Simulates a Nuki.io Smart Lock (runs on Raspberry PI on node.js - needs bluetooth dongle on Raspberry PI < 3) The official nuki app can pair with it and some actions can be performed like lock, unlock.
Note that this code is preliminary and my cause unexpected results.
Tested successfully on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B running Raspberry Pi OS 2020-05-27 and Node.js 12.8.1. The Bluetooth adapters in Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ and Raspberry Pi 4 Model B are not working reliably with the Nuki Fob and at least some Android devices.

sudo apt-get install libbluetooth-dev libudev-devRun the following command:
sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f `which node`)This grants the node binary cap_net_raw privileges, so it can start/stop BLE advertising.
Note: The above command requires setcap to be installed, it can be installed using the following:
- apt:
sudo apt-get install libcap2-bin
(see https://github.com/abandonware/bleno#running-on-linux)
In the cloned repository run:
npm installnpm run buildThe system bluetooth daemon must be stopped first, because simnuki needs full control over the bluetooth adapter.
sudo systemctl stop bluetooth.service
sudo hciconfig hci0 up
To run the simulator, call node with main.js. It advertises a nuki smart lock via Bluetooth and the Nuki app (tried with iOS) can pair and do lock and unlock operations. Note, that not all of the Nuki API is implemented.
There is also the counterpart for it: a library to build a client: https://github.com/as19git67/nukible. In the samples directory there is main.js, which can be used on a second Raspberry PI to simulate the Nuki app.
