Bluetooth Filter
The Bluetooth Filter library allows for a more fine grained discovery. Developed with purpose-build Android application were they connect to one or two specific Bluetooth devices in mind. The Bluetooth Filter library allows those apps to only provide a minimum list of results to their users instead of the usual general list of all devices found.
How to Use
Step 1
Include the below dependencies in your build.gradle project.
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
maven {
url "http://code.newtronlabs.com:8081/artifactory/libs-release-local"
}
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.3'
classpath "com.newtronlabs.android:plugin:1.1.0"
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
maven {
url "http://code.newtronlabs.com:8081/artifactory/libs-release-local"
}
}
}
subprojects {
apply plugin: 'com.newtronlabs.android'
}
In the build.gradle of your app.
dependencies {
provided 'com.newtronlabs.bluetoothfilter:bluetoothfilter:2.0.0'
}
Step 2
Implement the IDiscoveryListener
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements IDiscoveryListener {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
@Override
protected void onResume()
{
super.onResume();
List<IDeviceFilter> filterList = new ArrayList<IDeviceFilter>();
// Discover any BT Device with an address starting with 0.
filterList.add(new NameAddressFilter("XYZ Random", ".*", "0.*"));
FilterBluetoothAdapter.getAdapter().startDiscovery(this, filterList, this);
}
@Override
public void onDiscoveryStarted()
{
Log.d("Test", "Discovery Started");
}
@Override
public void onDeviceFound(IDevice deviceFound)
{
Log.d("Test", "Device Found: Class - "
+ deviceFound.getClassification() + " Dev: " + deviceFound.getDevice());
}
@Override
public void onDiscoveryFinished()
{
Log.d("Test", "Discovery Finished");
}
}
