Vitacompanion Plugin

vitacompanion by devnoname120 is a user module which makes developing homebrews for the PS Vita device easier. It does two things:

Installation

Run VitaShell on your PS Vita, press Select to activate the FTP server and copy vitacompanion.suprx to ur0:tai/.

Finally, add the following line to ur0:tai/config.txt

*main
ur0:tai/vitacompanion.suprx

You can upload stuff to your vita by running:

curl --ftp-method nocwd -T somefile.zip ftp://IP_TO_VITA:1337/ux0:/somedir/

Or you can use your regular FTP client.

Send a command by opening a TCP connection to the port 1338 of your Vita.

For example, you can reboot your vita by running:

echo reboot | nc IP_TO_PSVITA 1338

Note that you need to append a newline character to the command that you send. echo already adds one, which is why it works here.

Command	Arguments	Explanation
`destroy`	none	kill all running applications
`launch`	`<TITLEID>`	launch an application by id e.g. `launch VHBB00001` to launch the Vita Homebrew Browser
`reboot`	none	reboot the console
`screen`	`on` or `off`	turn screen on or off

Note: Commands are defined in src/cmd_definitions.c, you can add new commands there.

Thanks to xerpi for his vita-ftploader plugin, I stole a lot of his code (with his permission).

Thanks to cpasjuste for PSP2SHELL Vita, it inspired me to create this tool.
