# Installation

Install the last released version using `pip`:

```shell
python3 -m pip install --user -U pymobiledevice3
```

Or install the latest version from sources:

```shell
git clone git@github.com:doronz88/pymobiledevice3.git
cd pymobiledevice3
python3 -m pip install --user -U -e .
```

You can also install auto-completion for all available sub-commands by adding the following into your `~/.zshrc`:

```shell
# python-click<8.0
eval "$(_PYMOBILEDEVICE3_COMPLETE=source_zsh pymobiledevice3)"
# python-click>=8.0
eval "$(_PYMOBILEDEVICE3_COMPLETE=zsh_source pymobiledevice3)"
```

## Lower iOS versions (<13)

If you wish to use pymobiledevice3 with iOS versions lower than 13, Make sure to install `openssl`:

On MAC:

```shell
brew install openssl
```

On Linux:

```shell
sudo apt install openssl
```

# Usage

You can either use the CLI:

for line in SyslogService(lockdown=lockdown).watch():
    # just print all syslog lines as is
    print(line)
```

# The bits and bytes

To understand the bits and bytes of the communication with lockdownd you are advised to take a look at this article:

https://jon-gabilondo-angulo-7635.medium.com/understanding-usbmux-and-the-ios-lockdown-service-7f2a1dfd07ae

## Sending your own messages

### Lockdown messages

Every such subcommand may wrap several relay requests underneath. If you wish to try and play with some the relays
yourself, you can run:

```shell
pymobiledevice3 lockdown service <service-name>
```

This will start an IPython shell where you already have the connection established using the `client` variable and you
can send & receive messages.

```python
# This shell allows you to communicate directly with every service layer behind the lockdownd daemon.

# For example, you can do the following:
client.send_plist({"Command": "DoSomething"})

# and view the reply
print(client.recv_plist())

# or just send raw message
client.sendall(b"hello")

# and view the result
print(client.recvall(20))
```

### Instruments messages

If you want to play with `DTServiceHub` which lies behind the `developer` options, you can also use:

```shell
pymobiledevice3 developer shell
```

To also get an IPython shell, which lets you call ObjC methods from the exported objects in the instruments' namespace
like so:

```python
# This shell allows you to send messages to the DVTSecureSocketProxy and receive answers easily.
# Generally speaking, each channel represents a group of actions.
# Calling actions is done using a selector and auxiliary (parameters).
# Receiving answers is done by getting a return value and seldom auxiliary (private / extra parameters).
# To see the available channels, type the following:
developer.supported_identifiers

# In order to send messages, you need to create a channel:
channel = developer.make_channel('com.apple.instruments.server.services.deviceinfo')

# After creating the channel you can call allowed selectors:
channel.runningProcesses()

# If an answer is expected, you can receive it using the receive method:
processes = channel.receive_plist()

# Sometimes the selector requires parameters, You can add them using MessageAux. For example lets kill a process:
channel = developer.make_channel('com.apple.instruments.server.services.processcontrol')
args = MessageAux().append_obj(80)  # This will kill pid 80
channel.killPid_(args, expects_reply=False)  # Killing a process doesn't require an answer.

# In some rare cases, you might want to receive the auxiliary and the selector return value.
# For that cases you can use the recv_plist method.
return_value, auxiliary = developer.recv_plist()
```
