💖 OBEX_PUSH 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the obex_push manual page — it lives in the User commands section, and it's literally the moment you learn how to push files over Bluetooth's OBEX Push Channel. it's giving very "send me that pic rn" energy. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

obex_push — Push and Receive Files over the Bluetooth OBEX Push Channel

no cap, that's the whole vibe. push. receive. files. bluetooth. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

obex_push [channel] [bdaddr] [filename]

three little slots, three little dreams. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so obex_push can send and receive files over the Bluetooth OBEX Push Channel. both directions. main character energy fr fr. 🔥

ngl, this program is designed to be an example application for the openobex library. it's the demo bestie. the reference. the "here's how you'd do it" of it all. 🙈

first thing first: link your bluetooth device with your computer. pair it up, bestie, it's not gonna happen without that. 💜

and you can peek at the SDP services with:

sdptool browse bdaddr

like, go look at what your device is serving. it's on the menu. 🌸

✨ OPTIONS ✨

okay so the rules here are cute and simple:

if you give no options at all, any files sent over bluetooth will be received over channel 10 and stored in /tmp. it's just there, chilling, catching files for you. 🫶

but if bdaddr and filename are given, the file will be send to the device specified with bdaddr. (yes, "send". the manpage said it, so I said it. 💀)

  • channel — the bluetooth channel to use. look up the OBEX Push channel with sdptool browse bdaddr. that's where it's hiding, bestie. 🔍
  • bdaddr — the bluetooth address bdaddr of the device to send to. it's the "who" of the operation. 👑
  • filename — the file to send. it's the "what". the payload. the lil gift. 🎁
