BleCommands

.NET Build & Test

BleCommands is a simple and reliable library for exchanging text commands between devices via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). It provides a unified interface for .NET applications (MAUI, WPF, WinForms) and, together with the companion library for Arduino, makes it easy to control your BLE devices.

Features

  • Text-based protocol: Commands are human-readable, simplifying debugging.
  • Ease of use: No need to understand the intricacies of GATT, characteristics, descriptors or buffering.
  • Cross-platform: A single API for MAUI (Android/iOS), WPF, and WinForms.
  • Reliability: Automatic reassembly of fragmented packets, response waiting and timeouts.
  • Ready-to-use companion: The dedicated library for Arduino/ESP32 implements the server side of the protocol out of the box.
  • Advanced scenarios: Convenient work with a BLE device with access to native objects.

Installation

Add one of the following NuGet packages to your project:

# For MAUI applications (Android, iOS)
Install-Package BleCommands.Maui

# For Windows applications (WPF, WinForms, Console)
Install-Package BleCommands.Windows

Quick Start

If your Arduino sketch uses the Arduino companion library, then the work will be quite simple:

using var transport = await ArduinoClient.CreateTransportAsync("My BLE device");
await transport.StartAsync();
var response = await transport.SendCommandAsync("STATUS");

You can subscribe to regular messages from the device, as well as to timeout and connection loss events:

transport.ListeningTimeoutElapsed += (s, e) => { Console.WriteLine("Timeout"); };
transport.ListeningTokenReceived += (s, e) => { Console.WriteLine($"Token: {e.Text}"); };
transport.Disconnected += (s, e) => { Console.WriteLine("Device disconnected"); };
transport.StartListening(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));

You can work directly with Device, Service, and Characteristic objects. To release all system resources after work, simply dispose the Device object:

using var device = await new BleScanner().FindDeviceAsync("My BLE device");
var services = await device.GetServicesAsync();
var characteristics = await services.FirstOrDefault()?.GetCharacteristicsAsync();
