The CHIP reference implementation contains support for a number examples and platforms.
| Controller / Admin | Node | Description |
|---|---|---|
| chip-tool (Linux / Mac) Includes docs for all the cluster commands supported | all-clusters-app M5Stack (ESP)Linux simulation | Use the command line tool on a laptop to pair with and control an embedded WiFi platform. This demo supports the “all-clusters-app”, so it provides the basic onoff light test and more. Two incremental modes of operation are supported for testing (configurable via Kconfig tool when building M5): Unsecured (WiFi only) BLE Rendezvous Mode Bypass = 1 PASE secured (BLE pairing, WiFi operational) |
| chip-device-ctrl.py | all-clusters-app M5Stack (ESP) Linux simulation | Same as above, but uses the pychip tool as Controller Node, and focuses on BLE flow rather than Bypass. |
Use one of the controllers listed above and then a Border Router and Node combination listed below.
| Border Router | Node | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ot-br Thread Border Router RasPi BeagleBone | lighting-app Nordic nRF5x NXP K32W Qorvo QPG6100 Silicon Labs EFR32 | The Lighting example is supported by many of the available Thread platforms. See the chip-tool controller instructions for how to actuate the light on/off cluster. |
| ot-br Thread Border Router RasPi BeagleBone | lock-app Nordic nRF5x NXP K32W Qorvo QPG6100 Silicon Labs EFR32 TI CC13x2x7 | The Lock example is supported by many of the available Thread and WiFi platforms. |
This section summarizes how to run some common scenarios with the chip-tool controller.
chip-tool pairing onnetwork 20202021 will use PASE over IP to pair a device.
NOTE: On Linux, if the device is actually running after unit tests ran you have to use chip-tool pairing onnetwork 34567890, because the unit tests change the device configuration.
NOTE: to run both the Node and Controller as separate processes on the same Linux or Mac machine, build the all-clusters-app with BLE disabled as follows:
scripts/examples/gn_build_example.sh examples/all-clusters-app/linux out/debug/standalone/ chip_config_network_layer_ble=false
chip-tool tests Test_TC_OO_1_1 will run a suite of tests that use CASE To communicate with a paired all-clusters-app peer node.
