Bluetooth?

Open dhanar10 opened this issue 7 years ago • 5 comments

It would be nice if we can connect to bluetooth devices and send command via RFCOMM to the connected device. This makes it possible to connect to custom arduino hardware with bluetooth module. The possibility is endless! :D

I am willing to fund development of this feature if anyone is interested. Thanks

it's been 7 years this hasn't implemented yet

possibly because you haven't provided any patches for that 🙂

@MrRare2 Don't rely on chance that everything would be implemented by maintainers. Project grows faster than its development team which means one kind of work will be prioritized over other. Another issue which cause feature request to be stale is that maintainers simply have no idea how it should be done.

We are lacking skilled maintainers for application (java/kotlin) parts of Termux project. Most of the currently active team working on packages only.

If community would be really interested in implementing a feature, someone definitely will submit at least its draft implementation.

Isn't there a draft implementation here? https://github.com/StevenSalazarM/Termux-api-bluetooth

Maybe we could do a fundraiser bounty for this feature? Would be super useful to connect to bluetooth devices through termux. Right now I have to create mini kivy apps.
