[Question] How to set up AppiumDriverLocalService

[saikrishna321]

@TikhomirovSergey is it possible to set the Android UDID when running appium server programmatically, as i'm running my tests in parallel. Can we set the way BOOTSTRAP port is set below?

new AppiumServiceBuilder().
withArgument(AndroidServerFlag.BOOTSTRAP_PORT_NUMBER,"Your port number");

[TikhomirovSergey]

@saikrishna321
Yes. You can

new AppiumServiceBuilder().
withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.UIID,"your UIID");

https://github.com/appium/java-client/blob/master/src/main/java/io/appium/java_client/service/local/flags/GeneralServerFlag.java#L40

If it is enough please close this ticket. Otherwise please provide some more details.

[saikrishna321]

@TikhomirovSergey Awesome.. 👍 Closing the ticket

[saikrishna321]

@TikhomirovSergey How can we set the path of LOG_LEVEL, like i want to name the file as udid.txt where should i specify that ?

[saikrishna321]

(GeneralServerFlag.LOG_LEVEL, "info") i see logs.txt created under ma project dir. How can i specify the path and fileName of this ?

[TikhomirovSergey]

@saikrishna321
You can specify the path to the desired log file this way

new AppiumServiceBuilder().withLogFile(new File("path to the log file"))

Please close it again if the answer is right.

@TikhomirovSergey Thanks a lot.. very helpfull.. 👍

any info on how to use SHELL and WebHOOK flag ? Would b great if you can join the gitter room .

[TikhomirovSergey]

@saikrishna321
Sorry
Lots af everyday work.

new AppiumServiceBuilder().withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.SHELL). //here I can be wrong
.withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.WEB_HOOK("localhost:9876")); //Also send log output to this HTTP listener

Some flags are boolean. At this case you have only

new AppiumServiceBuilder().withArgument(YOUR_DESIRED_FLAG);

Some flags require values

new AppiumServiceBuilder().withArgument(YOUR_DESIRED_FLAG, "ITS_VALUE");

The full list of flags you can fing here:

http://appium.io/slate/en/master/?ruby#appium-server-arguments

Here are samples. All flags are described in java_cleint via:
GeneralServerFlag here are flags for all platforms
AndroidServerFlag Android-specific flags
IOSServerFlag iOS-specific flags

[saikrishna321]

@TikhomirovSergey

new AppiumServiceBuilder().withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.SHELL). //here I can be wrong
.withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.WEB_HOOK("localhost:9876")); //Also send log output to this HTTP listener

During the test execution, if i hit localhost:9876 nothing on this port is running

[TikhomirovSergey]

It just was a sample :)

[cdewangan]

Can we run Appium Server as daemon ? Do we have any flag to run AppiumDriverLocalService in background, as it is blocking my code to execute further.

[TikhomirovSergey]

@cdewangan it is most likely you are facing up this issue
#283

[cdewangan]

Thats right @TikhomirovSergey , Thanks for letting me know. I will wait for this merge.

[TikhomirovSergey]

If there is no question anymore I'm closing it...

Hi @saikrishna321 @TikhomirovSergey

I am not able to set the device Udid using the code below:

new AppiumServiceBuilder().
withArgument(GeneralServerFlag.UIID,"your UIID");

For me "UIID" flag is not coming in GeneralServerFlag. I am using appium java_client 4.0.0 .

kindly help me on this.

Thanks
Ravi

[saikrishna321]

@ravikr42 its moved to MobileCapabilityType

https://github.com/appium/java-client/blob/master/src/main/java/io/appium/java_client/remote/MobileCapabilityType.java#L73

[ravikr42]

Hi @saikrishna321
Thank you for your reply.
I am trying to supply Udid by shown code below:

DesiredCapabilities caps = new DesiredCapabilities();
caps.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.UDID, "UdidValue");

new AppiumServiceBuilder().withCapabilities(caps);

But if I am supplying like this, my Appium server is not getting started.Am I doing wrong? could you please let me know the actual implementation.

After supplying capabilities I am getting output on console like this shown below:

@ravikr42 Which version of appium server are you using? If it is appium 1.4.x please use the latest server and client which is 1.5.3 & 4.0

[ravikr42]

Hi @SrinivasanTarget
I am using node appium 1.4.16 and appium java client 4.0.0

-Ravi

[SrinivasanTarget]

Uninstall Appium 1.4.x and install Appium1.5.3. Give a try after that, it
will work.
