Implement bluetooth keyboard functionality similar to USB keyboard

[tejado]

Hi,
yes, basically this is already on the roadmap. Sadly, it is not so easy as Android is not anymore using BlueZ as the bluetooth stack but Bluedroid. So I looked at some projects like https://github.com/kshoji/BLE-HID-Peripheral-for-Android but I couldn't get them to work.

So my current task in regard to Authorizer is to integrate OTP (merging FreeOTP into Authorizer). After this, maybe I will then look again further into the Bluetooth topic.

Of course, any help to Authorizer is highly appreciated :)

For your information:
Bluetooth is possible and will be implemented in one of the next releases. But this could take a while. If someone is interessted to help to integrate this, I can provide further technical details for it.

I implemented the Bluetooth functionality now over the BluetoothHid API which is available since Android Pie (28). Please see commit 3db0a87

Please notice, that this is not yet released in the stores.

Just to know how it is implemented or do you want to help to integrate this?

searching for example Bluetooth USB adapter dongle with HID proxy mode support, i came across a few relevant items of interest, maybe you've already seen them?

https://code.google.com/archive/p/androhid (abandoned 2010) on using root to add BT profile to mobile directly, no extra hardware adapter needed.

https://github.com/PhilippC/keepass2android has support for hardware adapter based...

https://github.com/inputstick via plugins and BT or BTLE to USB HID proxy adapter.

see news updates at http://blog.inputstick.com looks like they've updated ios related code so android next.

hope that helps open source powers combine.

我现在通过 BluetoothHid API 实现了蓝牙功能，该 API 从 Android Pie (28) 开始可用。请参阅提交3db0a87

请注意，这尚未在商店中发布。
