π β π₯Έπ‘ Feed me with a JSON file and I will mock you a BLE peripheral with fake notifies and reponses to read in no time!
ble-peripheral-faker is build on top of bleno.
Simply build a JSON file respecting the described format and the module will care of mouting a gatt server as a ble peripheral with random values to read and notifies at random times from your JSON file.
- Ble peripheral
- Custom services and characteristics from the JSON file
- Automatic random values to read and notified from an array in the JSON file
- Notifies are triggered by a random timer using a min and a max value set in the JSON file
git clone https://github.com/somq/ble-peripheral-faker.git
cd ble-peripheral-faker
npm i
npm start -- example-peripheral.json
Troubleshoot
Under the hood, this tool uses a fork of Bleno
In case of dependency build/start issue, please refer to the Bleno docs
A good starting point is to install core dependencies and rebuild dependencies withnpm rebuild
JSON file must respect the following format:
{
"name": "PheripheralName",
"advertising": ["0x01", "0x02"],
"advertisementData": [3, 25, 0, 0, 2, 1, 5, 3, 3, 10, 24, 19, 9, 79, 67, 80, 67, 99, 54, 32, 35, 49, 57, 57, 57, 56, 56, 56, 48, 48, 48],

property | value description |
---|---|
name | the name you wish to give to your peripheral |
advertising | classic advertising values |
advertisementData & scanData | EIR formated advertising data |
services | an array of objects each containing service data |
uuid | uuid of your service |
characteristics | an array of objects each containing characteristic data |
properties | an array of strings containing characteristics properties (refer to bleno doc.) |
characteristicName | a string identifying a characteristic |
notifyValues | an array of strings containing hex-string. This is the values used to notify or respond to read on the characteristic |
notifyIntervalMax | a int used to set the max interval time Notifies are triggered at a random time between one of the notifyIntervalMin and notifyIntervalMax values |
notifyIntervalMin | a int used to set the min interval time Notifies are triggered at a random time between one of the notifyIntervalMin and notifyIntervalMax values |
Implement random automatic response on write when writeWithoutResponse is false.
