDisconnected(BluetoothDevice device) {
// device was disconnected so connect it again?
}
@Override
public void onDiscoveryStarted() {
}
@Override
public void onDiscoveryFinished() {
}
});
simpleBluetooth.initializeSimpleBluetooth();
}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
//...other code...//
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
} else if (id == R.id.scan) {
simpleBluetooth.scan(SCAN_REQUEST);
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode == SCAN_REQUEST || requestCode == CHOOSE_SERVER_REQUEST) {
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
curMacAddress = data.getStringExtra(DeviceDialog.DEVICE_DIALOG_DEVICE_ADDRESS_EXTRA);
if(requestCode == SCAN_REQUEST) {
simpleBluetooth.connectToBluetoothDevice(curMacAddress);
} else {
simpleBluetooth.connectToBluetoothServer(curMacAddress);
}
}
}
}
@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
simpleBluetooth.endSimpleBluetooth();
}
}
````
Finally, the library allows for an alternative way to receive data. Say you're using an Arduino or something similar that is sending out a newline character at the end of every loop. You can read this data using a buffered input type through the following line:
````java
simpleBluetooth.setInputStreamType(BluetoothUtility.InputStreamType.BUFFERED);
````
This will case the input type to change and you should receieve the data line by line.
Additionally, this library allows for the creation and connection to a bluetooth server. Simply call:
````java
simpleBluetooth.createBluetoothServerConnection();
````
and on the connecting device call:
````java
//curMacAddress is the address of the server device.
simpleBluetooth.connectToBluetoothServer(curMacAddress);
````
Finally, the library can handle A2DP protocols, although this has not yet been tested.
