I am trying to setup a project using com.evothings.ble to access Bluetooth LE functionality.

I have tried following the instructions found at http://evothings.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1410 without success.

Is there a sample projects using BLE?

Does it fail to build when you include the plugin or are you just having issues interfacing with the plugin in your app?

I dont think there is a sample, I have never tried this plugin before.

Start with the blank Cordova project and then import the code and instructions on that post you reference into that blank project.

The project builds, but when I run it, it behaves as if the evothings.ble plugin were not there (no devices listed etc).

If I run the same program through EvoThings workbench, it works fine.

I have noticed that when I import Standard Cordova Plugins, I find related subdirectories in the plugins folder (e.g. org.apache.cordova.battery-status, org.apache.cordova.camera etc).

I cannot find any directory related to the evothings.ble plugin, even if it is listed in the third party plugins section.

When you say you "run" the app, what do you mean? Third-party plugins won't run in the Emulate tab, Test tab or Debug tab. You have to actually build the app to see those plugins work. See this doc: https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/docs/intel-xdk-debug-and-test-overview#RemoteChromeDevTools

I actually compile the app, download it from the Intel server and install it on the phone (Samsung Galaxy S5).

Having no idea how that code

Having no idea how that code works, I'm afraid I can't help much. I recommend you work with the developers of the code to understand what is necessary to make it work.

Dear Carlo,

Dear Carlo,

I only recently found this your post, and by now you've hopefully solved your issue by other means, while for anyone reading this thread I hope to add some info here.

Evothings is the maintainer of a Cordova BLE plugin and the easy-ble.js library for simplified Bluetooth Smart development. We're successfully built the BLE demos using both command line tools and build services like cordova.build.com without flaws, new examples are also added. We'd love to work more closely with the Intel XDK, while we have had some knowledge of this system, this opportunity has passed us by until now.

The precompiled Viewer app holds a BLE plug-in, and several other plugins preinstalled, so you can test your project there without compiling anything. See complete list here:

Cordova Plugins

Evothings Viewer comes pre-packaged with the following Cordova Plugins.

Note that the JavaScript source files for the plugins are packaged into the Evothings Viewer app. You don't need to explicitly include these files in your HTML code, they are included automatically with cordova.js.
