how to monitor regions for beacons using only UUID (kontakt beacons) for android:

Question

i am using Kontakt beacons for android.here is the link for SDK i am using. There is only a single constructor for region accepting all the params namely minor, major , uuid and region identifier. I want to monitor a region based on only UUID and the start monitoring method from example here accepts only region as parameter and parameter set. Please guide me how to proceed.

Answer 1

I don't think this is possible with Kontakt SDK. What you can do is range beacons on all UUIDs, then filter it according to what you want on the RangingListener. This is how you range all beacons:

    beaconManager.startRanging(Region.EVERYWHERE);

Answer 2

You can use the constructor in that way from the documentation:

Collection<IBeaconRegion> beaconRegions = new ArrayList<>();

IBeaconRegion region = new BeaconRegion.Builder()
    .identifier("My second Region")
    .proximity(UUID.fromString("6565d504-e306-4119-8266-0f8d4401cd0a"))
    .major(BeaconRegion.ANY_MAJOR) //any major, default value
    .minor(BeaconRegion.ANY_MINOR) //any minor, default value
    .build();

beaconRegions.add(region);

proximityManager.spaces().iBeaconRegions(beaconRegions);
