nRF connect user definitions

[ned_zeppelin]

I have a feature request for the user_definitions.json file, which can be used to name custom services and characteristics in nRF Connect.

Any plans for adding more functionality with regards to the formatting of the characteristic fields?

The documentation says "Currently the only supported format is 'TEXT', default is 'NO_FORMAT'." A way to separate (and name) the fields of a characteristic into int/uint8/16/32 etc. would be very useful. This would be an great feature for verification and testing/prototyping and logging of data (without as much post-processing).

Supporting the XML format used by SIG (with enumerations and bit-fields as well) would also be nice, but being able to format the fields is my main concern/request.

Hi,

This is for nRF Connect for PC?

[ned_zeppelin]

Sorry, I forgot to specify. But I meant the app (Android version).

Hi, I have forwarded your feature request to the developers.

Hi, the same format is used by nRF Connect for PC and Android. We'd gladly implement it, but there are so much things to do... Nevertheless this is in our backlog. Thanks for the feature request. If you have a custom char that you want to include in the app you may write me a PM and I'll add it, like i did for micro: bit. ,

OK, thanks!
