'require': cannot load such file -- appium_console/version (LoadError)

It seems the version of Pry is very out of date. Does anyone mind if we upgrade it? I was trying to cd into an object and it failed. :(

So I will see what I can do and have someone else review it.

Add

• arc ios
• arc android
• arc selendroid

Hi,

I'm trying to get setup with Appium and have the following set:

rbenv version: 2.3.0 (set by Users/name/.rbenv/version)
arc version
appium_console: v2.0.1
appium_lib: v8.0.2

I can provide a full gem list if desired.

My appium.txt file is as follows

[caps]
platformName = "iOS"
platformVersion = "8.0.2"
app = "~/Users/name/Downloads/ios.ipa"
deviceName = "iPhone"
udid = "ad6d2c2d9dc9f63a7ffae9210c8ac17be4f9402c"
`bundleId = 'com.Company.iPhoneEnterprise'``

When I run arc or bundle exec arc I'm seeing the error:

`bundler: failed to load command: arc (/Users/name/.rbenv/versions/2.3.0/bin/arc)

I've updated all my gems and am not sure what the cause of this issue could be. My apologies if this is only an issue on my end. I'd appreciate any help.

appium.txt should provide a require common.rb.

ENV vars are a major pain. A text file can be checked into version control and is easy to use.

• must_equal (minitest)
• current_activity (ruby_lib)

I can get a working console by launching the appium server with the app information passed as parameters on the command line and modifying start.rb:8 to

8 new_command_timeout = { caps: { newCommandTimeout: 999_999, platformName: "android" }.merge(opts[:caps] || {}) }

 find_element(:uiautomator, 'new UiSelector().textContains("Text")'); # -- no element shown
 find_element(:uiautomator, 'new UiSelector().textContains("Text")') # shows element

If the statement ends in ; then the element will not be shown in Pry. Delete ; for it to be shown.

Include a method to get the fastest duration.

See this code.

steps = 0 = tap
steps = 1 = fast swipe

Duration needs to be a number that gets turned into 1.

arc setup selendroid should work.

It would be killer to pass in a path to the appium.txt file. :)

Not sure if anyone else like this or not. But it would be killer to have some doc or Wiki pages on useful commands.

Thoughts?

This is significantly faster than client side search.

@driver.execute_script %( UIATarget.localTarget().frontMostApp().mainWindow().buttons().firstWithPredicate("name contains[c] 'Sign'").tap() )

With appium 1.6.0 beta 1, there's preliminary support for XCUITest, since UI Automation is deprecated in Xcode 8.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to use page in arc when using this combination :(

To Reproduce:

1. sudo npm install -g [email protected]
2. appium &
3. cd project/ios
4. arc
5. Wait for arc to launch
6. page

The exception is:

Hi

Given Gemfile:

gem 'appium_console'
gem 'appium_lib'
gem 'appium_capybara'

When I run bundle console I get:

RuntimeError: toml doesn't exist /home/kowal/my_project/appium.txt
../gems/appium_lib-7.0.0/lib/appium_lib/driver.rb:85:in `load_appium_txt'

../gems/bundler-1.10.6/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:76:in `require'

This is fixed by gem 'appium_console', :require => false but I'm not sure if this is what we want. Maybe it could be fixed that it is not required to change Gemfille entry and make bundle console work.

Any ideas?

button(1) instead of b = e_buttons[0]

I'd like to have two appium servers running. One for launching my tests and one that ARC connects to for making queries and testing commands. Is there a way to specify the port it uses? I tried adding PORT=3453 to the appium.txt file and guessing command-line parameters when starting ARC.

It should work as relative or absolute.

Appium times out after 60 seconds when no commands are sent.

• appium/appium#178

• http://yardoc.org/
• http://rubydoc.info/github/appium/ruby_console/master/

There should be an easy way to print the version number of ruby_console.

> require 'ruby_console/version'
=> true
> RubyConsole::VERSION
=> "0.0.13"

appium.txt could contain a path to server.js

with appium1.6, latest appium_console, appium_lib, on windows 10. arc console does not work with windows application driver, arc does not support winappdriver yet ?

• arc setup ios fails #57

load <path to file> will reload changed files.

Add reload command which will load appium.txt and load the contents. This eliminates the need to exit arc and start a new session when a page object changes.

Don't know if it's the same for everyone but arc doesn't release the appium session once you leave the console. It means you have to kill appium and restart it to restart arc or execute test scripts.

If we're running against an apk and there's no emulator, it should start one.

Add def set_wait seconds=30 as a way to undo no_wait.

Is it possible to install appium_console on Ubuntu/Linux? I have tried to do this numerous times but always get the following error:

Is this something I am doing wrong or does appium_console only work in Mac OS X at the moment? If so, are there any plans for a Linux-compatible version?

Pry.config.command_prefix = "%"

The command prefix is required otherwise common words such as reset will invoke the pry command instead of doing what the user expects.

https://github.com/pry/pry/wiki/Customization-and-configuration#Config_prefix

The ARGV parsing is a mess. thor is way better.

There should be an upgrade command that updates the gem. gem update by rubygems is broken.
