🦋 OBEXFTPD(1) — bestie edition

okay so this is obexftpd, the Mobile Equipment file transfer server from the OBEXFTPD(1) manual page — and yes I'm gonna walk you through the whole thing like we're texting at 2am 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

obexftpd [OPTIONS] [TRANSPORT]

that's the whole vibe: options first, transport last, and order matters — more on that in a sec 👑

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so here's the tea: with obexftpd you can set up an obex server on any computer using IrDA, Bluetooth, or TCP/IP. Then you just reach the files on that server with, like, obexftp or the ObexFS. that's it. that's the whole thing. slay 🎀

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

⚠️ bestie listen to me — the ordering of options is important. the first transport option will start the server. so put your basedir and verbose options prior to any transport. check the EXAMPLES section if ur like "...what" 💀

🌈 Transport Options

  • -i, --irda — accept connections using the IrDA protocol ✨
  • -b, --bluetooth — accept connections via bluetooth 🦋
  • -t device, --tty device` — accept connections from this tty device. **NOT WORKING! 💀 like fr fr it does not work, do not come for me
  • -n host, --network host — accept connections from the network to this port 🌐

🎀 Setting The File Path

  • -c folder, --chdir folder — set the base directory for the server. your little home base, your main character address 👑

⭐ Version Information And Help

  • -v, --verbose — be verbose and give some additional infos 🗣️
  • -V, --version — print version string and exit. short and sweet 🍓
  • -h, --help, --usage — print short usage instructions 🫶

🌸 EXAMPLES 🌸

start listening for bluetooth connections and use a safe basedir — notice how -c comes before -b? that's the whole trick bestie:

obexftpd -c /tmp/inbox -b
