# JADB # ADB client implemented in pure Java. The Android Debug Bridge (ADB) is a client-server architecture used to communicate with Android devices (install APKs, debug apps, etc). The Android SDK Tools are available for the major platforms (Mac, Windows & Linux) and include the `adb` command line tool which implements the ADB protocol. This projects aims at providing an up to date implementation of the ADB protocol. [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/vidstige/jadb.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/vidstige/jadb) [![](https://jitpack.io/v/vidstige/jadb.svg)](https://jitpack.io/#vidstige/jadb) ## Example ## Usage cannot be simpler. Just create a `JadbConnection` and off you go. ```java JadbConnection jadb = new JadbConnection(); List devices = jadb.getDevices(); ``` Make sure the adb server is running. You can start it by running `adb` once from the command line. It's very easy to send and receive files from your android device, for example as below. ```java JadbDevice device = ... device.pull(new RemoteFile("/path/to/file.txt"), new File("file.txt")); ``` Some high level operations such as installing and uninstalling packages are also available. ```java JadbDevice device = ... new PackageManager(device).install(new File("/path/to/my.apk")); ``` ## Protocol Description ## An overview of the protocol can be found here: [Overview](https://github.com/cgjones/android-system-core/blob/master/adb/OVERVIEW.TXT) A list of the available commands that a ADB Server may accept can be found here: [Services](https://github.com/cgjones/android-system-core/blob/master/adb/SERVICES.TXT) ## Using JADB in your application ## Since version v1.1 Jadb support [maven](https://maven.apache.org/) as a build system. Although this project is not presented in official apache maven repositories this library can be used as dependencies in your maven/gradle project with the help of [jitpack](https://jitpack.io). [Jitpack](https://jitpack.io) is a system which parses github public repositories and make artifacts from them. You only need to add [jitpack](https://jitpack.io) as a repository to let maven/gradle to search for artifacts in it, like so ``` jitpack.io https://jitpack.io ``` After that you will need to add actual dependency. [Jitpack](https://jitpack.io) takes groupId, artifactId and version id from repository name, project name and tag ignoring actual values from pom.xml. So you need to write: ``` com.github.vidstige jadb v1.0.1 ``` ## Troubleshooting If you cannot connect to your device check the following. - Your adb server is running by issuing `adb start-server` - You can see the device using adb `adb devices` If you see the device in `adb` but not in `jadb` please file an issue on https://github.com/vidstige/jadb/. ### Workaround for Unix Sockets Adb Server Install `socat` and issue the following to forward port 5037 to the unix domain socket. ```bash socat TCP-LISTEN:5037,reuseaddr,fork UNIX-CONNECT:/tmp/5037 ``` ## Contributing ## This project would not be where it is, if it where not for the helpful [contributors](https://github.com/vidstige/jadb/graphs/contributors) supporting jadb with pull requests, issue reports, and great ideas.
