A self contained GSMTAP logger using Scat with wireshark.
This project is useful to collect quickly in a command line/ headless environment the diagnostic logs from a Android phone (like the nexus5x) through its USB port.
This is an alternative to my (quick and dirty) diag-logger that was using hardcoded initialization sentences for the DIAG mode and pycrate as a LTE parser. In this project I use wireshark parsers using the GSMTAP output of scat. wireshark has a JSON output that can be piped to something else for building a larger concept from this.
There might be some problems at the initialization of the diag mode, right now I added a poor patch to ignore the exception raised by the USB writes timeouts and to continue with the initialization process. In my environement (nexus5x) this is working better between two following execution of scat, but YMMV.
docker-compose build
Adjust the USB device to use in docker-compose.yml (refer to Scat comments on the matter), but basically you need to hunt down the raw usb interface to use, and then run :
docker-compose up
The output should look like :
