BLE connection between Bangle.js 2 and Windows - Suggestions?

Hi there,
I'm looking for a fast-implementing way of connecting and communicating with my bangle.js 2 and a windows app, do you have any suggestions on any .dll or library to use?
Thanks in advance

If it is windows 10 then there is native API, if you can read c# then check https://github.com/fanoush/BLEConsole I only tested it and did few minor tunings to the code but the API did not look hard to use. The library/nuget used is here https://github.com/fanoush/BLEConsole/bl­ob/master/BLEConsole/packages.config

Otherwise there are python and nodejs bindings but I did not test them and I think they mostly take over whole USB bluetooth device via custom driver and use HCI so the adapter is unusable for rest of the system.

Thanks, yep actually I'm looking for C# console app, so that's perfect. Have you tried to integrate bangle.js app with Windows?

No. but the code is there to do it, I got ble console to the point that you can send data and receive response even larger than MTU size

see this output
https://gist.github.com/fanoush/c17263e5­7e5ea204de7b2bb01d2a258f
if you would turn off verbose output it looks more sane - you send js command to nordic uart and get response (line 47)

So if you would make it into some nordic uart communication dll so that you could connect and read/ write over simple calls, that would be nice. I actually wanted to do this and remove all that interactive stuff but never got the time.

You might want some inspiration from https://www.espruino.com/Interfacing

Thanks. There is noble-uwp listed there that looks a bit dated and does not install for me via npm but it refers noble-winrt https://github.com/Timeular/noble-winrt which looks more up to date and uses same winrt api as bleconsole.

It is not super updated, see https://github.com/Timeular/noble-winrt/­pulls - the first PR would be nice to be merged, but just tested it on my win10 machine and it installs fine via npm and can scan for devices with built-in BLE adapter without breaking anything. My bluetooth audio headphones still play while scanning nearby BLE devices and printing device info :-)

Also just tried bleak https://pypi.org/project/bleak/ and seems to be usable too. Did not pull much dependencies

pip install bleak

and simple discovery demo works :-)
Major improvement since I tried last time on windows!
