View Source ExMobileDevice.Lockdown (exmobiledevice v0.2.19)

Communicates with lockdownd, an iOS daemon that holds system-wide information

The connection with the daemon is represented by a process, returned by calling connect/1. The created process monitors the caller, exiting if the caller exits, unless close/1 is called first.

Summary

Functions

Returns a specification to start this module under a supervisor.

Close the lockdownd connection.

Connect to lockdownd on the specified device.

Retrieve data from lockdownd.

Start a service on the device.

Start an authenticated session with lockdownd.

Terminate the current authenticated session.

Functions

Returns a specification to start this module under a supervisor.

See Supervisor.

@spec close(pid()) :: :ok

Close the lockdownd connection.

Connect to lockdownd on the specified device.

On success, a process is returned that represents the connection to lockdownd. This process will exit when the caller exits, unless close/1 is called first.

Example

iex(1)> ExMobileDevice.Lockdown.connect("00008120-0018DEADC0DEFACE")
{:ok, #PID<0.303.0>}

get_info(conn, opts \\ [])

@spec get_info(pid(), Keyword.t()) ::
  {:ok, %{required(String.t()) => any()}} | {:error, any()}

Retrieve data from lockdownd.

The caller may provide the following options:

  • :domain - The domain of the query
  • :key - A specific key

On success, the caller will return a map of the requested properties.

If no session has yet been started on the connection (see start_session/1), only a very limited subset of properties will be returned.

Example

iex(1)> {:ok, conn} = ExMobileDevice.Lockdown.connect("00008120-0018DEADC0DEFACE")
{:ok, #PID<0.303.0>}
iex(2)> ExMobileDevice.Lockdown.get_info(conn)
{:ok, %{
  # ... elided ...
}}
Link to this function

start_service(conn, service, opts \\ [])

View Source
@spec start_service(pid(), String.t(), Keyword.t()) ::
  {:ok, %{port: integer(), ssl: boolean()}} | {:error, any()}

Start a service on the device.

On success, the function returns a map containing the following keys:

  • :port - the port that the service is listening on
  • :ssl - a flag indicating whether an authenticated connection is required

The caller should then establish another connection to usbmuxd (via ExMobileDevice.Muxd.connect/0) and use this to connect through to the specified port (via ExMobileDevice.Muxd.connect_thru/3). If an authenticated connection is required, ExMobileDevice.Ssl.connect/2 may be used to secure the connection

This function requires that an authenticated session has already been started on the connection.

Additional service-specific options may be passed in opts.

Example

iex(1)> {:ok, conn} = ExMobileDevice.Lockdown.connect("00008120-0018DEADC0DEFACE")
{:ok, #PID<0.215.0>}
iex(2)> ExMobileDevice.Lockdown.start_session(conn)
:ok
iex(3)> ExMobileDevice.Lockdown.start_service(conn, "com.apple.mobile.diagnostics_relay")
{:ok, %{port: 50933, ssl: true}}
@spec start_session(pid()) :: :ok | {:error, any()}

Start an authenticated session with lockdownd.

On success, the connection process is now authenticated with the device and may perform privileged device operations such as retrieving sensitive information and/or starting further services.

@spec stop_session(pid()) :: :ok | {:error, any()}

Terminate the current authenticated session.
