This SDK provides spot functionalities for desktop (electron) apps. Currently it only supports detecting Spot beacons.

1. Instantiate the SDK with (optional) configuration object.

const { beaconDetectorResolver } =  require('spot-electron-sdk');

beaconDetectorResolver.then(({ default: BeaconDetector }) => {
    const detector = new BeaconDetector({
        beaconUUID: string,
        beaconDismissTimeoutSeconds: number,
        reportIntervalMillisecs: number
    });
});

2. Subscribe to events

detector.on('scanStart', () => {
    console.log('Beacon scanning started.');
});
detector.on('scanStartError', (error) => {
    console.log('Failed to start beacon scanning.', error);
});
detector.on('scanStop', () => {
    console.log('Beacon scanning stopped.');
});
detector.on('beacons', beacons  => {
    console.log('Beacons', beacons);
});
detector.on('bestBeacon', beacon  => {
    console.log('Best beacon', beacon);
});

3. Start detection

detector.start();

4. Stop detection

detector.stop();

beaconUUID: (Optional) The Beacon UUID to look for. Omit this to detect Jitsi beacons, but custom deployments should have their own ID.

beaconDismissTimeoutSeconds: (Optional) The timeout in seconds that the SDK waits before dismissing (not reporting anymore) a beacon that it stopped detecting. Min: 5s.

reportIntervalMillisecs: (Optional) The timeout in milliseconds the SDK reports newly detected devices (if any). Min: 2000ms.

scanStart: Scanning started.

scanStartError: The SDK failed to start the scanning. An error object is passed to the callback.

scanStop: Scanning stopped.

beacons: New list of beacons are available. An array of Beacon object is passed to the callback.

bestBeacon: A new best (closest, most reliable... etc) beacon is available. A Beacon object is passed to the callback.
