Adafruit_Mynewt

Adafruit_Mynewt (https://adafru.it/yAL) is a sample Mynewt project that we use internally for various projects and

experiments.

It isn't necessary to use this with the Adafruit Feather nRF52 Pro, but the repository contains a number of helper

modules and apps, and can help you get started working with things like BLE UART and general Bluetooth Low Energy

communication.

Installing Adafruit_Mynewt

To install and use the repo locally, first create a git clone of it using your favorite git IDE or from the command-line via:

Once the repository in installed locally, enter the Adafruit_Mynewt directory and install the Mynewt dependencies and

libraries via:

Provided Apps

Not all of the apps includes in the /apps folder are useful to everyone, but the following may serve as a good starting

point for you own applications of learning requirements:

bleuart (https://adafru.it/yAh): This example initialises the BLE stack, and includes a BLE UART service and shell

commands and statistics support to interact with the BLE UART service. This is the application that ships with

our boards off the assembly line.

throughput (https://adafru.it/yAP): This example can be used to test the throughput speed of BLE using BLE

UART. It includes a shell command (' nustest ') to start and configure the throughput tests.

Helper Modules

The following modules are defined as part of Adafruit_Mynewt to make certain tasks easier to implement:

adautil (https://adafru.it/yAQ): This module includes a number of helpers to facilitate working with UUIDs, config

settings, data logs, timer timeouts, etc.

bledis (https://adafru.it/yAR): This module facilitates working with the Device Information Service (dis)

bleuart (https://adafru.it/yAS): This module facilitates working with the Nordic UART Service (nus AKA 'BLE UART')

fifo (https://adafru.it/yAT): This module provides a First In First Out (FIFO) buffer implementation that plays well

with the internal scheduler and RTOS architecture

$ git clone git@github.com:adafruit/Adafruit_Mynewt.git

$ newt install -v

NOTE: You only need to run this command once, since the mynewt core libraries are not part of the

Adafruit_Mynewt repo itself and will be downloaded into the '/repos' folder by 'newt install'
