jadb

#JADB# ADB client implemented in pure Java.

The Android Debug Bridge or ADB for short it a client-server architecture used to install android apps from an IDE or command line and to debug apps, etc.

The Android SDK Tools is available for the major platforms (Mac, Windows & Linux) and in there is a command line tool called adb that implements the ADB protocol.

This projects aims at providing an up to date implementation of the ADB protocol.

Example

Usage cannot be simpler. Just create a JadbConnection and off you go.

JadbConnection jadb = new JadbConnection();
List<JadbDevice> devices = jadb.getDevices();

Make sure the adb server is running. You can start it by running adb once from the command line.

It's very easy to send and receive files from your android device, for example as below.

JadbDevice device = ...
device.pull(new RemoteFile("/path/to/file.txt"), new File("file.txt"));
