Mbed Client sample for GR-LYCHEE where ZXing is incorporated.

Dependencies:   DisplayApp AsciiFont

Fork of GR-PEACH_mbed-os-client-ZXingSample by Renesas

Overview

This sample program shows how to use mbed Client together with ZXing which is an open-source, multi-format 1D/2D barcode image processing library. For more info on ZXing, please refer to https://github.com/zxing/zxing.

Building the example

To build this example:

  1. Import this example onto mbed Compiler.
  2. Configure the example in accordance with Application setup.
  3. Compile the example on mbed Compiler and download the resultant binary file.
  4. Plug the micro-USB cable into the OpenSDA port which lies on the next to the RESET button.
  5. Copy the binary previously downloaded to your PC to GR-LYCHEE to flash this example. When the copy is successfully completed, the board is ready to work.
  6. Press the RESET button on the board to run the example.
  7. For verification, please refer to the following wiki:
    https://os.mbed.com/users/1050186/code/GR-LYCHEE_mbed-os-client-ZXingSample/wiki/Monitoring-the-application.

Application resources

This example exposes four resources listed below:

  1. 3202/0/5700. Decode result of barcode data input from camera (GET).
  2. 3201/0/5850. Blink function, blinks LED when executed (POST).
  3. 3201/0/5853. Blink pattern, used by the blink function to determine how to blink. In the format of 1000:500:1000:500:1000:500 (PUT).

+This example uses IPv4 to communicate with the [mbed Device Connector Server](https://api.connector.mbed.com) except for 6LoWPAN ND and Thread. 
+The example program should automatically get an IP address from the router when connected over Ethernet or WiFi.
 If your network does not have DHCP enabled, you have to manually assign a static IP address to the board. We recommend having DHCP enabled to make everything run smoothly.
 
 ### Changing socket type
 
-Your device can connect to mbed Device Connector via UDP or TCP binding mode. The default is UDP. The binding mode cannot be changed in 6LoWPAN ND or Thread mode.
+Your device can connect to mbed Device Connector via UDP or TCP binding mode. The default and only allowed value is UDP for Thread and 6LoWPAN. TCP is the default for other connections. The binding mode cannot be changed in 6LoWPAN ND or Thread mode.
 
 To change the binding mode:
 
-1. In the `simpleclient.h` file, find the parameter `SOCKET_MODE`. The default is `M2MInterface::UDP`.
-1. To switch to TCP, change it to `M2MInterface::TCP`.

+To build the example using mbed CLI:
 
-1. Clone [this](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os-example-client) repository.
 1. Open a command line tool and navigate to the project’s directory.
-1. Update mbed-os sources using the `mbed update` command.
-1. [Configure](#application-setup) the client application.
-1. Build the application by selecting the hardware board and build the toolchain using the command `mbed compile -m RZ_A1H -t GCC_ARM -c -j0`. mbed-cli builds a binary file under the project’s `.build` directory.
-1. Plug the Ethernet cable into the board if you are using Ethernet mode.
-1. If you are using 6LoWPAN ND or Thread mode, connect and power on the gateway first.
-1. Plug the micro-USB cable into the **OpenSDA** port. The board is listed as a mass-storage device.
-1. Drag the binary `.build/RZ_A1H/GCC_ARM/mbed-os-example-client.bin` to the board to flash the application.
-1. The board is automatically programmed with the new binary. A flashing LED on it indicates that it is still working. When the LED stops blinking, the board is ready to work.
-1. Press the **RESET** button on the board to run the program.
-1. For verification, continue to the [Monitoring the application](#monitoring-the-application) chapter.
