AT Commands Server
- Warning
- Some AT commands may conflict with Legato APIs; using both may cause problems that can be difficult to diagnose. AT commands should be avoided whenever possible, and should only be used with great care.
The AT Commands Server handles AT commands' subscriptions on a requested serial device. The server is compliant with 3GPP 27.007, paragraph 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2.
Device Binding
le_atServer_Start() must be called to bind a specific device with the AT commands server. Multiple devices can be bound. A device can be unbound using le_atServer_Stop().
Subscription
A new AT command can be added into the parser using le_atServer_Create(), and it can be deleted using le_atServer_Delete(). An AT command can be available only on one dedicated device, or on all bound AT devices, using le_atServer_SetDevice().
Handler
To handle the AT command, the app has to subscribe a handler using le_atServer_AddCommandHandler(). It can be removed with le_atServer_RemoveCommandHandler(). The called handler (le_atServer_CommandHandlerRef_t prototype) can use le_atServer_GetCommandName() to retrieve the received AT command string. It can also call le_atServer_GetParameter() to retrieve a parameter of the AT command thanks to its index.
Responses
The app has can send intermediate responses through le_atServer_SendIntermediateResponse(). In all cases, the app must send a final response using le_atServer_SendFinalResponse(). The AT device will be locked until the final response is sent. If no answer is sent, the AT device will not accept any new AT commands (an error will be returned).
The app can also send unsolicited responses to warn a host app using le_atServer_SendUnsolicitedResponse(). This response is sent when no AT command is being processing on the device (i.e. unsolicited response is sent between the latest final response and the next reception of an AT command). If an unsolicited response is sent when an AT command is in progress, the unsolicited response is buffered and sent as soon as the AT device becomes available (i.e., the processing AT command sends its final response).
