<h2 id="api-for-bletiny-app">API for bletiny app</h2>
<p>"bletiny" is one of the sample applications that come with Mynewt. It is a simple shell application which provides a basic interface to the host-side of the BLE stack. "bletiny" includes all the possible roles (Central/Peripheral) and they may be run simultaneously. You can run bletiny on a board and issue commands that make it behave as a central or a peripheral with different peers. </p>
<p>Highlighted below are some of the ways you can use the API to establish connections and discover services and characteristics from peer devices. For descriptions of the full API, go to the next sections on <a href="../bletiny/bletiny_GAP/">GAP in bletiny</a> and <a href="../bletiny/bletiny_GATT/">GATT in bletiny</a>.</p>
<p><br></p>
<h3 id="set-device-public-address">Set device public address.</h3>
<p>Currently the device public address is hardcoded to <code>0a:0b:0c:0d:0e:0f</code> in <code>bletiny</code> app but you can change it by going into its source code and initializing it to the desired value as described in the section on how to <a href="../ini_stack/ble_devadd/">initialize device addr</a>. </p>
<p><br></p>
<h3 id="initiate-a-direct-connection-to-a-device">Initiate a direct connection to a device</h3>
<p>In this case, your board is acting as a central and initiating a connection with another BLE device. The example assumes you know the address of the peer, either by scanning for available peers or because you have set up the peer yourself.</p>
<div class="codehilite" style="background: #ffffff"><pre style="line-height: 125%;"><span></span><code><span style="background-color: #ffffcc">b conn addr_type=public addr=d4:f5:13:53:d2:43

</code></pre></div>
<p>The <code>handle=1</code> in the output indicates that it is connection-1.</p>
<p><br></p>
<h3 id="configure-advertisements-to-include-device-name">Configure advertisements to include device name</h3>
<p>In this case, your board is acting as a peripheral. </p>
<div class="codehilite" style="background: #ffffff"><pre style="line-height: 125%;"><span></span><code>b set adv_data name=&lt;your-device-name&gt;

<p><br></p>
<h3 id="discover-and-display-peers-services">Discover and display peer's services.</h3>
<p>This is how you discover and then display the services of the peer you established earlier across connection-1.</p>
<div class="codehilite" style="background: #ffffff"><pre style="line-height: 125%;"><span></span><code><span style="background-color: #ffffcc">b disc svc conn=1

</code></pre></div>
<p><br></p>
<h3 id="discover-characteristics-for-each-service-on-peer">Discover characteristics for each service on peer</h3>
<p>The following examples show how to find the characteristics for each service available on the peer device across connection-1. The start and end values depend on the specific services discovered using the previous command <code>b show chr</code>. Continuing with the example above, you can discover the characteristics of the first service and display it using the following commands.</p>
