MBDB.rb

Read .mbdb files using Ruby.

The .mbdb file extension is associated with the Apple iTunes, the standard manage application for iOS devices. A .mbdb file contains a list of files, that are stored in the backup of the iOS device. The MB database was introduced in iTunes 9.2.

Project Outlines

The project outlines as described in my blog post about Open Source Software Collaboration.

• The main purpose of this library is to provide an interface to Apple's MB database format using Ruby.
• The features should not go beyond Apple's features and functions. So the features of this software are limited to those of Apple.
• This list is open. Feel free to request features.

https://rubygems.org/gems/mbdb
