Cli: Support for network connected devices on Xcode

[pvinis]

Xcode can connect and run apps on devices that are connected with wifi. It would be very useful to be able to run react-native run-ios --device and the app runs on a device that's connected with wifi, and not necessarily with a cable to Xcode.

I can try to make this happen. Is that alright? Would this be accepted?

[grabbou]

Yeah, sure, that sounds like a good option! Please feel free to do it. I think we already support '--device' flag, you should be able to use it, right?

[pvinis]

yes, basically I want to expand that so it supports network devices too. cool.

[grabbou]

Let me know if you need any help - fingers crossed!

Alright, so two things:

• This repo is not yet integrated with the react-native repo right?
• I actually tried to run-ios --device using this repo for the local-cli, and it did find my network phone, but then ios-deploy doesn't support it. https://github.com/ios-control/ios-deploy/issues/370 and https://github.com/ios-control/ios-deploy/issues/320

Hey, are you working on integrating this feature?

[pvinis]

No, I just found the issues in ios-deploy. I don't have time to do this now, I just use xcode, that supports wifi.

@pvinis is this still an issue? I'll close for now, since it's an upstream bug

[pvinis]

I just tried it, worked. 👍
