see https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/bluetooth/bluez.git/tree/doc/mgmt-api.txt for details:
- Raspberry Pi 3B+
- Raspberry Pi 4
Built with Python 3.7, Python 2 is untested.
- libbluetooth-dev : the headers and source code for this extension are entirely contained within this repo, but the python module is dynamically linked against lbluetooth.so on the Linux machine.
- libreadline-dev : the lreadline.so shared library is usually installed by default, but C header files are required to build this module from source.
$ sudo apt-get install libbluetooth-dev libreadline-dev
$ sudo pip3 install git+https://github.com/BOJIT/bluez_mgmt.git
# most of the BTMGMT commands require root privileges, so the library should be
# installed to the root python environment.
# Demonstrative only: see example scripts for more information
import bluez_mgmt
bluez_mgmt.command("command", "parameter1", "parameter2")
# Variable number of arguments: arguments should be formatted as strings
