NodeJS iDevice browser

SUMMARY

NPM for easily discovering iOS-devices (iOS6 and iOS7) connected to your local network. Emits an event every time it discovers a device. But also keeps track of which devices that been connected so you can getDevice(dateSinceLastSeen).

INSTALLING

Before installing on Debian systems. You need to apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev.

npm install idevice-browser

Or put this in your package.json

"dependencies": {
    "idevice-browser": "*"
}

USAGE

You can use the module in two ways or a combination of the two. Either you can build your own implementation of which devices who is online at the moment by listening to the event emitted ideviceonline and ideviceoffline. Or you could get the online devices since a spesific date by idevice.getDevices(dateSinceLastSeen).

Example one

var idevice = require('idevice-browser');

idevice.start();

setInterval(function() { 
    var lastSeen = new Date();
        lastSeen.setTime(lastSeen.getTime() - 3600000);

    console.log(idevice.getDevices(lastSeen));
}, 5000);

Example two

var idevice        = require('idevice-browser')
  , devices        = {}
  , deletedDevices = {};

idevice.on('ideviceonline', function(device) {
    devices[device.name] = device;
    console.log('Found an iDevice on your network: ' + device.name, device);
});

idevice.on('ideviceoffline', function(device) {
    deletedDevices[device.name] = device;
    delete devices[device.name];
    console.log('Remove device', device.name);
});

idevice.start();
