pc-ble-driver-py pairing/bonding

[vit bernatik]

Hello, it seems that pc-ble-drive-py has no API for pairing/bonding. I would like to use it for my test framework. I would want API for:

• Initiate pairing
• accept/decline paring request from DUT
• bond
• delete bonding information

Will you please add API for this? If so when are you going to do? And if so will you document the pc-ble-drive-py API and proivde example for pairing?

Hi Vit,

Currently the pc-ble-driver-py doesn't have API for bonding and pairing. But the pc-ble-driver has. For example you can find pairing sd_ble_gap_encrypt and other APIs here.

You may need to modify the pc-ble-driver-py to add them in.

I don't have clear date on when it will be updated to the pc-ble-driver-py.

thank you for workaround suggestion. Are you planning to put all functionality from pc-ble-driver(C) into pc-ble-driver-py (python wrapper)? And I understand you do not have clear dates - but can you tell it at least roughly? For example it is planed to be finished within 6 week, within 6 months or within 2 years...?

Hi Vit,

I would suggest you to contact our sale representative to send your request. We don't discuss about roadmap and future product in this forum :) If you don't have contact of our sale staff yet, please let me know your area (country/state).

Hi Vit,

I am working on extending pc-ble-driver-py with pairing/bonding and thinking to initiate a Github Pull-Request. But, I am not convinced enough to do the work since I do not see Nordic accepting/checking Github Pull-Requests in the last months.
