Bluetooth Low Energy Python

[sonus89]

Hi there,
I can only find C++ examples for Bluetooth Low Energy on Windows.
It is not easy to convert the C++ code into Python.
Are there any BLE examples for PyQt? ( scan, connect, notify, write....etc. ) Basic methods needed.

Or at least... could somebody tell the pythonic version of the first sample - Scan Devices here:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtbluetooth-lowenergyscanner-example.html

@Denni-0 said in Bluetooth Low Energy Python:

There are elements (if I understood their statements) of Qt5 that have not been ported to PyQt5 (which is the most complete of the 2 options) due to Qt not sharing those items openly but that could have been old news or new news or misunderstood/misquoted news -- not sure.

What statements are you talking about ?
The QtConnectivity module which provides Bluetooth support is available: https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtconnectivity.git

@Denni-0 Everything works fine in PyQt5. I could import the modules and I am half way done with converting C++ sample code into Python. However I am stuck at the "connect" method... I was curious if these codelines already exist somewhere in Python.

So the question is not "if it works in Python" the question was "how to convert the C++ example into Python".

C++

connect(fooWidget, &MyWidget::mySignal, barWidget, &HisWidget::mySlot);

Python;

fooWidget.mySignal.connect(barWidget.mySlot)

@SGaist Thanks!

This means that in C++:

discoveryAgent = new QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent();
discoveryAgent->setLowEnergyDiscoveryTimeout(5000);
connect(discoveryAgent, &QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent::deviceDiscovered,
this, &Device::addDevice);
connect(discoveryAgent, QOverloadQBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent::Error::of(&QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent::error),
this, &Device::deviceScanError);
connect(discoveryAgent, &QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent::finished, this, &Device::deviceScanFinished);
discoveryAgent->start(QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent::LowEnergyMethod);

In Python:

discoveryAgent = QtBluetooth.QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent()
discoveryAgent.setLowEnergyDiscoveryTimeout(5000)
discoveryAgent.deviceDiscovered.connect(addDevice)
discoveryAgent.start()

Can you confirm?

@sonus89
That's more or less right, I don't know how exact you want the answer to be. You're not passing the argument to discoveryAgent.start(), if that matters. You've omitted some of the connects. The connect you show would be

discoveryAgent.deviceDiscovered.connect(self.addDevice)

@Denni-0 Thanks!

self.DiscvryAgent.start()

This needs an input parameter but I can not find it in python.
For example LowEnergyMethod
