BT-Sync between miniBLE's

Open Jan-NiklasB opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Missing feature

BT-Sync between devices

Justification

It would make the sync between multiple minible's musch easier if one could sync them OTA via BT.

Idea of how it could work:

  1. Insert card into one device (not connected to moolticute) (Dev1)
  2. Set Dev1 to BT-Sync mode
  3. Connect 2nd Device to moolticute (Dev2)
  4. Enter BT-Sync mode via moolticute without need of inserting card
  5. Pair the devices in this mode
  6. Start sync on Dev1 (receiving a sync code via display)
  7. Enter sync code on Dev2
  8. Devices sync the profile of the given card via BT

Workarounds

Exporting Profile of Dev1, import it on Dev2 merging them, then export Profile on Dev2 and import it on Dev1 merging them

If you had your backup card in the other device AND the DB was sent over the air encrypted this could be done securely (as secure as anything is with BT).

Doing this without a card in one device or the other would be very insecure. Having cards in each device (that is all cards used are for the same database, they are just duplicates) would allow for the encrypted data to be sent as the same key is used.
