Cross-platform version?

Open hjstn opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

This project is amazing, but being only available on OSX is a bummer, as usbmuxd is functional on Linux as well. Could you guys consider creating a cross-platform version in Python or Node.js? Thanks!

Thanks your comment!

It's definitely on the list. A port for linux should be a no brainer using BSD sockets. I am not quite sure if a pure Python or Node.js version is feasible, though. Need to look into that.

Which parts of this are specific to macOS? I'd love to help out with porting this to linux...

Appium is working on a nodejs implementation/port of libimobiledevice that could potentially help accomplish what @hjstn is asking. You can find it here. Not sure what are the performance implications but I'd say it is something to explore.
