This documentation details the usage of the ARTIK C/C++ API developed by Samsung to speed-up application development on ARTIK hardware modules.

This API has been developed in an object-oriented fashion, in order to provide consistency across the different languages and bindings supported.

The following languages are supported:

• C
• C++
• node.js

The API is available and has been tested for the following hardware platforms:

• ARTIK 520 Development platform
• ARTIK 530 Development platform
• ARTIK 710 Development platform
• ARTIK 05x Development Platforms
• ARTIK 305 Development platform

The API is organized by modules that each contain a set of features. A "module manager" allows applications to get a instance of a module, configure it, then call APIs exposed by the module.

The modules that are currently available are:

• GPIO: module for operating on hardware digital input/output pins
• I2C: module for communicating with onboard chips over I2C bus
• Serial: module for communicating with external hardware over UART
• PWM: module for generating pulse width modulated signals
• HTTP: module for sending requests to HTTP/HTTPS servers
• Cloud: module for calling the ARTIK cloud APIs
• ADC: module for reading Analog inputs
• Wi-Fi: module for managing wireless networks
• Media: module for managing audio/video streams
• Security: module for handling security features
• Bluetooth: module for scanning and communicating with BT devices
• Sensors: module for reading information from sensors
• ZigBee: module for communicating with remote ZigBee devices
• LWM2M: module for communicating with a remote LWM2M server as a client
• MQTT: module for connecting to a MQTT broker as a client
