My implementation of AOKP's CMDProcessor as a standalone library.
This provides a concise and easy-to-use Java abstraction layer for the UNIX Shell on Android.
Examples:
// Executing a command
CMDProcessor.runShellCommand("touch /sdcard/test.txt");
// Executing a command as root
CMDProcessor.runSuCommand("mount -o remount,rw /system");
// Getting the standard output
String stdout = CMDProcessor.runShellCommand("echo HelloWorld").getStdout().toString(); //stdout == "HelloWorld"
// Getting the standard error stream
String stderr = CMDProcessor.runShellCommand("mount -o remount,rw /system").getStderr; //stderr = "mount: permission denied (are you root?)"
// Check if the device is rooted
if (CMDProcessor.canSu()) { ... }
// Executing several commands at once
CMDProcessor.runShellCommand("echo test" + "\n" + "touch /sdcard/test.txt" + "\n" + "ls -n");Preferably, use CMDProcessor in a separate Thread or in an AsyncTask.
If you don't, you will block the UI thread and cause lags.
new Thread(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
CMDProcessor.runShellCommand("...");
}
}).start();
