Interesting Library But... (discussion about extending library functionality)

No access to ScanSettings to allow any control over the scan rate and power usage, so unfortunately your library isn't useful to apps that require a level of control.

I take that back, I'll be attempting to write a custom Strategy and see where it ends up. Again, thanks for the efforts.

Hello,

This library is pretty simple and that was my intention from the beginning. It's just allows you to scan BLE beacons around, read their basic details and check how far from the mobile device are they. Nothing more. It some use cases it's enough. Starting from version 0.5.0 you can implement your own ScanStrategy as you wrote, which potentially allows you to do some additional operations and extend functionality of the library. If you create some generic solution or improvements, which can be added to the library, Pull Requests are welcome.

Regards, Piotr

If you have some references like articles, documentation and code snippets regarding features mentioned by you, feel free to leave links to them in this issue and we can figure out some solution. I'm still learning about BLE and all valuable information will be useful for me. :)
