Vitacompanion is a user module which makes developing homebrews for the PS Vita device easier. It does two things:
- Open a FTP server on port 1337
- Listen to commands on port 1338
This fork contains some UX and other internal improvements
Use VDSuite
The main plugin vitacompanion.suprx requires QuickMenuReborn, to install it see instructions here
The kernel plugin is to be installed normally run VitaShell on your PS Vita, press SELECT to activate the FTP server and copy VCKernel.skprx to ur0:/tai. Finally, add the following line to ur0:/tai/config.txt under the *KERNEL section:
ur0:tai/VCKernel.skprx
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.
Use the help command for usage information, you can also see include/command_definitions.h
See src/command_definitions.cpp for sauce or to add your own commands
