lanscanner's Issues

No such module 'ifaddrsiOS'

I just installed the pod, and from my workspace tried to run my app on an iPad Mini, and getting the compile error:

No such module 'ifaddrsiOS'

I also just tried an iPad Pro Sim, and getting

No such module 'ifaddrsiOSSim'

Screenshot:

I'm running Xcode Version 8.0 (8A218a), targeting iOS 9.3

Support for MacOSX?

Hostname not returned (iOS 10.2)

Hi,

I just installed for the first time using CocoaPods and noticed that when calling device.hostName the devices IP address is being returned. I'm guessing a change has been introduced and it is not longer parsing the hostname correctly?

I have included a screenshot from the demo app that demonstrates the issue.

Method LANScanner.startScan() gets error 101 due of different network environment

When trying to integrate the LanScanner pod on a iPad Air 2 simulator I get the error code 101.
Trying to debug the problem I found that the method getLocalAddress() returns nil. Taking a look in the code it seems that the while loop that is looking for the "en0" string on the interface name are not matched. That error was triggered because I might be using an external network card.

What if it could be changed to the following:

  let name = String(cString:interface.ifa_name)
  if name..range(of:"en") != nil {
     //...
}

Would be glad if you allow me to do a pull request.

Regards,
