You can either choose the more polished version of the script, which currently only supports
|
||||
- fetching the battery percentage,
|
||||
- and in-ear status (but not actually controlling the media with that information)
|

or the more experimental versions of the script (features listed in respective sections).

# Versions
|
||||
## Polished version
|
||||
|
||||
## Non-Daemon based
|
||||
### This version is the most polished version of the script. It can do the following:
|
||||
- fetch the battery percentage,
|
||||
- fetch in-ear status (but not actually controlling the media with that information).
|
||||
- control ANC modes
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 main.py
|
||||
python3 examples/logger-and-anc.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Experimental versions
|
||||
|
||||
### Standalone version (without module dependency)
|
||||
- Controlling the media with the in-ear status
|
||||
- Remove the device as an audio sink when the AirPods are not in your ears.
|
||||
- Try to connect with the AirPods if media is playing and the AirPods are not connected.
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 standalone.py
|
||||
```
|

|

### Daemonizing
|
||||
## As a daemon (using a UNIX socket)
|
||||
If you want to run a deamon for multiple programs to read/write airpods data, you can use the `airpods_daemon.py` script.
|
||||
- This creates a standard UNIX socket at `/tmp/airpods_daemon.sock` and listens for commands
|
||||
- and sends battery/in-ear info

#### Scripts to interact with the daemon
|
||||
|
||||
## Interacting with the daemon
|
||||
|
||||
- Sending data to the daemon
|
||||
You can send data to the daemon using the `example_daemon_send.py` script. Since it's a standard UNIX socket, you can send data to it using any programming language that supports UNIX sockets.
|
||||
You can send data to the daemon using the `set-anc.py` script. Since it's a standard UNIX socket, you can send data to it using any programming language that supports UNIX sockets.
|
||||
|
||||
This package includes a demo script that sends a command to turn off the ANC. You can run it as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 example_daemon_send.py
|
||||
python3 examples/daemon/set-anc.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Reading data from the daemon
|
||||
You can listen to the daemon's output by running the `example_daemon_read.py` script. This script listens to the UNIX socket and prints the data it receives. Currenty, it only prints the battery percentage and the in-ear status.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 example_daemon_read.py
|
||||
python3 examples/daemon/example_daemon_read.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Controlling the media with the in-ear status (and get battery status)
|
||||
This script is basically the standalone script, but interacts with the UNIX socket created by the daemon instead. It can control the media with the in-ear status and remove the device as an audio sink when the AirPods are not in your ears.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 ear-detection.py
|
||||
python3 examples/daemon/ear-detection.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Standalone version (without module dependency, mainly for testing, and reverse engineering purposes)
|
||||
- Controlling the media with the in-ear status.
|
||||
- Remove the device as an audio sink when the AirPods are not in your ears.
|
||||
- Try to connect with the AirPods if media is playing and the AirPods are not connected.
|
||||
- Control ANC modes.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 examples/standalone.py
|
||||
```
