Previously, the DeviceCommunicationService was invoked directly,
via
Intent intent = new Intent(foo, bar);
intent.setExtra(EXTRA_BAZ, baz);
startService(...);
and this was scattered throughout GadgetBridge.
Now there is a "frontend" available, so that you can call
the service more easily, like
GBApplication.deviceService().connect();
For a start, this client interface (DeviceService) actually
implements the same interface (EventHandler) as the receiving side
(DeviceSupport). This may change in the future.
This will also make testing much easier, because we can use
this client interface to invoke the test service as well.
- the BASE_UUID is shared between all BTLE devices, not miband specific. So are the UUID DESCRIPTORS. Hence these have been moved to AbstractBTLEDeviceSupport
- the gatt-characteristic-property-constants used previously in MiBandNotifyAction are also general, and exposed by the gatt subsystem, hence the specific action has been dropped moving the logic to the NotifyAction class
- the logic for checking the gatt-characteristic-property-constants has been extended also to the ReadAction and WriteAction class, this way we won't try to read (or write) a characteristic that isn't readable (or writeable)
- model package contains mostly shared interfaces (UI+service), not named GB*
- impl package contains implementations of those interfaces, named GB*
the impl classes should not be used by the service (not completely done)
- the service classes should mostly use classes inside the service and deviceevents
packages (tbd)
Every device now has two packages:
- devices/[device name] for UI related functionality
- service[device name] for lowlevel communication
