Beacon data from Ble.scan problem

[Murali Krishna Dev U]

Hi

My objective is to get the beacon data from advertising data i.e. uuid+Manfacturing data+Major_Minor+txpower,

I am unable to get whole beacon data from ble.start scan,

Pleas help me in this regard,

The following is the code,
---------------------------------------------
if (device.advertisementData) { return; }


if (!device.scanRecord) { return; }




var byteArray = evothings.util.base64DecToArr(device.scanRecord);
var pos = 0;
var advertisementData = {};
var serviceUUIDs;
var serviceData;

while (pos < byteArray.length) {
var length = byteArray[pos++];
if (length == 0) {
break;
}
length -= 1;
var type = byteArray[pos++];


var BLUETOOTH_BASE_UUID = '-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb'

// Convert 16-byte Uint8Array to RFC-4122-formatted UUID.
function arrayToUUID(array, offset) {
var k = 0;
var string = '';
var UUID_format = [4, 2, 2, 2, 6];
for (var l = 0; l < UUID_format.length; l++) {
if (l != 0) {
string += '-';
}
for (var j = 0; j < UUID_format[l]; j++, k++) {
string += evothings.util.toHexString(array[offset + k], 1);
}
}
return string;
}

if (type == 0x02 || type == 0x03) // 16-bit Service Class UUIDs.
{
serviceUUIDs = serviceUUIDs ? serviceUUIDs : [];
for (var i = 0; i < length; i += 2) {
serviceUUIDs.push(
'0000' +
evothings.util.toHexString(
evothings.util.littleEndianToUint16(byteArray, pos + i),
2) +
BLUETOOTH_BASE_UUID);
}
}
if (type == 0x04 || type == 0x05) // 32-bit Service Class UUIDs.
{
serviceUUIDs = serviceUUIDs ? serviceUUIDs : [];
for (var i = 0; i < length; i += 4) {
serviceUUIDs.push(
evothings.util.toHexString(
evothings.util.littleEndianToUint32(byteArray, pos + i),
4) +
BLUETOOTH_BASE_UUID);
}
}
if (type == 0x06 || type == 0x07) // 128-bit Service Class UUIDs.
{
serviceUUIDs = serviceUUIDs ? serviceUUIDs : [];
for (var i = 0; i < length; i += 16) {
serviceUUIDs.push(arrayToUUID(byteArray, pos + i));
}
}
if (type == 0x08 || type == 0x09) // Local Name.
{
advertisementData.kCBAdvDataLocalName = evothings.ble.fromUtf8(
new Uint8Array(byteArray.buffer, pos, length));
}
if (type == 0x0a) // TX Power Level.
{
advertisementData.kCBAdvDataTxPowerLevel =
evothings.util.littleEndianToInt8(byteArray, pos);
}
if (type == 0x16) // Service Data, 16-bit UUID.
{
serviceData = serviceData ? serviceData : {};
var uuid =
'0000' +
evothings.util.toHexString(
evothings.util.littleEndianToUint16(byteArray, pos),
2) +
BLUETOOTH_BASE_UUID;
var data = new Uint8Array(byteArray.buffer, pos + 2, length - 2);
serviceData[uuid] = base64.fromArrayBuffer(data);
}
if (type == 0x20) // Service Data, 32-bit UUID.
{
serviceData = serviceData ? serviceData : {};
var uuid =
evothings.util.toHexString(
evothings.util.littleEndianToUint32(byteArray, pos),
4) +
BLUETOOTH_BASE_UUID;
var data = new Uint8Array(byteArray.buffer, pos + 4, length - 4);
serviceData[uuid] = base64.fromArrayBuffer(data);
}
if (type == 0x21) // Service Data, 128-bit UUID.
{
serviceData = serviceData ? serviceData : {};
var uuid = arrayToUUID(byteArray, pos);
var data = new Uint8Array(byteArray.buffer, pos + 16, length - 16);
serviceData[uuid] = base64.fromArrayBuffer(data);
}
if (type == 0xff) // Manufacturer-specific Data.
{
// Annoying to have to transform base64 back and forth,
// but it has to be done in order to maintain the API.
advertisementData.kCBAdvDataManufacturerData =
base64.fromArrayBuffer(new Uint8Array(byteArray.buffer, pos, length));
}

pos += length;
}
advertisementData.kCBAdvDataServiceUUIDs = serviceUUIDs;
advertisementData.kCBAdvDataServiceData = serviceData;
device.advertisementData = advertisementData;

Waiting for your response,

Thanks and Regards,

I used cordova Ble scan plugin in Visual studio 2015,

Thanks and Regards,

Hi!

Please let us know what you do actually get, some of the data but not all? Can you dump this for us, e.g. using hyper.log() if you're
using Evothings Studio or log info from Visual Studio (which we don't use ourselves)

Are you running on Android or iOS? They do reveal different sets of info, like the MAC address not being
visible on iOS devices.

best
