Django Find My Device

Find My Device client and server implemented in Python using Django. Usable for the Andorid App FindMyDevice by Nnulide:

Note: For command notifications, you also need to install a https://unifiedpush.org/ app like "ntfy":

Django "Find My Device" server for YunoHost

State

Server implementation

What worked:

• App can register the device
• App can send a new location
• App can delete all server data by unregister the device
• The Web page can fetch the location of a device
• Paginate between locations in Web page
• Push notification of commands

Server TODOs:

• Pictures

Client implementation

e.g.:

~/django-find-my-device$ ./manage.py fmd --get-location --device-id 2gvp8d --password your-password

Start hacking:

~$ git clone https://gitlab.com/jedie/django-find-my-device.git
~$ cd django-find-my-device
~/django-find-my-device$ ./manage.py
...
(findmydevice) run_dev_server

There is also a docker dev. setup, e.g.:

~/django-find-my-device$ make up

Notes:

• The app will not accept self-signed certificates! So you need to use non-https URLs for testing.
• Django dev server and docker compose will bind to 0.0.0.0:8000 by default! So it's accessible from other devices in your network!

The FindMyDevice concept and the App/Web pages credits goes to Nnulide the creator of the app FindMyDevice.

Currently, we store a copy of html/js/css etc. files from findmydeviceserver/web/ (GNU GPLv3) into our project repository here:

• findmydevice/static/fmd_externals
• findmydevice/web/

This is done by update_fmdserver_files.sh script.
