BluetoothAdapter.sendFile()

This API is available on Firefox OS for internal applications only.

Summary

The sendFile method is used to start sending a file to a given remote device.

Note: Only one file can be sent at a time.

Syntax

JavaScript
var request = instanceOfBluetoothAdapter.sendFile(deviceAddress, file);

Parameters

deviceAddress
The Bluetooth micro-network address of the device to send a file to.
file
A Blob object representing the file to send.

Returns
