# *** UPDATE ***
Server now handles long reads and writes, still work to do on client.

NEW Client callback created - ```bool onConnParamsUpdateRequest(NimBLEClient* pClient, const ble_gap_upd_params* params)```   
Called when the server wants to change the connection parameters, return true to accept them or false if not.   
Check NimBLE_Client.ino example for a demonstration.   


# esp-nimble-cpp
A fork of the NimBLE stack restructured for compilation in the Ardruino IDE with a CPP library for use with ESP32.

Why? Because the Bluedroid library is too bulky. 

Initial client code testing has resulted in code size reduction of ~115k and reduced ram consumption of ~37k.

  
# Installation:

Download as .zip and extract to components folder in your esp-idf project.

`#include "NimBLEDevice.h"` in main.cpp.


# Usage: 

This library is intended to be compatible with the original ESP32 BLE functions and types with minor changes.


# Acknowledgments:

* @nkolban and @chegewara for the [original esp32 BLE library](https://github.com/nkolban/esp32-snippets) this project was derived from.
* @beegee-tokyo for contributing your time to test/debug and contributing the beacon examples.


# Todo:

1. Code cleanup.
2. Create documentation.
3. Expose more NimBLE features.
4. Add BLE Mesh code.
