Creating BLE Server application with BlueZ

Hello Everyone,

I am new to working with BlueZ and I am trying to get a handle on how to create a BLE service and add characteristics. Looking around the web I can find quite a bit of information about using BlueZ as a BLE client for connecting to other BLE devices to read/write attributes, but I am struggling to find anything which helps explain creating a BLE service and dealing with advertising. Can anyone point me to a resource for learning to work with the BlueZ C api for creating/starting/stopping services, adding/modifying characteristics, starting/stopping/modifying advertisments? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Best,
