Added

  • Better feedback of communication errors to user in .NET backend and implementing error details proposed in #174.
  • Two devices example file to use for e.g. debugging.
  • Detection/discovery callbacks in Core Bluetooth backend Scanner implemented.
  • Characteristic handle printout in service_explorer.py.
  • Added scanning filters to .NET backend's discover method.

Changed

  • Replace NSRunLoop with dispatch queue in Core Bluetooth backend. This causes callbacks to be dispatched on a background thread instead of on the main dispatch queue on the main thread. call_soon_threadsafe() is used to synchronize the events with the event loop where the central manager was created. Fixes #111.
  • The Central Manager is no longer global in the Core Bluetooth backend. A new one is created for each BleakClient and BleakScanner. Fixes #206 and #105.
  • Merged #167 and reworked characteristics handling in Bleak. Implemented in all backends; bleak now uses the characteristics' handle to identify and keep track of them. Fixes #139 and #159 and allows connection for devices with multiple instances of the same characteristic UUIDs.
  • In requirements.txt and Pipfile, the requirement on pythonnet was bumped to version 2.5.1, which seems to solve issues described in #217 and #225.
  • Renamed HISTORY.rst to CHANGELOG.rst and adopted the Keep a Changelog format.
  • Python 3.5 support from macOS is officially removed since pyobjc>6 requires 3.6+
  • Pin pyobjc dependencies to use at least version 6.2. (PR #194)
  • Pin development requirement on bump2version to version 1.0.0
  • Added .pyup.yml for Pyup
  • Using CBManagerState constants from pyobj instead of integers.

Removed

  • Removed documentation note about not using new event loops in Linux. This was fixed by #143.
  • _central_manager_delegate_ready was removed in macOS backend.
  • Removed the bleak.backends.bluez.utils.get_gatt_service_path method. It is not used by
    bleak and possibly generates errors.

Fixed

  • Improved handling of the txdbus connection to avoid hanging of disconnection clients in BlueZ backend. Fixes #216, #219 & #221.
  • #150 hints at the device path not being possible to create as is done in the get_device_object_path method. Now, we try to get it from BlueZ first. Otherwise, use the old fallback.
  • Minor documentation errors corrected.
  • CBManagerStatePoweredOn is now properly handled in Core Bluetooth.
  • Device enumeration in discoverand Scanner corrected. Fixes #211
  • Updated documentation about scanning filters.
  • Handle missing isScanning boolean on macOS < 10.13. Fixes #234.
