Documentation Status Discord Build Status

CircuitPython BLE library for Google’s open “physical web” Eddystone.

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ble-eddystone

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ble-eddystone

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ble-eddystone

Usage Example

"""This example broadcasts our Mac Address as our Eddystone ID and a link to the Adafruit Discord
   server."""

import time

import adafruit_ble
from adafruit_ble_eddystone import uid, url

radio = adafruit_ble.BLERadio()

# Reuse the BLE address as our Eddystone instance id.
eddystone_uid = uid.EddystoneUID(radio.address_bytes)
eddystone_url = url.EddystoneURL("https://adafru.it/discord")

while True:
    # Alternate between advertising our ID and our URL.
    radio.start_advertising(eddystone_uid)
    time.sleep(0.5)
    radio.stop_advertising()

    radio.start_advertising(eddystone_url)
    time.sleep(0.5)
    radio.stop_advertising()

    time.sleep(4)
