Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

adbkit-monkey

adbkit-monkey provides a Node.js interface for working with the Android monkey tool. Albeit undocumented, they monkey program can be started in TCP mode with the --port argument. In this mode, it accepts a range of commands that can be used to interact with the UI in a non-random manner. This mode is also used internally by the monkeyrunner tool, although the documentation claims no relation to the monkey tool.

Getting started

Install via NPM:

npm install --save adbkit-monkey

Note that while adbkit-monkey is written in CoffeeScript, it is compiled to JavaScript before publishing to NPM, which means that you are not required to use CoffeeScript.

Examples

The following examples assume that monkey is already running (via adb shell monkey --port 1080) and a port forwarding (adb forward tcp:1080 tcp:1080) has been set up.

Press the home button

var assert = require('assert');
var monkey = require('adbkit-monkey');

var client = monkey.connect({ port: 1080 });

client.press(3 /* KEYCODE_HOME */, function(err) {
  assert.ifError(err);
  console.log('Pressed home button');
  client.end();
});

Drag out the notification bar

var assert = require('assert');
var monkey = require('adbkit-monkey');

var client = monkey.connect({ port: 1080 });

client.multi()
  .touchDown(100, 0)
  .sleep(5)
  .touchMove(100, 20)
  .sleep(5)
  .touchMove(100, 40)
  .sleep(5)
  .touchMove(100, 60)
  .sleep(5)
  .touchMove(100, 80)
  .sleep(5)
  .touchMove(100, 100)
  .sleep(5)
  .touchUp(100, 100)
  .sleep(5)
  .execute(function(err) {
    assert.ifError(err);
    console.log('Dragged out the notification bar');
    client.end();
  });

Get display size

var assert = require('assert');
var monkey = require('adbkit-monkey');

var client = monkey.connect({ port: 1080 });

client.getDisplayWidth(function(err, width) {
  assert.ifError(err);
  client.getDisplayHeight(function(err, height) {
    assert.ifError(err);
    console.log('Display size is %dx%d', width, height);
    client.end();
  });
});

Type text

Note that you should manually focus a text field first.

var assert = require('assert');
var monkey = require('adbkit-monkey');

var client = monkey.connect({ port: 1080 });

client.type('hello monkey!', function(err) {
  assert.ifError(err);
  console.log('Said hello to monkey');
  client.end();
});

API

Monkey

monkey.connect(options)

Uses Net.connect() to open a new TCP connection to monkey. Useful when combined with adb forward.

  • options Any options Net.connect() accepts.
  • Returns: A new monkey Client instance.

monkey.connectStream(stream)

Attaches a monkey client to an existing monkey protocol stream.

  • stream The monkey protocol Stream.
  • Returns: A new monkey Client instance.

Client

Implements Api. See below for details.

Events

The following events are available:

  • error (err) Emitted when an error occurs.
    • err An Error.
  • end Emitted when the stream ends.
  • finish Emitted when the stream finishes.

client.end()

Ends the underlying stream/connection.

  • Returns: The Client instance.

client.multi()

Returns a new API wrapper that buffers commands for simultaneous delivery instead of sending them individually. When used with api.sleep(), allows simple gestures to be executed.

  • Returns: A new Multi instance. See Multi below.

client.send(command, callback)

Sends a raw protocol command to monkey.

  • command The command to send. When String, a single command is sent. When Array, a series of commands is sent at once.
  • callback(err, value, command) Called when monkey responds to the command. If multiple commands were sent, the callback will be called once for each command.
    • err null when successful, Error otherwise.
    • value The response value, if any.
    • command The command the response is for.
  • Returns: The Client instance.

Api
