Use Button Handler in Zephyr environment

Hi Bojan,

It is not easy to port the nRF 5 SDK API to that compatible with Zephyr.. It should be possible to do this the way you mentioned in theory. But It's always be better to use the drivers and libraries that are already part of nRF Connect SDK instead of porting... We have the DK button and LED library instead of this in nRF Connect SDK: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/1.8.0/nrf/libraries/others/dk_buttons_and_leds.html

Kind Regards,

Swathy

Hello, SwRa.

Thanks for your feedback.

I am aware we can't use Button Handler module as it is in the Zephyr environment. Would it be possible to port it to the Zephyr environment somehow? For example, to use Zephyr timers instead of SDK app_timers and nrfx_gpiote drivers instead of nrf_drv_gpiote.

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Bojan.

Hi Bojan,

The Button Handler module cannot be used to build applications with Zephyr OS (nRF Connect SDK). It is used in nRF 5 SDK and the API for this platforms is completely different from that used with nRF Connect for Desktop. Kindly take a look at this: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/libraries/caf/buttons.html?highlight=button%20handler
