About

This application provides command line access to nanocoap, an API for CoAP messaging. See the CoAP spec for background.

We support two setup options for this example:

Native networking

Build with the standard Makefile. Follow the setup instructions for the gnrc_networking example.

SLIP-based border router

Build with Makefile.slip. Follow the setup instructions in README-slip.md, which are based on the SLIP instructions for the gnrc_border_router example. We also plan to provide or reference the ethos/UHCP instructions, but we don't have it working yet.

Example Use

Start a libcoap example server with the command below.

./coap-server

Enter the query below in the RIOT CLI.

> coap get fe80::d8b8:65ff:feee:121b%6 5683 /.well-known/core

CLI output:
