Maybe we should consider implementing a simple Thermometer role in
BlueZ for testing purposes. It is a relatively simple profile.


So you mean something like optional org.bluez.ThermometerSensor interface on
adapter, similar to what is done for reporter role for Proximity?

Yes. There has been some interest on the past on the mailing list from
people willing to implement this role on BlueZ (although I have not
heard anymore from them), so it would become not just a test plugin,
but have an API that allows for BlueZ to expose some external
thermometer measurements over LE. But for now a "dummy" thermometer
which sends dummy measurements in various formats should be enough
(probably enabled only with --enable-test so it is not installed in
production).

Do you have interest/time for working on something like this?

I could take a look on this in spare time, sure.

By "dummy" thermometer you mean separate plugin (dummythermometer or sth) which, once enabled, will register service in GATT and send dummy measurements when configured by remote? Or perhaps develop it inside thermometer profile (implemented as described above) so it can be changed into full blown thermometer role with API etc. later?

BTW, I definitely plan to test both your HRP implementation and the
HTP changes, but currently I'm working in other things... I'll let you
know once I have these tested (probably with patches if I find any
issues).

I should have BLE PTS dongle this week so will test both implementations as well in case you won't manage to do this until then.

BR,
Andrzej
