Hi! Looks like the Bluetooth-library this plugin is using does not yet support MacOS Mojave. See noble/noble#804.

I'll follow the issue in noble and release an update if needed as soon as Mojave support is available.

Thanks @hannseman for building this. I'm also using Mojave so will wait for the update once support is available. Cheers!

Any update on macOS Mojave?

[hannseman]

@lay55 there was some effort on the noble-repository to create a maintained fork which brings support for Node 10 as that too currently is broken, see @abandonware/noble. There's another fork called noble-mac which brings support for macOS but it does not support Node 10 on other systems.

End-Of-Life for Node 6 is in April 2019 and Node 8 in December 2019. So if we switch to using noble-mac we would only be supporting abandoned Node versions by the end of this year. See https://github.com/nodejs/Release

I've opened an issue in that repository about bringing in macOS Mojave support: abandonware/noble#4. Unfortunately I haven't gotten any response yet.

One way to approach this could be to add each of the forks as optionalDependencies but that would make importing noble in the code hard. Another is to distribute two versions of this package, one which uses noble-mac and one which uses @abandonware/noble. Neither of these are preferable.

[hannseman]

I've also opened an issue on noble-mac to check if they are interested in depending on the @abandonware-fork. Timeular/noble-mac#23

This would enable us to get support for both Mojave and Node 10 on linux.

An update on what's going on:

There's an open PR on @abandonware/noble. Looks like the author wants a vote for adding MacOS-support so please go in and add a :)

abandonware/noble#8

[hannseman]

If you still are interested in running this on MacOS Mojave I can inform you that abandonware/noble#8 have been merged. I'll try update to this new version ASAP.

[BillS11]

Yes please!!! :)

I just released version 2.2.0 which brings support for MacOS Mojave. Please give it a try and tell me if it works so we can finally close this issue :-)

[BillS11]

Just installed and confirmed working. Christmas has come very early!
Thank you so much!!!

[hannseman]

@BillS11 great to hear that! Thanks for the patience. 😄
