[FEATURE] - A commandline version

[skinkie]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. While the release suggested there is a non-UI version, it seems this is currently not supported. The application always wants to connect to an X11 display.

Describe the solution you'd like Ideally: just a list of found devices as its output.

Describe alternatives you've considered This tool was the first alternative I foud for the official code, I have now tried a python variant which only lists the first device found on the first network interface. Hence, it needs more work.

The so-called "non UI" version just doesn't include the FlatLaf library for a modern look and feel - it is not a CLI version. Since not everyone may have the ability to display graphical content, the proposed feature should be mandatory.

If you prefer using Python, you can try out this small snippet, which can parse received UBNT packets. Please note that the type handling is not implemented:

import construct as cs
from construct_dataclasses import dataclass_struct, csfield

@dataclass_struct
class Record:
    type: int = csfield(cs.Int8ub)
    length: int = csfield(cs.Int16ub)
    value: bytes = csfield(cs.Bytes(cs.this.length))

@dataclass_struct
class Frame:
    version: int = csfield(cs.Int8ub)
    command: int = csfield(cs.Int8ub)
    size: int = csfield(cs.Int16sb)
    records: list[Record] = csfield(cs.GreedyRange(Record.struct))

Frame.parser.parse(b"...")
