lightblue or other ways to discover bluetooth devices

[AndriusA]

Hello,

Does anyone know how to make lightblue work on pys60 1.9.x? Tried it on 1.9.4 and 1.9.6, three different phones (all nokia 6210 navigators) and without any success. It installs sucessfully, doesn't give any errors, is listed among installed applications, but when trying to import lightblue, doesn't find the module:

>>> import lightblue
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
File "c:\resource\python25\python25.zip\site.py", line 109, in platsec_import
raise ImportError("No module named " + name)
ImportError: No module named lightblue

Any suggestions/alternative packages? Thanks.

Hi,

You have to port it to get it to work with PyS60 1.9.x. General instructions are in src\PyS60_1_9_x_README.txt from pys60-1.9.6_src.zip that you can download from maemo garage.

Or you can use the bt_discover function from the btsocket module (details in the documentation).

Thanks.

Is it possible to use bt_discover without user interaction? Didn't find anything about that in the documentation..

I don't think so. The user has to pick the device from the list of devices found. At least that's how I think it works.
