BlueFlow
Android Bluetooth classic API wrapped in Coroutines / Flow inspired by RxBluetooth and AndroidBluetoothLibrary.
Dependency
Add the following to your app module build.gradle file. Note that the respective Coroutine dependencies should also be included in the project.
dependencies {
implementation "io.github.thanosfisherman.blueflow:blueflow:<latest-version-number-here>"
}Permissions
The following permissions must be granted for this lib to be able to work correctly.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" />
<!-- Dangerous Permissions below. Make sure you explicitly ask for location Permissions in your app on Android 6.0+ -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>Usage
Under Construction! For now check the sample project which demonstrates the bluetooth device discovery.
Creating an instance
Create a Singleton instance of BlueFlow like so
val blueFlow: BlueFlow = BlueFlow.getInstance(applicationContext)Checking for Bluetooth availability
You can check whether bluetooth is available on a specific device and/or if it's enabled or not.
if (blueFlow.isBluetoothAvailable()) { //Checks if bluetooth is supported on this device
if (blueFlow.isBluetoothEnabled()) { //Checks if bluetooth is actually turned ON for this device
Toast.makeText(applicationContext, "BLUETOOTH IS ON", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
} else {
Toast.makeText(applicationContext, "PLEASE ENABLE BLUETOOTH", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
}
} else { //Bluetooth is NOT Supported on the device
Toast.makeText(applicationContext, "BLUETOOTH NOT AVAILABLE ON THIS DEVICE", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
