Tool for debug application. Allows you to update any value dynamically
Based on BroadcastReceiver. Content is sent via adb. For your convenience, a script has already been written to send a broadcast message. You receive the message and extract the data.
- Register BroadcastReceiver using extension function. See extension function list
Code sample below show how to register reciver. It`s easy.
// You must provide Context, because onBroadcastReceiveString method is extension of Context
private fun debugReceivingName(context: Context) : Flow<String> {
val debugFlow = MutableSharedFlow<String>(replay = 0, extraBufferCapacity = 1)
// method will called with default arguments
context.onBroadcastReceiveString { receivedString ->
// react to received data
sharedFlow.tryEmit(receivedString)
}
return debugFlow
// collect and update your state in outside this method
}- Send broadcast message with our script or adb command directly.
- Using our script:
./sendString DEFAULT_ACTION DEFAULT_PAYLOAD "Hello World!"
Don't use in production! This tool can be applied for debuging and developing android application. All extensions call registerBroadcastReceiver(), but not call unregisterBroadcastReceiver() method! Care about your users in production.
Today, you can add dependency of library only localy (clone and setup as local module). See sample
- Add lifecycle for unregistering receiver
- Support multiple devices
- Add ability send broadcast with multiple payloads
- Add ability send json
- Create plugin for IDE
- Simplify script usage
