Detailed Description

This module includes functions that control CoAP communication.

The functions in this module are available when CoAP API feature ( OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_COAP_API_ENABLE ) is enabled.

Typedef Documentation

◆ otCoapBlockwiseReceiveHook

typedef otError (* otCoapBlockwiseReceiveHook) (void *aContext, const uint8_t *aBlock, uint32_t aPosition, uint16_t aBlockLength, bool aMore, uint32_t aTotalLength)

This function pointer is called when a CoAP message with an block-wise transfer option is received.

This function is available when OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_COAP_BLOCKWISE_TRANSFER_ENABLE configuration is enabled.

Parameters

[in]	`aContext`	A pointer to application-specific context.
[in]	`aBlock`	A pointer to the block segment.
[in]	`aPosition`	The position of `aBlock` in a sequence in bytes.
[in]	`aBlockLength`	The length of the block segment in bytes.
[in]	`aMore`	Flag if more block segments are following.
[in]	`aTotalLength`	The total length in bytes of the transfered information (indicated by a Size1 or Size2 option).

Return values

`OT_ERROR_NONE`	Block segment was stored successfully.
`OT_ERROR_NO_BUFS`	No more memory to store blocks.
`OT_ERROR_NO_FRAME_RECEIVED`	Block segment missing.

◆ otCoapBlockwiseTransmitHook

typedef otError (* otCoapBlockwiseTransmitHook) (void *aContext, uint8_t *aBlock, uint32_t aPosition, uint16_t *aBlockLength, bool *aMore)

This function pointer is called before the next block in a block-wise transfer is sent.

This function is available when OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_COAP_BLOCKWISE_TRANSFER_ENABLE configuration is enabled.

Parameters

[in]	`aContext`	A pointer to application-specific context.
[in,out]	`aBlock`	A pointer to where the block segment can be written to.
[in]	`aPosition`	The position in a sequence from which to obtain the block segment.
[in,out]	`aBlockLength`	On entry, the maximum block segment length in bytes.
[out]	`aMore`	A pointer to the flag if more block segments will follow.

Warning: By changing the value of aBlockLength, the block size of the whole exchange is renegotiated. It is recommended to do this after the first block has been received as later changes could cause problems with other CoAP implementations.

Return values

`OT_ERROR_NONE`	No error occurred.
`OT_ERROR_INVALID_ARGS`	Block at `aPosition` does not exist.

◆ otCoapOptionContentFormat

typedef enum otCoapOptionContentFormat otCoapOptionContentFormat

CoAP Content Format codes.

The full list is documented at https://www.iana.org/assignments/core-parameters/core-parameters.xhtml#content-formats

◆ otCoapOptionIterator

typedef struct otCoapOptionIterator otCoapOptionIterator

This structure acts as an iterator for CoAP options.

◆ otCoapRequestHandler

typedef void(* otCoapRequestHandler) (void *aContext, otMessage *aMessage, const otMessageInfo *aMessageInfo)

This function pointer is called when a CoAP request with a given Uri-Path is received.

Parameters

[in]	`aContext`	A pointer to arbitrary context information.
[in]	`aMessage`	A pointer to the message.
[in]	`aMessageInfo`	A pointer to the message info for `aMessage` .

◆ otCoapResponseHandler

typedef void(* otCoapResponseHandler) (void *aContext, otMessage *aMessage, const otMessageInfo *aMessageInfo, otError aResult)

This function pointer is called when a CoAP response is received or on the request timeout.

Parameters

[in]	`aContext`	A pointer to application-specific context.
[in]	`aMessage`	A pointer to the message buffer containing the response. NULL if no response was received.
[in]	`aMessageInfo`	A pointer to the message info for `aMessage` . NULL if no response was received.
[in]	`aResult`	A result of the CoAP transaction.

Return values

`OT_ERROR_NONE`	A response was received successfully.
`OT_ERROR_ABORT`	A CoAP transaction was reset by peer.
`OT_ERROR_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT`	No response or acknowledgment received during timeout period.

◆ otCoapTxParameters

This structure represents the CoAP transmission parameters.

Note: mAckTimeout * ((2 ** (mMaxRetransmit + 1)) - 1) * (mAckRandomFactorNumerator / mAckRandomFactorDenominator) must not exceed what can be represented by a uint32_t (0xffffffff). This limitation allows OpenThread to avoid 64-bit arithmetic.
