SharpAdbClient is a .NET library that allows .NET applications to communicate with Android devices.
It provides a .NET implementation of the adb protocol, giving more flexibility to the developer than launching an
adb.exe process and parsing the console output.
To install SharpAdbClient install the SharpAdbClient NuGetPackage. If you're using Visual Studio, you can run the following command in the Package Manager Console:
PM> Install-Package SharpAdbClient
All of the adb functionality is exposed through the SharpAdbClient.AdbClient class. You can create your own instance of that class,
or just use the instance we provide for you at SharpAdbClient.AdbClient.Instance.
This class provides various methods that allow you to interact with Android devices.
SharpAdbClient does not communicate directly with your Android devices, but uses the adb.exe server process as an intermediate. Before you can connect to your Android device, you must first start the adb.exe server.
You can do so by either running adb.exe yourself (it comes as a part of the ADK, the Android Development Kit), or you can use the AdbServer.StartServer method like this:
AdbServer server = new AdbServer();
var result = server.StartServer(@"C:\Program Files (x86)\android-sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe", restartServerIfNewer: false);
To list all Android devices that are connected to your PC, you can use the following code:
var devices = AdbClient.Instance.GetDevices();
foreach(var device in devices)
{
Console.WriteLine(device.Name);
}
To receive notifications when devices connect to or disconnect from your PC, you can use the DeviceMonitor class:
void Test()
{
var monitor = new DeviceMonitor(new AdbSocket(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Loopback, AdbClient.AdbServerPort)));
monitor.DeviceConnected += this.OnDeviceConnected;
monitor.Start();
}
void OnDeviceConnected(object sender, DeviceDataEventArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine($"The device {e.Device.Name} has connected to this PC");
}
To install or uninstall applications, you can use the PackageManager class:
void InstallApplication()
{
var device = AdbClient.Instance.GetDevices().First();
PackageManager manager = new PackageManager(device);
manager.InstallPackage(@"C:\Users\me\Documents\mypackage.apk", reinstall: false);
}
To send files to or receive files from your Android device, you can use the SyncService class. When uploading a file, you need to specify
the permissions of the file. These are standard Unix file permissions. For example, 444 will give everyone read permissions and 666 will
give everyone write permissions. You also need to specify the date at which the file was last modified. A good default there is DateTime.Now.
void DownloadFile()
{
var device = AdbClient.Instance.GetDevices().First();
using (SyncService service = new SyncService(new AdbSocket(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Loopback, AdbClient.AdbServerPort)), device))
using (Stream stream = File.OpenWrite(@"C:\MyFile.txt"))
{
service.Pull("/data/local/tmp/MyFile.txt", stream, null, CancellationToken.None);
}
}
void UploadFile()
{
var device = AdbClient.Instance.GetDevices().First();
using (SyncService service = new SyncService(new AdbSocket(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Loopback, AdbClient.AdbServerPort)), device))
using (Stream stream = File.OpenRead(@"C:\MyFile.txt"))
{
service.Push(stream, "/data/local/tmp/MyFile.txt", 444, DateTime.Now, null, CancellationToken.None);
}
}
To run shell commands on an Android device, you can use the AdbClient.Instance.ExecuteRemoteCommand method.
You need to pass a DeviceData object which specifies the device on which you want to run your command. You
can get a DeviceData object by calling AdbClient.Instance.GetDevices(), which will run one DeviceData
object for each device Android connected to your PC.
You'll also need to pass an IOutputReceiver object. Output receivers are classes that receive and parse the data
the device sends back. In this example, we'll use the standard ConsoleOutputReceiver, which reads all console
output and allows you to retrieve it as a single string. You can also use other output receivers or create your own.
void EchoTest()
{
var device = AdbClient.Instance.GetDevices().First();
var receiver = new ConsoleOutputReceiver();
AdbClient.Instance.ExecuteRemoteCommand("echo Hello, World", device, receiver);
Console.WriteLine("The device responded:");
Console.WriteLine(receiver.ToString());
}
