I need help getting Android to Scroll WD Appium about wd

[diego-epicura]

I wonder if anyone test its own code before posting it. The above does not work, the only code I tried that is also working is

await driver.touchAction([{ action: 'longPress', x: 30, y: 500 }, { action: 'moveTo', x: 20, y: 100 }, 'release'])

updates?

[Nisthar]

Is this library maintained?

[admc]

Hi @Nisthar - there are a few amazing folks who review and take PR's, but there's very little new development. If you want something that has active development, I would check out @webdriverio. Cheers.

[Nisthar]

@admc Thanks. i have tried webdriverio before. They don't support selecting elements by id. Its hard to use it with appium.

[Nisthar]

@admc I posted an issue for this on appium. They said the parameters used by wd for scroll command is invalid. Do you think its possible to fix this?

[imurchie]

@Nisthar Can you post the logs for this? There is no way to fix anything without seeing what you are doing and what is going to the server.

[Nisthar]

@imurchie This is the logs from the appium server:

I created an issue for this in appium. But they are saying its an issue with wd library.
This is the issue on appium: appium/appium#13900

@imurchie @admc I also tried the code await new wd.TouchAction(driver).press(750,1750 ).moveTo(0,-75).perform();

This is the server logs for it. It seems like wd is not sending the correct parameters to the server:

[imurchie]

For touch actions the functions take objects with x and y properties.

await new wd.TouchAction(driver).press({x: 750, y: 1750}).moveTo({x: 0, y: -75}).perform();

[Nisthar]

@imurchie i also tried that code. Its the same error.

[Nisthar]

any updates on this? @admc

[brunojbarros]

@Nisthar
This is an example using webdriverIO:

        driver.touchAction([
            { action: 'press', x: 500, y: 1400 },
            { action: 'moveTo', x: 500, y: 300 },
            'release',
            
            { action: 'press', x: 500, y: 1400 },
            { action: 'moveTo', x: 500, y: 300 },
            'release',

            { action: 'press', x: 500, y: 1400 },
            { action: 'moveTo', x: 500, y: 300 },
            'release'
            
        ])

Hope this can help you.
Regards.

hi @diego-epicura this project hasn't been working for a very long time, I suggest you check out the webdriver.io ecosystem!
