client side example of LBS using NCS

[Dan in Colorado]

Back in SDK 17 or so there were code samples for both the client and server side of the LED button service.

What happened to the client/central example when you migrated to NCS?  Is it still available under a different name?

I'm trying to run an nrf5340 as the central (in a dual role setup).  I'd like to call LBS specific discovery functions (i.e. bt_lbs_client_handles_assign() and bt_lbs_client_subscribe_button()) but they don't appear to exist..

Searching the internet, I see examples (likely from old SDK versions) that want me to include <client_LBS.h>  but this file does not exist in the ncs\v3.2.1 directory structure anywhere.

I'm running NCS v3.2.1 in VScode 

Note: your AI assistant directed me the the NUS central example, but it calls bt_nus_handles_assign and bt_nus_subscribe_receive which are exactly the analogous calls I'd like to make for LBS

I did not find the LBS peripheral example helpful for making a central  implementation.

So the answer is to write my own LBS_Client.  Since my end goal is to migrate from a (working) example of LBS client to a custom service, can I expect to be able to write an entirely custom service client based off NUS_Client or are there assumptions about how a service is organized that I must comply with?

Also, note, this central is actually a dual role nrf5340 that serves as a peripheral to an upstream host.  Does that change which example I should work with?

What I tried to say was to use the central_uart example to make a central implementation of the LBS client (or your custom service client).

That shouldn't affect things much. I would start with one of the roles, such as a custom_service_client application, and then add the peripheral when you get that working.
