nRF5 SDK V14.1 IOT capabilities

[vincent.golle]

Hi all,

I am currently building an app that does HTTP requests to Strava (strava.github.io/.../).

Before going deeper into the SDK, I would like to know if it will be able to handle the advanced authentication scheme used by Strava...

My questions are:

• Is OAuth2 supported ?
• Are HTTP GET/POST requests supported ?

Also do you know any great iPhone app to act as the IOT/BLE server instead of a raspberry Pi ?

Many thanks ;-)

Hi,

Unfortunately, OAuth2 and HTTP is currently not supported by our (IoT) SDK. I have forwarded your request to the responsible developers, but I cannot say anything about if/when this will be implemented.

You could implement this yourself, on top of the 6LowPAN modules in the SDK.

I'm not aware of any iPhone apps that can act as IoT/BLE server for IPv6 packets, but for Android you can check out nRF Cloud Gateway for Android (download link available after signup/login), which can be used together with our cloud development service, nrfcloud.com. An iPhone version will most likely be provided in the future as well. This cloud solution does not provide IPv6 connectivity to the end-node, but use a gataway to translate BLE GATT services to and from internet.

Best regards,

Jørgen
