base on A small service that generates iMessage registration data on a Mac # mac-registration-provider A small service that generates iMessage registration data on a Mac. If you do not have access to Beeper Cloud, you can use this to generate an iMessage registration code and use it in Beeper Mini. ## Supported MacOS versions The tool is currently quite hacky, so it only works on specific versions of macOS. * Intel: 10.14.6, 10.15.1 - 10.15.7, 11.5 - 11.7, 12.7.1, 13.3.1, 13.5 - 13.6.4, 14.0 - 14.3 * Apple Silicon: 12.7.1, 13.3.1, 13.5 - 13.6.4, 14.0 - 14.3 On unsupported versions, it will tell you that it's unsupported and exit. A future version may work in less hacky ways to support more OS versions. ## Usage 1. On your Mac, download the latest `mac-registration-provider` file from the latest [release](https://github.com/beeper/mac-registration-provider/releases)  Alternatively, you can download the latest build from GitHub actions ([direct link](https://nightly.link/beeper/mac-registration-provider/workflows/go/main/mac-registration-provider-universal.zip)). 2. Open Terminal app (<kbd>⌘</kbd> + <kbd>space</kbd> -> Terminal), type `cd Downloads`, hit enter 3. Type `chmod +x mac-registration-provider`, hit enter 4. Type `./mac-registration-provider`, hit enter 5. If you get a popup saying "the developer cannot be verified", go to Settings -> Privacy & Security and scroll down. There should be an entry for mac-registration-provider and a button to "Allow Anyway". ## Future improvements If anyone wants to package this into an app that lives in your dock and runs at startup, we'd appreciate it! ## Modes of operation The service has three different modes of operation, and various flags associated with each mode. Only one mode can be used at a time. The only mode that works with Beeper is Relay, which is the default. * Relay (default) - connect to a websocket and return registration data when the server requests it. * `-relay-server` Use a different relay server (defaults to `https://registration-relay.beeper.com`). * Submit - periodically generate registration data and push it to a server. * The list of addresses to submit to must be provided as arguments after the flags. * `-submit-interval` - The interval to submit data at (required). * `-submit-token` - A bearer token to include when submitting data (defaults to no auth). * `-once` - generate a single registration data, print it to stdout and exit ", Assign "at most 3 tags" to the expected json: {"id":"6246","tags":[]} "only from the tags list I provide: []" returns me the "expected json"
