Hi again.

Doesn't seem that we have any bare minimum app example to specifically demonstrate those steps.

You can use our library to make a bare minimum app. The sample app, nRF Mesh, demonstrates how to use it.
Our developers suggested that you take a look at the provisioning folder in the app source code.
(https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/IOS-nRF-Mesh-Library/tree/main/Example/nRFMeshProvision/View%20Controllers/Network/Provisioning)
ScannerViewController handles scanning, ProvisioningViewController handles provisioning.
After provisioning a node requires configuration, e.g sending app keys, binding them etc.

If you have any specific questions related to the library, I'll be happy to forward these to our developers.

Br,
Joakim

Thank you for the additional information.

I don't work with the development of the mobile apps myself, but I can ask our mobile developers if they have anything like this that they can share.

I'll get back to you with any information from them.

Hello! Thank you for looking into this, I guess many are interested in a similar thing.

Right now im working with the provided files in the https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/IOS-nRF-Mesh-Library
We have an prototype that runs a esp32 and also an nrf52 prototype and to meet GTM timeline we have had to use the esp32 for the time being until we switch back to the nrf52.

As i recall the examples ive worked with on the nRF5 SDK are divided nicely for each type of model.
As i understand and see the example that is provided on the ios mesh library is the whole ios app with everything enabled.

I would love to understand the minimum viable to :

Scan for an unprovisioned node
Provision it
Switch the on off for a led.

As the app is being written in SwiftUI it gets a little confusing.

Is there something that can be shown for just these steps ?

Thanks /
Vincent

Hi.

Just to make sure; you aren't looking for a bare minimum example of the smart phone application?

Could you add which SDK you are working with (nRF5 SDK or NCS)? That way I can try help you understand the example we do provide.
