Show HN: TUI Bluetooth Connector for Mac

3 points by Zaloog 5 months ago | 0 comments
Hi, since sometimes my AirPods didn't autoconnect to my Macbook and I didn't want my hands to leave the keyboard. I looked for alternative solutions to quickly connect devices.

Found [blueutil] for MAC, but was not happy with writing long commands, so I build a pretty minimal inline TUI application on a beautiful saturday to:

- display paired devices

- pair/unpair devices

- connect/disconnect devices

- search devices

Ive used [textual], a very nice framework to create TUIs with python.

You can find the gh-repo here: https://github.com/Zaloog/blueutil-tui

Direct use with uv via: `uvx --from blueutil-tui btui`
