# Modules.BLE.Request

A request that uses the Attribute Protocol (ATT).

Availability
1.1.0

# Overview

The class represents Attribute Protocol (ATT) read and write requests from remote central devices (represented by Central objects). Remote centrals use these ATT requests to read and write characteristic values on local peripherals (represented by PeripheralManager objects). Local peripherals, on the other hand, use the properties of Request objects to respond to the read and write requests appropriately, using the respondToRequest() method of the PeripheralManager class.

# Properties

# apiName READONLY

Availability
3.2.0
3.2.0
apiName :String

The name of the API that this proxy corresponds to.

The value of this property is the fully qualified name of the API. For example, Titanium.UI.Button returns Ti.UI.Button.


# bubbleParent

Availability
3.0.0
3.0.0
bubbleParent :Boolean

Indicates if the proxy will bubble an event to its parent.

Some proxies (most commonly views) have a relationship to other proxies, often established by the add() method. For example, for a button added to a window, a click event on the button would bubble up to the window. Other common parents are table sections to their rows, table views to their sections, and scrollable views to their views. Set this property to false to disable the bubbling to the proxy's parent.

Default: true


# central READONLY

Availability

The central that originated the request.


# characteristic READONLY

1.0.0
characteristic :Modules.BLE.Characteristic

The characteristic whose value will be read or written.


# lifecycleContainer

Availability
3.6.0

The Window or TabGroup whose Activity lifecycle should be triggered on the proxy.

If this property is set to a Window or TabGroup, then the corresponding Activity lifecycle event callbacks will also be called on the proxy. Proxies that require the activity lifecycle will need this property set to the appropriate containing Window or TabGroup.


# offset READONLY

Availability

offset :Number

The zero-based index of the first byte for the read or write.


# responseNeeded READONLY

Availability
1.1.0
responseNeeded :Boolean

If the remote device requires a response.

If this property is true then user need to call respondToRequest method.


# value READONLY

Availability
1.1.0
1.0.0

The data being read or written.

# Methods

# addEventListener

Availability

addEventListener(name, callback) void

Adds the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.

Parameters

Name Type Description
name String

Name of the event.

callback Callback<Titanium.Event>

Callback function to invoke when the event is fired.

Returns

Type
void

# applyProperties

Availability

3.0.0
applyProperties(props) void

Applies the properties to the proxy.

Properties are supplied as a dictionary. Each key-value pair in the object is applied to the proxy such that myproxy[key] = value.

Parameters

Name Type Description
props Dictionary

A dictionary of properties to apply.

Returns

Type
void

# fireEvent

1.0.0
fireEvent(name[, event]) void

Fires a synthesized event to any registered listeners.

Parameters

Name Type Description
name String

Name of the event.

event Dictionary

A dictionary of keys and values to add to the Titanium.Event object sent to the listeners.

Returns

Type
void

# removeEventListener

Availability
1.1.0
1.0.0
removeEventListener(name, callback) void

Removes the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.

Multiple listeners can be registered for the same event, so the callback parameter is used to determine which listener to remove.

When adding a listener, you must save a reference to the callback function in order to remove the listener later:

var listener = function() { Ti.API.info("Event listener called."); }
window.addEventListener('click', listener);

To remove the listener, pass in a reference to the callback function:

window.removeEventListener('click', listener);

Parameters

Name Type Description
name String

Name of the event.

callback Callback<Titanium.Event>

Callback function to remove. Must be the same function passed to addEventListener.

Returns

Type
void

# updateValue
