Hello all, I'm new to the eLua group. I was curious to see if anyone has been working with Zigbee and eLua. I see a mention of eLuaBee on the projects page, but no information. This will be my first eLua module. If someone has something that might make for a good starting point, I'm game for considering that. Otherwise, I might try to keep the design similar to the Net module. For now, I'm planning to use the STM32 and a Digi XBee radio.
We've been using XBee modules for sometime now, with good results and using the regular uart module to talk to them.
It would be nice to have a more specialized/high level module to threat them though and this is the reason why someone started the entry on the Wiki (I guess).
I don't know if there are other Zigbee or XBee modules out there with SPI, I2C or even CAN interfaces. Our experience (@Led Lab, PUC-Rio) is only with the serial versions.
This seems to be something that could even be implemented in Lua, if the space requirements for the final uses are not too tight.
Ives Negreiros, Teo Benjamin and maybe some other collaborators can possibly add something to this.

I've not done work with ZigBee modules in eLua, but in other applications. Even with the serial attached models, there are two versions of firmware that implement either an in-band control method using "AT" modem commands or alternatively an "API" mode where frames are sent to the module with explicit addresses and other control information that make it easier to communicate with multiple ZigBee peer devices. Just FYI.
