A little native network debugging tool for iOS

by iOS Example

Bagel

Bagel is a little native iOS network debugger. It's not a proxy debugger so you don't have to mess around with certificates, proxy settings etc. As long as your iOS devices and your Mac are in the same network, you can view the network traffic of your apps seperated by the devices.

Installation

Install Mac App

  • Clone the repo.
  • Install pods.
  • Build and archive the project.

Install iOS Client

CocoaPods

Currently best way to install Bagel is to use Cocoapods.

pod 'Bagel'

Usage

Most basic usage is to start Bagel iOS before any network operation.

//import Bagel
Bagel.start()

Configuring Bagel

By default, Bagel gets your project name and device information. Desktop client uses these informations to separate projects and devices. You can configure these if you wish:

let bagelConfig = BagelConfiguration()

bagelConfig.project.projectName = "Custom Project Name"
bagelConfig.device.deviceName = "Custom Device Name"
bagelConfig.device.deviceDescription = "Custom Device Description"

Bagel.start(configuration: bagelConfig)

Bagel framework communicates with the desktop client by using Bonjour protocol. You can also configure these Netservice parameters. Default values are:

let bagelConfig = BagelConfiguration()

bagelConfig.netservicePort = 43434
bagelConfig.netserviceDomain = ""
bagelConfig.netserviceType = "_Bagel._tcp"
bagelConfig.netserviceName = ""

Bagel.start(configuration: bagelConfig)

If you change Netservice parameters in your app, you should also change them on desktop client.
