MMWormhole is an Objective-C library that enables message passing between an iOS or OS X app and its extensions via files written to a shared App Group container. It supports near-realtime notifications using CFNotificationCenter Darwin notifications, simulating interprocess communication where none officially exists.
Use cases
- pass data between an iOS app and its widget extension
- send commands from a Today extension to the containing app
- sync shared state between app and watch extension
- get realtime updates in an extension when the app changes data
- share small messages between processes on macOS
When to choose
- you need lightweight message passing between an iOS/OS X app and its extensions
- your app uses background modes so notifications can be delivered promptly
- you want a simple mailbox-style API with identifiers for message channels
When to avoid
- you need true interprocess communication or large data transfers
- your containing app is not running in the background, since notifications may not fire
- you are building a new Swift-first project and prefer modern alternatives
