I am looking to connect to a car wirelessly using socketCAN protocol on MacOS using the module python-can on python3. I don't know how to install the socketCAN protocol on MacOS. Pls help.
This cat managed to get it basically working:
I have compiled it on my hackintosh (running Mojave) and it works from the terminal. I have not played around with it more than that, as it was just easier to use Liunx in a VM or docker or one of my Linux machines. When compiled, I was able to use all of my makeshift CAN devices and a USB2CAN device without issue. I am sure with some work, it can be used with Python-CAN, though you would need to write your own interface module for Python-CAN. As far as I can tell, it should work more or less the same, though the code is old (4 years since last update).
As stated in the accepted answer, you can use a native CAN device that is compatible with macOS and as long as it's compatible with Python-CAN, then you are good to go (or if it works on mac and not compatible, you can create and interface for the device and submit a pull-request on github for Python-CAN).
