Class WearableNode

java.lang.Object
com.codename1.wearable.WearableNode

public class WearableNode extends Object

A device on the other end of the link: the watch as seen from the phone, or the phone as seen from the watch.

Apple pairs a phone with exactly one watch at a time, so there is at most one node there. Wear OS allows several watches paired to one phone, so a phone app can see more than one -- send to all of them unless you have a reason to pick.

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    Returns the device name a person would recognize, suitable for showing in a UI.
    Returns the platform's opaque identifier for this device, stable for as long as the pairing lasts.
    boolean

    • WearableNode

      public WearableNode(String id, String displayName, boolean nearby)

      Creates a node description. Called by the platform ports; application code obtains nodes from WearableConnection.getConnectedNodes().

      Parameters
      • id: the platform's opaque identifier for the device
      • displayName: the device name a person would recognize
      • nearby: true when the device is directly connected rather than reachable over the cloud
  • Method Details

    • getId

      public String getId()

      Returns the platform's opaque identifier for this device, stable for as long as the pairing lasts.

      Returns

      the node id

    • getDisplayName

      public String getDisplayName()

      Returns the device name a person would recognize, suitable for showing in a UI.

      Returns

      the display name

    • isNearby

      public boolean isNearby()

      Returns true when the device is directly connected (Bluetooth or the same network) rather than merely reachable through the cloud. Only a nearby node can receive a live message; replicated data reaches both.

      Returns

      true if the node is directly connected

    • toString

      public String toString()
      Description copied from class: Object
      Returns a string representation of the object. In general, the toString method returns a string that "textually represents" this object. The result should be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a person to read. It is recommended that all subclasses override this method. The toString method for class Object returns a string consisting of the name of the class of which the object is an instance, the at-sign character `@', and the unsigned hexadecimal representation of the hash code of the object. In other words, this method returns a string equal to the value of: getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())
