get_device_by( $field => $value)
WebService::FindMyiPhone::Device object for the first device with $field
set to $value
.
DEVICE FIELDS
There are quite a few device fields but the ones you are likely to find most useful for identifying devices are name
, deviceModel
, deviceDisplayName
, rawDeviceModel
, modelDisplayName
, deviceClass
.
name
is likely to be the most useful for identifying devices but multiple devices with the same name are possible and only the first found is returned by get_device_by
. It seems that Apple returns devices by some order of recentness so if your old iPhone has the same name as the new one, you are likely to get the new one first.
DEVICE OBJECTS
Device objects are stored as a blessed hashref, the _parent
key is a reference to the WebService::FindMyiPhone object that created it. The rest of the keys are directly from Apple. You are incouraged to inspect the data there and make use of anything interesting to you.
Device Methods
send_message( $sound, $message, $subject )
Send a message to the device. $sound
determines if a sound should be played with the message, a true value will cause a sound even if the phone or iPad is in silent mode. $message
is the message to display. $subject
is optional and defaults to 'Important Message'.
remote_lock($passcode)
Lock the device remotely and require $passcode
to unlock.
location()
Returns a hashref with location data. Keys include latitude
, longitude
, horizontalAccuracy
, positionType
, isInaccurate
, isOld
, locationType
, locationFinished
, and timeStamp
.
If <locationFinished> is false, the method will sleep 2 seconds, call the parent's update_devices
method and check again. It will try up to 3 times and then return what it has.
Possible values for positionType
are 'GPS' and 'Wifi'.
timeStamp
is epoch time with milliseconds, divide by 1000 for standard time with milliseconds.
