If using BLE, don't forget to pair your device first (using `bluetoothctl` for instance on Linux) or meshcli won't be able to communicate. There is a device selector for BLE, you'll just have to use `meshcli -S` to select your device, subsequent calls to meshcli will be send to that device.

### Examples
|
||||
### Interactive Mode
|
||||
|
||||
aka Instant Message or chat mode ...
|
||||
|
||||
Chat mode lets you interactively interact with your node or remote nodes. It is automatically triggered when no option is given on the command line.
|
||||
|
||||
You'll get a prompt with the name of your node. From here you can type meshcore-cli commands. The prompt has history and a basic completion (pressing tab will display possible command or argument options).
|
||||
|
||||
The `to` command is specific to chat mode, it lets you enter the recipient for next command. By default you're on your node but you can enter other nodes or public rooms. Here are some examples :
|
||||
* `to <nodename>` : will enter nodename
|
||||
* `to /`, `to ~` : will go to the root (your node)
|
||||
* `to ..` : will go to the last node (it will switch between the two last nodes, this is just a 1-depth history)
|
||||
* `to !` : will switch to the node you received last message from
|
||||
|
||||
When you are connected to a node, the behaviour will depend on the node type, if you're on a chat node, it will send messages by default and you can chat. On a repeater or a room server, it will send commands (autocompletioin has been set to comply with the CommonCli class of meshcore). To send a message through a room you'll have to prefix the message with a quote or use the send command.
|
||||
|
||||
You can alse set a channel as recipient, `to public` will switch to the public channel, and `to ch1` to channel 1.
