Better structuring of example code? #262

Closed

Description

I got my own (ESP32-C6 only) code up here, but struggled quite extensively in detaching the logic from each other. I wanted to:

  • detach the "measuring" (data input) from BLE notifications
  • detach each service from the BLE server

I'll walk you through the current design construction, and then ask advice on the remaining (only one) "hot spot". :)

Files

examples/
└── y-emb
    ├── boot_btn_ble.rs      # BLE details for the button (service and characteristic)
    ├── boot_btn_task.rs    # feeds a Signal from the BOOT button on the devkit
    ├── config.in                   # some constants
    ├── main.rs                     # entry point; hw initialization
    └── server_ble.rs          # most of the BLE stuff 

Remaining trouble pun

The construction on this line is a hack.

   any_notify( boot_btn_feed, &server.bb.state, &server, &conn )
  • boot_btn_feed is actually an async poll for the next true/false value, ready to be placed for BLE notification
  • &server.bb.state is needed, because I didn't find a way to make code within the service/characteristic file (boot_btn_ble.rs) to reach its own .state characteristic. Need to study the macro expansions to understand how everything works...
  • access to serverand conn are needed, for placing a notification

The existing TrouBLE examples don't suffer of this, mostly because they don't even try to detach the Server and Services/Characteristics from each other.
