iPhone boiler plate or open source elm327 or tty term

[04colyZQ8]

Looking for some way to connect to wifi elm327 using iPhone to send my own custom commands, ideally I could write it in Java C or python. Looks like iPhone uses swift, cocoa not familiar with those languages.

Any recommendations?

This is not the correct way to do it I imagine, but...
I created a web page that the esp hosts and simply created a bookmark do it so it shows up on my Iphone like an app.. It's just for my garage door htough and it is password protected but the esp holds all the code.. Might not be what you had in mind though..

Not really elm related. But the template I built which works on iOS and Android using MAUI with the ODBX could be a solution?

All the hard work for dealing with the low level communication to the scantool is handled already. Just gotta set filters and send/receive data as you see fit.

Actually yes! That should work does the obdx communicate via wifi?

I turned some obdx code into elm code before it was really simple!

What language is that in then? Java script?

Yes, our example code includes communication via:
-On Android, USB, BLE, Classic Bluetooth and WIFI
-On iOS, BLE and WIFI

The WIFI communication on iOS needs more developers to test. I have 4 other developers which can use the WIFI option perfectly fine but I still seem to be the only one that cannot access WIFI due to some weird wifi routing issue.

Ok, would it be possible to access some of your code so I can modify it to work with a elm 327??

Or would you be willing help me write my own low level code?

I would assume it’s done in swift, coco, objective C? I don’t know either of those
or how to compile it.

I know C quite well especially low level. Love function oriented programming

I know a Java, but didn’t get good marks do not like object oriented programming

I know python decently

I have a very basic knowledge of C#

All the coding I have done is using the OBDX Pros "DVI" protocol which is all byte based.
Basically the purpose of the template was to have all the hard coding pre-done, so that developers just had to simply use the premade functions and create their applications. Typically I find young/early developers get stuck at the stage of trying to make basic functions t read/write data reliably, this takes this complexity aware by providing proven functions which I personally use to flash entire computers.

MAUI is microsofts cross platform system which allows compiling for both Android and iOS using C# code. Hence you do not need to learn Swift or Java, you can just use MAUI and develop for both at the same time.

Sweet!! Love that to be able to write it for my wife’s phone as well!

What do you mean by byte baised?

The python I seen before was just a few
Commands difference:)

Are you still working on your code or is it pretty much finished?

Is there a library in C# for connecting over wifi? Is this a server client relationship?

In C# and python we use serial imports and just so something
Simple like
open.elm
Write.elm
Read.elm
