Running 4.2.1 AndroidViewClient jar throws 'bytearray' is not defnied. about androidviewclient

[dtmilano]

My fault, the documentation is running behind.
The jar is kept as legacy code and the newer versions (>= 4.0.0) should not use it. These versions are python only and does not require Java nor monkeyrunner.

In your case, because Mac OSX supports shebang you only need to run:

$ ./dump

and if you receive an error like

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./dump", line 28, in <module>
    from com.dtmilano.android.viewclient import ViewClient
ImportError: No module named com.dtmilano.android.viewclient

set

export ANDROID_VIEW_CLIENT_HOME=/path/to/your/AndroidViewClient/AndroidViewClient
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$ANDROID_VIEW_CLIENT_HOME/src

Thanks! Works for me now.

I still see this with other example scripts, for example ./gallery-select-album.py or ./browser-open-url.py - can you check?

I had a "NameError: global name 'bytearray' is not defined" error because of my python version, which one are you using?

[scheler]

I am using python 2.7.1 on Mac.

You may not be using python at all if you receive that error:

I look at the example files and I think it's because the first line is wrong : it should be "#! /usr/bin/env python" instead of "#! /usr/bin/env monkeyrunner"

[scheler]

Hello,
I changed the first line as you suggested but this time the monkeyrunner
python modules aren't available to the scripts. Here's the error I get:

MacBook-Pro:examples $ ./browser-open-url.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./browser-open-url.py", line 31, in
from com.android.monkeyrunner import MonkeyRunner, MonkeyDevice
ImportError: No module named android.monkeyrunner

Here are the variable I have set:

MacBook-Pro:examples $ echo $ANDROID_VIEW_CLIENT_HOME
/Users/x/Downloads/AndroidViewClient-4.2.1/AndroidViewClient

MacBook-Pro:examples $ echo $PYTHONPATH
/Users/x/Downloads/AndroidViewClient-4.2.1/AndroidViewClient/src

Is there anything else I should be doing?

Thanks.

I can successfully run my script I modified from the output of culebra from the commandline, using python. But I want to execute the script from Java and when I execute the same statements using Jython interpreter, I have the same bytearray not found problem:

The part of Java code:
PythonInterpreter python = new PythonInterpreter();
python.exec("import re, sys, os");
python.exec("from com.dtmilano.android.viewclient import ViewClient");
python.exec("kwargs1 = {'verbose': True, 'ignoresecuredevice': False}");
python.exec("device, serialno = ViewClient.connectToDeviceOrExit(**kwargs1)");
...

the command I execute java:
java -cp .:jython-standalone-2.5.3.jar:/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/androidviewclient-7.1.1-py2.7.egg MyJavaFile

The error I get:
Exception in thread "MainThread" Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "pyclasspath/com/dtmilano/android/viewclient.py", line 1436, in connectToDeviceOrExit
File "pyclasspath/com/dtmilano/android/adb/adbclient.py", line 93, in init
File "pyclasspath/com/dtmilano/android/adb/adbclient.py", line 211, in checkVersion
File "pyclasspath/com/dtmilano/android/adb/adbclient.py", line 153, in _AdbClient__send
NameError: global name 'bytearray' is not defined

I am using Python 2.7.5 and Jython-standalone-2.5.3 on Mac OS.
As in the previous comment, I also have the bytearray not found message when I type bytearray() after monkeyrunner command on the command prompt.

Is there an incompatibility between the packages I use or do I miss something?

Thanks.
