tzutalin / adb-event-record Goto Github PK

I am trying to run it on Windows machine, because I have CAN device to work with, and I get following:

Python 3.6

python adbrecord.py --show
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "adbrecord.py", line 177, in

So I am trying to run your code on Windows, python 2.7:

adbrecord.py --show

But I get this error:

File "C:[path-to-code]\adb-event-record-master\adbrecord.py", line 73, in listAllEvent
stderr=PIPE)
File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 394, in init
errread, errwrite)
File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 644, in _execute_child
startupinfo)
WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified

So I tried to delve into subprocess.py and specifically look for the arguments passed in the constructor Popen as your code fails when calling subprocess.Popen(...) (adbrecord.py line 72)

adb = subprocess.Popen(self.adb_shell_command + [b'getevent', '-i'], stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE,
stderr=PIPE)

I tried to solve the issue by for example adding shell = True to subprocess.Popen:

adb = subprocess.Popen(self.adb_shell_command + [b'getevent', '-i'], stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE,
stderr=PIPE, shell = True)

Because I read somewhere that it's needed.
It apparently solved(?) the issue, but then I got the following error:

File "C:[path-to-code]\adb-event-record-master\adbrecord.py", line 67, in checkPermission
if subprocess.call(self.adb_command + [b'root']) != 0:
File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 172, in call
return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 394, in init
errread, errwrite)
File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 644, in _execute_child
startupinfo)
WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified

So I guess I basically need to add shell=True wherever subprocess is called.

Now I get:

line 68, in checkPermission
raise OSError('Insufficient permissions')
OSError: Insufficient permissions

Which I guess is related to permissions from my phone, so I'll try to solve the issue later.

PS.
This is how to constructor looks like in subprocess.py:

Is there a command to stop recording?

After I try to play recorded script, BACK press events are not replied

1. The record was not complete. My record contains the keyboard input, it is "deng wo 3 fenzhong", but replay is "eng wo 3 fenzhong ", miss the first character.
2. The virtual button was not record. I tap the home button, but this tap was not recorded.
3. Is the programe need root? There are some warning tips "adbd cannot run as root in production builds". If it is, could you add this to the readme file ?
