#add_command(method:, url:, name:, &block) ⇒ Object

Define a new custom method to the driver so that you can define your own method for drivers/plugins in Appium 2.0. Appium 2.0 and its custom drivers/plugins allow you to define custom commands that are not part of W3C spec.

Examples:


@driver.add_command(
  method: :get,
  url: 'session/:session_id/path/to/custom/url',
  name: :test_command
)
# Send a GET request to 'session/<session id>/path/to/custom/url'
@driver.test_command

@driver.add_command(
  method: :post,
  url: 'session/:session_id/path/to/custom/url',
  name: :test_command
) do
  def test_command(argument)
    execute(:test_command, {}, { dummy: argument })
  end
end
# Send a POST request to 'session/<session id>/path/to/custom/url'
# with body "{ dummy: 1 }" as JSON object. "1" is the argument.
# ':session_id' in the given 'url' is replaced with current 'session id'.
@driver.test_command(1)

@driver.add_command(
  method: :post,
  url: 'session/:session_id/element/:id/custom/action',
  name: :test_action_command
) do
  def test_action_command(element_id, action)
    execute(:test_action_command, {id: element_id}, { dummy_action: action })
  end
end
# Send a POST request to 'session/<session id>/element/<element id>/custom/action'
# with body "{ dummy_action: #{action} }" as JSON object. "action" is the seconds argument.
# ':session_id' in the given url is replaced with current 'session id'.
# ':id' in the given url is replaced with the given 'element_id'.
e = @driver.find_element :accessibility_id, 'an element'
@driver.test_action_command(e.id, 'action')

Parameters:

  • method (Symbol) —

    HTTP request method as www.w3.org/TR/webdriver/#endpoints

  • url (string) —

    The url to URL template as www.w3.org/TR/webdriver/#endpoints. :session_id is the placeholder of ‘session id’. Other place holders can be specified with : prefix like :id. Then, the :id will be replaced with a given value as the seconds argument of execute

  • name (Symbol) —

    The name of method that is called as the driver instance method.

  • block (Proc) —

    The block to involve as the method. Please define a method that has the same name with arguments you want. The method must has execute method. tHe execute is calls the url with the given parameters. The first argument should be name as symbol. The second argument should be hash. If keys in the hash matches : prefix string in the given url, the matched string in the given url will be values in the hash. The third argument should be hash. The hash will be the request body. Please read examples below for more details.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError) —

    If the given method is invalid value.

The pointer type is ‘key’ by default in the Appium Ruby client. driver.action in Appium Ruby client has ‘pointer’ action by default. This method is a shortcut to set ‘key’ type. Hense this method is equal to driver.action(devices: [::Selenium::WebDriver::Interactions.key(‘keyboard’)]) as below example.

Examples:


element = @driver.find_element(:id, "some id")
@driver.key_action.send_key('hiあ').perform # The 'send_key' is a part of 'KeyActions'
# is equal to:
# @driver.action(devices: [::Selenium::WebDriver::Interactions.key('keyboard')]).send_keys('hiあ').perform

#pull_file(path) ⇒ Base64-decoded

Pull a file from the remote device. On Android the application under test should be built with debuggable flag enabled in order to get access to its container on the internal file system.

Examples:


decoded_file = @driver.pull_file '/local/data/some/path'     #=> Get the file at that path
decoded_file = @driver.pull_file 'Shenanigans.app/some/file'
               #=> Get 'some/file' from the install location of Shenanigans.app
decoded_file = @driver.pull_file '@com.appium.example/Documents/file.txt'
               #=> Get 'file.txt' in @com.appium.example/Documents
File.open('proper_filename', 'wb') { |f| f<< decoded_file }

Parameters:

  • path (String) —

    Either an absolute path OR, for iOS devices, a path relative to the app, as described. If the path starts with application id prefix, then the file will be pulled from the root of the corresponding application container. Otherwise the root folder is considered as / on Android and on iOS it is a media folder root (real devices only). Only pulling files from application containers is supported for iOS Simulator. Provide the remote path in format @bundle.identifier:container_type/relative_path_in_container

Returns:

  • (Base64-decoded) —

    Base64 decoded data

decoded_file = @driver.pull_file '@com.appium.example/Documents' #=> Get 'Documents' in @com.appium.example
File.open('proper_filename', 'wb') { |f| f<< decoded_file }

Parameters:

  • path (String) —

    Absolute path to the folder. If the path starts with @applicationId/ prefix, then the folder will be pulled from the root of the corresponding application container. Otherwise the root folder is considered as / on Android and on iOS it is a media folder root (real devices only). Only pulling files from application containers is supported for iOS Simulator. Provide the remote path in format @bundle.identifier:container_type/relative_path_in_container

#push_file(path, filedata) ⇒ Object

file = File.read "your/path/to/test_image.png"
@driver.push_file "/sdcard/Pictures", file # Push a file binary to /sdcard/Pictures path in Android

Parameters:

  • path (String) —
