AngularGrainfatherControl

This library was generated with Angular CLI version 9.1.3.

It can be used to control the GrainFather controller via BLE from within a browser. The BLE specification is taken from https://github.com/kingpulsar/Grainfather-Bluetooth-Protocol.

It depends on the https://www.npmjs.com/package/@types/web-bluetooth package for type definitions.

The main module exposes an API to connect/reconnect/disconnect from the controller. It also has a send method, which takes a Command from the commands files.

All commands are available as a class, with the Recipe command being the most complex one. RecipeDetails contain the minimal information that is needed to create a recipe. All other values are assumed to have defaults for now.

export type MashStep = {
  name: string;
  stepTime: number;
  stepTemperature: number;
};

export type BoilStep = {
  name: string;
  time: number;
  sent: boolean;
};

export class RecipeDetails {
  name: string;
  mashWaterAmount: number;
  spargeWaterAmount: number;
  boilTime: number;
  hopStandTime: number;
  mashSteps: MashStep[];
  boilSteps: BoilStep[];
}

Notifications are processed by the notifications handler. This handler updates and broadcasts the state as well. It uses the state to decrease the required interaction with the controller as much as possible.

Currently the following interactions are needed:

• Start session after sending recipe without delay
• Add grain alarm
• Sparge alarm
• Start boil timer
• Start hopstand timer
• Finish session

It also sends notifications with:

• Current step, see SessionState
• Time left for step, for delay, mash and boil
• If a boil addition needs to be added, this will only be one event for each addition

Installation and usage

Install as any other NPM module.

npm install angular-grainfather-control

Add it to the angular module in which it will be used.

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    GrainfatherControlModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
