RadioLib allows its users to integrate all sorts of different wireless communication modules into a single consistent system. Want to add a Bluetooth interface to your ZigBee network? Sure thing! Need to connect LoRa network to the Internet with a GSM module? RadioLib has got your back!
RadioLib was originally created as a driver for RadioShield, but it can be used to control as many different wireless modules as you like - or at least as many as your Arduino can handle!
The list above is by no means exhaustive. Most of RadioLib code is independent of the used platform, so as long as your board is running some Arduino-compatible core, RadioLib should work. Compilation of all examples is tested for all platoforms in bold on each git push. Platforms in italic are not tested on each push, but do compile and should be working.
First of all, take a look at the examples and the Wiki - especially the Basics page. There's a lot of useful information over there. Also, you should check out RadioShield - open source Arduino shield that will allow you to easily connect any two wireless modules supported by RadioLib!
The fastest way to get help is by creating an issue using the appropriate template. It is also highly recommended to try running the examples first - their functionality is tested from time to time and they should work. Finally, RadioLib is still under development, which means that sometimes, backwards-incompatible changes might be introduced. Though these are kept at minimum, sometimes it is unavoidable. You can check the release changelog to find out if there's been such a major change recently.
Start by creating new issue (if it doesn't exist yet). If you have some experience with Arduino and C/C++ in general, you can try to add the support yourself! Use the template files in /extras/
folder to get started. This is by far the fastest way to implement new modules into RadioLib, since I can't be working on everything all the time. If you don't trust your programming skills enough to have a go at it yourself, don't worry. I will try to implement all requested modules, but it will take me a while.
