Wifi for Elixir
Various utility functions for working with the local Wifi network in Elixir. These functions are mostly useful in scripts that could benefit from knowing the current location of the computer or the Wifi surroundings.
This project is inspired by wifi-location by Fractal and node-wifiscanner by Maurice Svay.
Please help: The scanner works by parsing the output of Wifi diagnostic commands on the host system. Please make a scanner-wrapper that implements Wifi.Scanner.*name*.utility/0
, Wifi.Scanner.*name*.scan/0
and Wifi.Scanner.*name*.parse/1
If you are running an unsupported operating system. Refer to the Wifi.Scanner.Airport
implementation. Thanks.
Features
Currently the project implements the following
Wifi.scan/0
return a list of local Wifi base stations with information such as security modes and signal strength.Wifi.location/0
will attempt to triangulate the psychical location of the computer running the script based on triangulation using the local Wifi surroundings and Googles location APIs.
Pull requests or feature requests are more than welcome if you have suggestions and ideas on how to work with Wifi. Current only Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows are supported. All implementations are in an "Alpha" state, so pull request away.
Installation
The project is available on hex.pm as Wifi. Add it to your mix dependencies using the decided version, ie: {:wifi, "~> 0.2.0"}
, and be sure to add :wifi
to the applications
list, as we need to start the Hackney application for the Wifi.location/0
function to work.
