MoaiRemote - another remote launcher

[thebullno1]

I hacked together some scripts to make testing on device easier. This time, no platform specific feature is used so it should be portable. However, more shell scripting is needed to make the deployment smoother as compared to MoaiNao.

Basically, you can execute "moai-remote search" and it will list all devices that can be deployed to and "moai-remote deploy <archive> <address>" will deploy and run your app on the device.

Source code and further details: https://github.com/bullno1/MoaiRemote
A pre-built dummy app for Android: http://www.host-a.net/u/bullno1/moairunner-debug.apk (launch it on your device before executing the above mentioned commands)

I need someone with Mac and iDevices to test this. An xcode project or a pre-built ipa (for jailbroken devices) is appreciated.

I tested it, it works great .. and I added a GUI:

Works as expected on the first run. Doesn't work again after that. I am assuming this is because the runnerFunc returns after performing the "doFIle" function correct? I am new to lua but couldn't we just have a listener thread which kills the runner thread and launches a new one when new data comes in?

Thanks for your great work!

It doesn't run for a few minutes after the first time, because the receiving port is not closed down properly when the app quits. So you have to wait for your system to timeout on the port. So it just needs to be fixed to properly close the socket+port on exit, I think ..
