I guess it would be a good idea to have a README in peripheral directory explaining the setup/architecture, etc, much like we did for Android. > The way I thought best about integrating BlueZ with Soletta was to add > another mainloop backend using libsoletta so every event would be > handled consistently.

It seems like it as long as we don't make our shared code public, as a shared library, I believe BlueZ will be the right place. > What do you say? I suppose we need a bit more information regarding what kind of setups this is targeting, I suppose this is to be run on systems without D-Bus, something like all-in-one design? I don't mind having another mainloop but the unit tests are currently limited to glib only so it won't catch bugs/regressions with other mainloops perhaps we need to address this. The IoT setups seems to be pretty open right now, from what I heard there are setups that would run systemd+bluetoothd(dual-mode/le-only), bluetoothd(dual-mode/le-only), all-in-one(le-only) setups, for le-only setups Im afraid we will need to make the code even more modular to reduce the memory footprint, so perhaps we should nail down what setups really make sense to be supported upstream For example setups that require classic will very likely require audio or/and obexd which probably pulls everything we have, so I guess it makes little sense to put any effort making this part of the code more memory efficient. > Any questions about the project, we are hanging out in #soletta @ freenode.net. > > Cheers, > > [1] https://github.com/solettaproject/soletta > > Vinicius Costa Gomes (13): > build: Add configure-time checks for soletta > shared: Add a mainloop implementation using soletta > peripheral/gatt: Fix usage of mainloop_ functions > peripheral/gatt: Add a way to external services to register services > peripheral/gap: Fix missing includes > peripheral/gap: Init the gatt_server > peripheral: Disable support for static random addresses > peripheral/gap: Set the discoverable flag in the advertising > peripheral/gatt: Use LOW security level > soletta/heartrate: Add a node-type for the Heartrate profile > .gitignore: Ignore soletta generated files > build: Add heartrate soletta node type to the build system > soletta: Add a sample flow using the heartrate node > > .gitignore | 4 + > Makefile.am | 7 +- > Makefile.tools | 20 +++ > configure.ac | 38 ++++++ > peripheral/gap.c | 12 +- > peripheral/gatt.c | 124 ++++++++++++----- > peripheral/gatt.h | 6 + > soletta/heartrate-src.json | 30 +++++ > soletta/heartrate.c | 298 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > soletta/heartrate.fbp | 1 + > soletta/sol-flow.conf | 2 + Id put soletta code under peripheral/soletta as it appears to depend on that anyway. > src/shared/io-soletta.c | 315 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > src/shared/timeout-soletta.c | 112 +++++++++++++++ > 13 files changed, 934 insertions(+), 35 deletions(-) > create mode 100644 soletta/heartrate-src.json > create mode 100644 soletta/heartrate.c > create mode 100644 soletta/heartrate.fbp > create mode 100644 soletta/sol-flow.conf > create mode 100644 src/shared/io-soletta.c > create mode 100644 src/shared/timeout-soletta.c > > -- > 2.4.5 > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- Luiz Augusto von Dentz -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
