Detailed Description

CoAP library optimized for minimal resource usage.

nanocoap provides a granular, low-level interface for writing CoAP messages via RIOT's sock networking API.

Server Operation

See the nanocoap_server example, which is built on the nanocoap_server() function. A server must define an array of coap_resource_t resources for which it responds. See the declarations of coap_resources and coap_resources_numof. The array contents must be ordered by the resource path, specifically the ASCII encoding of the path characters (digit and capital precede lower case). nanocoap provides the COAP_WELL_KNOWN_CORE_DEFAULT_HANDLER entry for /.well-known/core.

Handler functions

For each resource, you must implement a coap_handler_t handler function. nanocoap provides functions to help implement the handler. If the handler is called via nanocoap_server(), the response buffer provided to the handler reuses the buffer for the request. So, your handler must read the request thoroughly before writing the response.

To read the request, use the coap_get_xxx() functions to read the header and options. Use the coap_opt_get_xxx() functions to read an option generically by data type. If the pkt payload_len attribute is a positive value, start to read it at the payload pointer attribute.

If a response does not require specific CoAP options, use coap_reply_simple(). If there is a payload, it writes a Content-Format option with the provided value.

For a response with additional CoAP options, start by calling coap_build_reply(). Then choose either the minimal API or the struct-based API to write the rest of the response. See the instructions in the section Write Options and Payload below.

Client Operation

Choose either the minimal API or the struct-based API to write a request. Follow the instructions in the section Write Options and Payload below.

To send the message and await the response, see nanocoap_request() as well as nanocoap_get(), which additionally copies the response payload to a user supplied buffer. Finally, read the response as described above in the server Handler functions section for reading a request.

Write Options and Payload

For both server responses and client requests, CoAP uses an Option mechanism to encode message metadata that is not required for each message. For example, the resource URI path is required only for a request, and is encoded as the Uri-Path option.

nanocoap provides two APIs for writing CoAP options:

minimal API requires only a reference to the buffer for the message. However, the caller must provide the last option number written as well as the buffer position.
struct-based API uses a coap_pkt_t struct to conveniently track each option as it is written and prepare for any payload.

You must use one API exclusively for a given message. For either API, the caller must write options in order by option number (see "CoAP option numbers" in CoAP defines).

Minimal API

Before starting, ensure the CoAP header has been initialized with coap_build_hdr(). For a response, coap_build_reply() includes a call to coap_build_hdr(). Use the returned length to track the next position in the buffer to write and remaining length.

Next, use the coap_opt_put_xxx() and coap_put_xxx() functions to write each option. These functions require the position in the buffer to start writing, and return the number of bytes written.

If there is a payload, append a payload marker (0xFF). Then write the payload to within the maximum length remaining in the buffer.

Struct-based API

As with the minimal API, first ensure the CoAP header has been initialized with coap_build_hdr(). Then use coap_pkt_init() to initialize the coap_pkt_t struct.

Next, use the coap_opt_add_xxx() functions to write each option, like coap_opt_add_uint(). When all options have been added, call coap_opt_finish().

Finally, write any message payload at the coap_pkt_t payload pointer attribute. The payload_len attribute provides the available length in the buffer. The option functions keep these values current as they are used.

Create a Block-wise Response (Block2)

Block-wise is a CoAP extension (RFC 7959) to divide a large payload across multiple physical packets. This section describes how to write a block-wise payload for a response, and is known as Block2. (Block1 is for a block-wise payload in a request.) See _riot_board_handler() in the nanocoap_server example for an example handler implementation.

Start with coap_block2_init() to read the client request and initialize a coap_slicer_t struct with the size and location for this slice of the overall payload. Then write the block2 option in the response with coap_opt_put_block2(). The option includes an indicator ("more") that a slice completes the overall payload transfer. You may not know the value for more at this point, but you must initialize the space in the packet for the option before writing the payload. The option is rewritten later.

Next, use the coap_blockwise_put_xxx() functions to write the payload content. These functions use the coap_block_slicer_t to enable or disable actually writing the content, depending on the current position within the overall payload transfer.

Finally, use the convenience function coap_block2_build_reply(), which finalizes the packet and calls coap_block2_finish() internally to update the block2 option.

		const uint8_t *	c,
		size_t	len
	)

Add a byte array to a block2 reply.

This function is used to add an array of bytes to a CoAP block2 reply. it checks which parts of the string should be added to the reply and ignores parts that are outside the current block2 request.

Parameters

	)

Build reply to CoAP request.

This function can be used to create a reply to any CoAP request packet. It will create the reply packet header based on parameters from the request (e.g., id, token).

Passing a non-zero payload_len will ensure the payload fits into the buffer along with the header. For this validation, payload_len must include any options, the payload marker, as well as the payload proper.

Parameters

[in]	pkt	packet to reply to
[in]	code	reply code (e.g., COAP_CODE_204)
[out]	rbuf	buffer to write reply to

int coap_get_block1	(	coap_pkt_t *	pkt,
		coap_block1_t *	block1
	)

Block1 option getter.

This function gets a CoAP packet's block1 option and parses it into a helper structure.

If no block1 option is present in pkt, the values in block1 will be initialized with zero. That implies both block1->offset and block1->more are also valid in that case, as packet with offset==0 and more==0 means it contains all the payload for the corresponding request.

Parameters
