Prepare for Integration with Matter Device

Due to the characteristics of a Matter device, all its capabilities are implemented based on Matter fabrics. Before a Matter device can be paired, controlled, or managed, you must make API requests to configure basic information about the Matter device. This configuration must be finished before any Matter services are implemented.

Requirements

• Prerequisites

  Before you start, the steps in Fast Integration with Cube App SDK must be finished.

• Scope of application

  All Matter devices are supported.

• Requirements for devices

  • OS: Android M (6.0, API level 23 or later).
  • Required permissions: Bluetooth, location, and Wi-Fi.
  If you require UI BizBundles, the version of Cube App SDK must be the same as that of the UI BizBundles to ensure stable pairing and control of devices.

Prepare information about fabric

Information about Matter is bound with homes. Therefore, at the end of the operation of switching between homes or initially loading a home, call - initFabric to get information about the fabric that is bound with the home.

API description

void initFabric( Context context, long gid, IThingDataCallback<OpenFabricInfo> callback);

Parameters

Example

IThingMatterFabricManager fabricManager = ThingHomeSdk.getFabricManager();
fabricManager.initFabric(getContext(), spaceId, new IThingDataCallback<OpenFabricInfo>() {
     @Override
     public void onSuccess(OpenFabricInfo result) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onError(String errorCode, String errorMessage) {

    }
});

Prepare information about devices

Different from other types of devices, certain information about Matter devices must be prepared in advance. For this purpose, at the end of loading the list of devices in a home and fabric information, call getDevicesFabricNodes to handle Matter devices for the specified home.

API description

void getDevicesFabricNodes(Set<String> devIds, IThingDataCallback<ArrayList<DeviceNodeBean>> listener);

Parameters

Example

List<DeviceBean> deviceList = homeBean.getDeviceList();
Set<String> devIds = new HashSet<>();
devIds.add(deviceBean.getDevId());
fabricManager.getDevicesFabricNodes(devIds, new IThingDataCallback<ArrayList<DeviceNodeBean>>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(ArrayList<DeviceNodeBean> result) {

}

@Override
public void onError(String errorCode, String errorMessage) {

}
});
