I'd like to use your AsyncBluetooth with Swift Playgrounds 4 on iPad, but I cannot do that. It doesn't seem to be able to import any Swift Package released by tags with alphabetic characters, like v1.1.0, as follows:

I was able to import my cloned repository re-tagged with 1.1.0 as follows:

If there is no particular reason, could you use only numbers for tagging?

CoreBluetooth devices such as the iPhone or the iPad can only be connected to a certain amount of devices at the same time – I think the limitation is in the range of about 5-12.

If you continue to try connecting to more devices, unfortunate things can happen, i.e. the bluetooth daemon reset, timeouts, etc.

I wonder whether AsyncBluetooth could do anything to help circumventing this by allowing to specify a threshold number. Any more connection request would then either fail or halt until the number of connected devices has decreased again.

A concrete example… in my app I can't filter to scan for a specific service, since it's not standardized. Hence, I need to connect to each and every available device, do some tests and then decide whether the device is eligible for displaying or not. In theory this could mean tens or hundreds of connection attempts in parallel, which is a recipe for desaster.

Would it be possible to add support for centralManager(_:willRestoreState:) ?

Currently there is no way to support state restoring because this is not available on the interface. This could work as a publisher.

I am not quite sure about this but I think the original code could miss a first state change the way it was. It is quite possible that staring CBCentral is slow enough for this to never happen, though. Please explain to me why my change is unnecessary, if that is the case.

I have successfully paired and connected to a given peripheral. After the device has been streaming data for a while, the user disconnected (or turned off) the device. How can my app get notified of events like these?.

Presumably, we need to forward the

func centralManager(
        _ central: CBCentralManager,  
           didDisconnectPeripheral peripheral: CBPeripheral, 
           error: Error?
          )

method from the Central Manager's delegate to a new "app delegate" we need to implement?

It seems that the following lines are not called even if you set any notify on: https://github.com/manolofdez/AsyncBluetooth/blob/bc3e0bee46aac0fb20127872cdba9419e0402d02/Sources/Peripheral/Peripheral.swift#L298-L300

I'm not sure if my fix fits your design, but it works fine. I hope this PR is helpful.

Now async/await APIs can be used even in iOS 13 and macOS Catalina with Xcode 13.2. AsyncBluetooth uses Logger and it can be used in iOS 14.0+/macOS 11.0+, so, I set these versions.

Getting lots of "[peripheral] Received UpdateValue result for characteristic without a continuation" prints in console. This seems to slow down reads and writes, but eventually everything is working ok. The amount of prints seems to increase when disconnecting and connecting again to a device.

Has this something to do with queueing of commands? Is there are way to flush the queue?

Hi there! I am really loving using this package for my BLE projects; however I have run into several cases where I would like to manually generate a Characteristic struct in my app code, but the init is internal since it is not marked public in the code.

I have so far hacked around this by cloning the repo and importing the code and manually modifying the code, but I would really like and appreciate if this was marked public in the package itself.

I am curious if there is a reason it is not marked public?

Thanks again for this amazing package!

As far as I can tell, there are no examples for reading from and writing to a peripheral, and no documentation whatsoever for the writeValue method. I'm having trouble receiving data from my peripheral but I'm not sure if I'm even using the readValue method correctly.
