## How to build PlatformIO based project
1. [Install PlatformIO Core](http://docs.platformio.org/page/core.html)
2. Download [development the repository with examples](https://github.com/ldab/Arduino-u-blox-NINA-w10)
3. Extract ZIP archive
4. Run these commands:
```
# Change directory to example
> cd Arduino-u-blox-NINA-W10
# Build project
> platformio run
# Upload firmware
> platformio run --target upload
# Build specific environment
> platformio run -e nina_W10
# Upload firmware for the specific environment
> platformio run -e nina_W10 --target upload
# Clean build files
> platformio run --target clean
```
## TODO
- [ ] Assing defined PIN for connection;
- [ ] Stop advertising;
## Why?
This example tries to implement some key functions and key PIN atributes in order to get you started with using Arduino and the Multiradio board u-blox NINA-W10.
## BLE Server, Client, Central, Peripheral ????? 😕
BLE roles are a bit confusing, at least to me, [Neil Kolban](https://github.com/nkolban) the same person behind the `ESP32 BLE Lib` has made some material available on his [YouTube Channel](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgI7WRr5cgE)
Basicaly:
* Peripheral -> Advertises
* Central -> Scans for Peripherals
* GATT Server -> Device which has the database and provide resources to the Client. PS. Server does not send data, unless Client requests.
* GATT Client -> Access remote Server resources.
Generally, Peripheral = Server. Therefore if you're working on a end device, an activity tracker for example, it's likely to be set as a Peripheral.
## Examples
* Two examples are provided:
* [Client](./Client/), connecting to a Peripheral GATT Server;
* [Server](./Server/), connecting to a Central GATT Client;
## Using with s-center
* In order to test this example, NINA-W10 (Central/Client) connects to NINA-B1 (Peripheral/Server) via s-center and write the SHT31 temperature to the `FFE1` characteristics and humidity to `2A6F`.
## Partition Table and Flash size
* You can create a custom partitions table (CSV) following [ESP32 Partition Tables](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/api-guides/partition-tables.html) documentation.
* Partitions examples are available at [GitHub arduino-esp32](https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/tree/master/tools/partitions)
* `minimal.csv` is the default defined on [nina_w10.json](https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif32/blob/master/boards/nina_w10.json) however I changed it in order to free some space up used by spiffs found on `partitions_custom.csv` [here](./partitions_custom.csv)
* No OTA;
* No SPIFFS;
* No EEPROM;
## Erase Flash
`pio run -t erase` - > all data will be replaced with 0xFF bytes.
## Bluetooth iOS and Android app
* The [nRF Connect for Mobile](https://www.nordicsemi.com/Software-and-Tools/Development-Tools/nRF-Connect-for-mobile) App from Nordic Semiconductor can alse be used in order to communicate and learn more about BLE and its details:
* You can download the sample Bluetooth low energy app - BLE App straight from u-blox wesite: [https://www.u-blox.com/en/product/bluetooth-ios-and-android-app](https://www.u-blox.com/en/product/bluetooth-ios-and-android-app)
