libimobiledevice

A repacking project of libimobiledevice for NAS package

There are no packages available in NAS world for accessing Apple devices. And several libimobiledevice packages in popular linux distributions also suffered from communication errors due to compatiblities between new iOS and GnuTLS. Therefore, this project comes to be an example for building libimobiledevice with OpenSSL and being repacked into a NAS package.

Requirement

• Python3
• Docker (libimobiledevice is built inner a container.)
• Synology Open Source Toolkit (for repacking them into a NAS package)

How to Build

Preparation

$ mkdir /toolkit

$ cd /toolkit && git clone https://github.com/SynologyOpenSource/pkgscripts-ng

$ cd /toolkit/pkgscripts-ng && ./EnvDeploy -v 6.1 -p x64

Clone This Project

$ mkdir -p /toolkit/source

$ cd /toolkit/source && git clone https://github.com/bxxxjxxg/libimobiledevice

Compile inner a docker container

$ cd /toolkit/source/libimobiledevice && ./build.sh

Build NAS package (without CodeSign)

$ /toolkit/pkgscripts-ng/PkgCreate.py -v 6.1 -p x64 -S libimobiledevice

// Output Folder: /toolkit/result_spk/

After installation, idevice*, ifuse, usbmuxd are available in command-line.

Mounting

This package will start the usbmuxd daemon as default. If it's not started, you can start it manually:

$ usbmuxd // background mode

$ usbmuxd -f -v //foreground verbose mode

Plug-in your iPhone or iPad, and then enter the passcode to allow the access permission.

Next, you can mount your Apple Device in user space:

$ ifuse /mnt

For unmounting,

$ fusemount -u /mnt
