# libirecovery
*The libirecovery library allows communication with iBoot/iBSS of iOS devices
via USB.*
## Features
libirecovery is a cross-platform library which implements communication to
iBoot/iBSS found on Apple's iOS devices via USB. A command-line utility named
`irecovery` is also provided.
This is a fork of an older version from former openjailbreak.org and is meant to
be used with [idevicerestore](https://github.com/libimobiledevice/idevicerestore.git/) from the [libimobiledevice](https://github.com/libimobiledevice/) project.
## Installation / Getting started
### Debian / Ubuntu Linux
First install all required dependencies and build tools:
```shell
sudo apt-get install \
build-essential \
checkinstall \
git \
autoconf \
automake \
libtool-bin \
libreadline-dev \
libusb-1.0-0-dev
```
Then clone the actual project repository:
```shell
git clone https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libirecovery.git
cd libirecovery
```
Now you can build and install it:
```shell
./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install
```
## Usage
First of all attach your device to your machine. Make sure your device is not
in normal mode. You can use the `ideviceenterrecovery` application from
[libimobiledevice](https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice.git/)
to let your device boot into recovery mode if you need it.
Then simply run:
```shell
irecovery
```
This connects to your device and opens a simple shell to interact with the
device.
For instance to make your device boot into normal mode again use:
```shell
setenv auto-boot true
reboot
```
Please consult the usage information or manual page for a full documentation of
available command line options:
```shell
irecovery --help
man irecovery
```
