idevicedebug(1)

💅 idevicedebug — the manual page, but make it make sense

okay bestie, welcome to idevicedebug(1), straight out of the General Commands Manual 🎀 this is the lil tool that lets you slide into the debugserver service on a device, no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

idevicedebug — talk to the debugserver service of a device 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

idevicedebug [OPTIONS] COMMAND

that's it. options first, then the command. periodt.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So the whole vibe here is: you're interacting with the debug service of a device. That's the main character energy.

And rn, the only command that's actually implemented is run 👑 — which lets you execute developer apps and then sit there and watch the stdout/stderr of the process like it's your fave livestream. not me being obsessed with a process's output 😭

lowkey important: "currently" is doing a lot of work in that sentence. there is exactly one command. don't go looking for more. iykyk.

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -u, --udid UDID — target a specific device by UDID 💜 you want that one, not just any one.
• -n, --network — connect to a network device 🌈 network mode, we love to see it.
• -e, --env NAME=VALUE — set the environment variable NAME to VALUE 🍓 (yes, in the NAME=VALUE format, fr fr).
• -d, --debug — enable communication debugging 🔥 for when you need to see the receipts.
• -h, --help — prints usage information 🫶 your bestie when you forget how anything works.
• -v, --version — prints version information ⭐

🎀 COMMANDS 🎀

• run BUNDLEID [ARGS...] — run the app with BUNDLEID, plus whatever optional ARGS you wanna hand it, on the device 🧚‍♀️
