sole / aafm Goto Github PK

Just as the title says, I cannot drag files from nautilus to the GUI to be copied over if they have spaces in their names.

With the current images for the Firefox OS Flame, aafm cannot open the root directory of the device.

The issue comes down to this:

root@flame:/ # ls -l storage/
drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 1970-01-01 01:00 sdcard
lrwxrwxrwx root root 1970-01-08 22:57 sdcard0 -> /storage/sdcard

So, as that symlink points into the same directory it is in, the call in https://github.com/sole/aafm/blob/master/src/Aafm.py#L134 creates an endless loop and the parent of /storage (i.e. /) cannot be opened in aafm at all.
I work around this by just locally changing that line to |is_directory = False| but that's obviously not the right fix. ;-)

It would be nice to be able to hide the local folder, and put the device_cwd into the title bar, to make the window more like a native file explorer window.

With a little more work, the progress bar could be moved into it's own window that would be opened for each operation.

Using an xperia play 4.1.2 JB with ubuntu 12.04 Python 2.7.3. When I connect my phone and start the gui I get these outputs and no folders are visible on the phone's side of the gui.

EXECUTE= adb shell ls -l -a /mnt/
drwxrwxr-x 5 root system 0 Jan 6 18:39 . wasn't matched, please report to the developer!
drwxrwxr-x 16 system system 0 Jan 6 18:39 .. wasn't matched, please report to the developer!

drwx------ 4 root root 0 Jan 6 18:39 secure wasn't matched, please report to the developer!

I believe the mount point for my device has changed since JB and is now /storage/sdcard0 and adb may have issues with that as well as this app.

Hey,

at first let me say, keep up the good work! The tool is a real good idea!

My problem is, ADB gives me an error saying
"
EXECUTE= adb shell ls -la "/mnt/sdcard/"
error: insufficient permissions for device
"
after starting aafm-gui.py.

I've got a Galaxy Tab 10.1 with Android 3.1, Kernel 2.6.36.3 and Build HMJ37 P7500XWKG9. (If necessary) It's not rooted and Development mode is enabled.

It'd be nice if you continue developing this nice tool and help poor non-windows-users like me ;-)

Best wishes,
Alex

EDIT
Additional information:
The tool also says:
"

• daemon started successfully * wasn't matched, please report to the developer!

I am using Ubuntu 11.04.

When I run aafm it opens in /mnt/sdcard which is empty. The only thing that shows up is ..

It will repeat until I kill it. I can run the adb shell fine. There are no problems moving around and listing files, so I know my device is connected properly.
By the way I am using an Archos G9 101 Turbo 250GB with android 4.0.3
I am using Ubuntu 11.04 x64 and I have python version 2.7.1 installed.

First: the box that displays "Done", when transfer is complete needs to reset when a second transfer is performed.

Second: It would be nice for the main window to display the progress of operations, similar to what is displayed in stdout on terminal. but maybe less technical

When run under windows the wrong file path separator is used for the device. This causes problems when displaying the root directory and copying files (probably other places too).

As an easy fix I added

command = str.replace( command , "" , "/" );

as the first line of the execute function in AAfm.py

only if there's nothing selected (saves one click!)

On my RHEL6.2 machine if I unplug and replug the USB aafm no longer works and I get gvfs related USBDEVFS error messages similar to the below:
usb 1-1.2: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd adb rqt 128 rq 6 len 256 ret -71

It looks to be some sort of conflict with gvfs-gphoto2 as I disabled the volume mounter by changing the pointer in /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.gtk.Private.GPhoto2VolumeMonitor.service to a dummy entry and rebooted and it's now all working again.

Old /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.gtk.Private.GPhoto2VolumeMonitor.service:
[D-BUS Service]
Name=org.gtk.Private.GPhoto2VolumeMonitor
Exec=/usr/libexec/gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor

New /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.gtk.Private.GPhoto2VolumeMonitor.service:
[D-BUS Service]
Name=org.gtk.Private.GPhoto2VolumeMonitor
Exec=/usr/libexec/gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitorx

Not sure if there's anything you can do but at least other users can learn from my tribulations.

I'm running aafm on a Galaxy tab 2.0 7".

If I try to copy a file to the installed sd card I get the following:

EXECUTE= adb shell ls -l -a /mnt/extSdCard/Music/
EXECUTE= adb push "/home/bob/Music/jazz-collections/25 Jazz Greats/25 Jazz Greats Vol 1/.02_count_basie__lets_jump.mood" /mnt/extSdCard/Music
failed to copy '/home/bob/Music/jazz-collections/25 Jazz Greats/25 Jazz Greats Vol 1/.02_count_basie__lets_jump.mood' to '/mnt/extSdCard/Music/.02_count_basie__lets_jump.mood': Permission denied

Using main memory seems to work fine.

Also, can I copy entire directory trees, or just one file at a time?

Thanks!

aafm-gui imports and uses pwd and grp. An appropriate Windows replacement seems to be

def get_owner(self, filename):
    #st = os.stat(filename)
    #uid = st.st_uid
    #user = pwd.getpwuid(uid)[0]
    #return user

    import win32api
    import win32con
    import win32security
    sd = win32security.GetFileSecurity( filename , win32security.OWNER_SECURITY_INFORMATION)
    owner_sid = sd.GetSecurityDescriptorOwner()
    name, domain, type = win32security.LookupAccountSid (None, owner_sid)
    return name

def get_group(self, filename):
    #st = os.stat(filename)
    #gid = st.st_gid
    #return grp.getgrgid(gid)[0]
    return ""

I can't copy /sdcard/anything to /path/on/laptop/backup
I need to create /path/on/laptop/backup/anything
and then aafm will copy to /path/on/laptop/backup/anything/anything.

If I don't do this, I get this error:
COPY FROM DEVICE: /mnt/sdcard/.astro => /usr/local/lib/aafm/Android/GN_GSM_20120512/.astro
EXECUTE= adb shell ls -l -a "/mnt/sdcard"

Note that in the copy above, I was in /usr/local/lib/aafm/Android/GN_GSM_20120512/
It is aafm that mistakenly added '.astro' to the destination dir.

I have same issue as #41 . When I try to copy any file from extSdCard on my rooted Samsung Galaxy S4, it fails with a "permission denied" error. The card is formatted exFAT and can be written to by the phone and by the PC when it is directly plugged into the PC. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04.

Hi, I just found the project some days ago and I love it since I hadn't any other reliable way for connecting my Samsung Galaxy S3 to my linux box. However I found that when you try to remove a directory, it just stay there (I tried with . prefixed directories) and I see in console: EXECUTE= adb shell rm /mnt/sdcard/.skynet, I think you missed the -r option there, so I go and search for execution instruction on files and found this (on src/Aafm.py):
self.execute('%s shell rm %s' % (self.adb, self.device_escape_path(path)))
and I replaced with:
self.execute('%s shell rm -r %s' % (self.adb, self.device_escape_path(path)))
and it works just fine but I can't find a way to commit the change to github (other than clone the repo) so I create this ticket for you to update your code

Thanks for your time and effort with this application

OS: Arch Linux, Python 3
Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab

No error messages, no nothing-only frozen transfer progress bar.
Program doesn't hang; copy succeeds if right clicking over item and selecting 'copy to device'.

Someone else reported this somewhere else. I'm adding it here myself to keep track of this bug! Else I'll forget about it :-)

copy_to_device or copy_from_host? etc...

I can open the gui and it 'mounts' my tab just fine, copying back and forth between my home directory and the tab works fine. I can not however navigate any deeper than my home/$user directory. If I try opening a folder, it simply doesn't work. This is the output I get when I try:

Traceback (most recent call last):

return os.stat(filename).st_size
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/$user/Videos/Videos'

The folder I am trying to access is /home/$user/Videos. For some reason, it appends an extra '/Videos' to it which doesn't exist. If I create a /home/$user/Videos/Videos symlink that simply points to /home/$user/Videos I can open it though.

So we don't need to browse back to where we were the last time we launched the app

Could this be configurable? (would need a preferences-file sort of thing for that)

Hello, @sole

I am using Arch Linux and have installed aafm from the package aafm-git in Arch User Repository.

It works good in the previous version.(20120414-4, which is built last year) However, after I updated the package aafm-git to the latest version 20140930-1, it needs root privilege to run this program. Otherwise, it outputs the following error message:

$ aafm

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/aafm/aafm-gui.py", line 5, in <module>
    import gtk
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py", line 40, in <module>
    from gtk import _gtk

SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xc2' in file /usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/cairo/__init__.py on line 3, but no encoding declared; see http://python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/ for details

This makes aafm.desktop useless for ordinary users.

What's more, the package maintainer Cyber Way said :

I seldom use that desktop file.If it's not working, consider file an issue at the Github project page clearing describing the problem. It's better to fix issues in upstream project than in this PKGBUILD file.

So I decide to report this issue to you. Could you tell me how to run this program without root privilege? Or make the aafm.desktop execute the program with root privilege?

Hope for your reply!

Yours, sincerely

Hi! Thx to ur great work on aafm. It impresses me a lot & remind me of the wonderful moment using Total Commander on Windows. ^_^ But could u pls make a configuration file such as .aafmrc for usrs setting the initial path rather than os.getcwd() and '/mnt/sdcard'? In my system(Arch Linux), it leads me to /home/usr/Documents which is not exist. I'm border to click .. every time. Sorry for my broken English, I'm just a newbie. -.-!

Hope ur program be yet another Total Commander bridging PC and Android!

Thanks and Regards,

When I try to copy a directory with some file inside to device, it copy only the directory without the file inside.

On my PC I'm running Ubuntu 10.01 (lucid), kernel 2.6.32-43-generic-pae.

Android device: Toshiba tablet, model AT-300, Android version 4.0.3, kernel version 2.6.39.4-00013-g7d9fd87, build number IML74K.01.000041114.

When I start aafm, the right panel for the tablet is blank. Running the Android SDK tool ddms I am able to explore the file system on the tablet. In case it matters, this is the entry I have in the 51-android.rules file:

SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, ATTR{idVendor}==”0930”, ATTR{idProduct}==”0963”, MODE=”0666″

Can you tell me why I can't see any file on the tablet using aafm?

Thanks.

Start aafm-gui.py in a directory where there is a symbolic link pointing to a file or directory that no longer exists, and aafm-gui.py exits.

For example...

ls -l /home/foobar/plugins
lrwxrwxrwx 1 foobar foobar 40 2011-01-12 15:04 /home/foobar/plugins -> /usr/local/mozilla/firefox-3.6.x/plugins

ls -l /usr/local/mozilla/firefox-3.6.x/plugins
ls: cannot access /usr/local/mozilla/firefox-3.6.x/plugins: No such file or directory

/usr/local/aafm/src/aafm-gui.py
EXECUTE= adb shell ls --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/aafm/src/aafm-gui.py", line 808, in

self.host_treeViewFile.load_data(self.dir_scan_host(self.host_cwd))

size = os.path.getsize(path)
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/genericpath.py", line 49, in getsize
return os.stat(filename).st_size
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/foobar/plugins'

Removing the dangling symbolic link worksaround the problem.

It would be nice if aafm would simply ignore such dangling symbolic links.

[ Yes, I used this situation to get around to cleaning up that directory, but still... ]

I came across 2 problems with the parsing.

The first is that my device produces a slightly different format.

e.g. :

---xrwxr-x 1 system sdcard_r 0 Aug 4 01:50 cineworld.trace

I'm not sure if this is due to the rom (miui) or something else.

The second is that the format of the date depends on the age of the file. I think this is quite normal for ls. Relatively new files have no year but older files include a year.

I have replaced the parse_device_list as below. Obviously the date handling isn't really much of an improvement but accurate display of the date is a far second to displaying the files (for me anyway :)

def parse_device_list(self, lines):
    entries = {}
    pattern = re.compile(r"^(?P<permissions>[drwx\-]+) (?P<owner>\w+)\W+(?P<group>[\w_]+)\W*(?P<size>\d+)?\W+(?P<datetime>\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2} \d{2}:\d{2}) (?P<name>.+)$")
    pattern = re.compile(r"^(?P<permissions>[drwx\-]+)\s+\d+\s+(?P<owner>\w+)\W+(?P<group>[\w_]+)\W*(?P<size>\d+)?\W+(?P<datetime>\w{3}[ :0-9]+) (?P<name>.+)$")

    for line in lines:
        line = line.rstrip()
        match = pattern.match(line)

        if match:
            permissions = match.group('permissions')
            owner = match.group('owner')
            group = match.group('group')
            fsize = match.group('size')
            if fsize is None:
                fsize = 0
            filename = match.group('name')

            try:
                timestamp = time.mktime((time.strptime("2011 " + match.group('datetime'), "%Y %b  %d %H:%M")))
            except:
                timestamp = 0

            is_directory = permissions.startswith('d')

            entries[filename] = { 
                'is_directory': is_directory,
                'size': fsize,
                'timestamp': timestamp,
                'permissions': permissions,
                'owner': owner,
                'group': group
            }

        else:
            print line, "wasn't matched, please report to the developer!"

    return entries

Add a new entry to the contextual menu to open currently selected file.

Locally it should open the file using the default associated program, remotely it should copy the selected file to a temporary directory and attempt to open it as before

So we'd get 1K, 4M, etc instead of raw 1024, 4096 etc.

We could also have a tooltip for showing the raw bytes... (?)

Jumping back via .. does not work either.

A 'human' name

Finer granularity when reporting the progress of copy operations. Right now it's too coarse, and sometimes the window gets flagged as 'inactive' because it's not responding to the GTK loop (specially when copying huge files that take long or copying many files that take long too) (maybe use a queue...?)

it is not uncommon to have a symlink that points to a nonexisting place (cache dir on /dev/shm that exist only when its app is running) and your current code cannot handle these
otherwise great idea using adb as file protocol instead of mtp !

on my device (android 2.3.4 xperia ray) adb shell ls -la fails to execute as it interprets the 'a' as a file to list. It works great if "ls -la ..." is replaced with "ls -l -a ...".

Refactor recursive operations in Aafm.py to simplify and debug them (specially the directories issues-should it create them or not?)

Thanks.

Keep clicking '..' on the left panel, i.e. keep walk into parent directory finally gives me this error:

Maybe with ./adb shell df ?

It'd be nice to have one. Not sure how it would work if this is packaged into a distribution.

originally filed in #54

symlinks have a 'l' as the permissions bit, and produce the "wasn't matched, please report to developer!" error message.

It would be nice if symlinks were shown in the window.

As mentioned in #11 (comment)

Using paths with parenthesis generates Syntax error: "(" unexpected in the device types of errors.

Must ensure paths are properly escaped before using them.

But what are the "forbidden" characters?

... in ~/.aafm ? to store...

• path to adb
• last used directory

Hi, I know you closed my original thread, this is what you wrote in the last comment:

Doesn't this ring a bell?

EXECUTE= adb shell ls --help
/bin/sh: adb: not found

If not, then maybe you didn't read and follow the instructions on the project page regarding setting adb in $PATH:
https://github.com/sole/aafm

But you closed the topic before I could respond. I DID read your instructions. They say this:

In case it doesn't work, you need to add the path to ADB to the environment PATH variable. In Linux this is done by editing a file called .bashrc in your home folder (.bash_profile in Mac OS). Locate a line that looks like PATH=$PATH and make it look like this:

PATH=$PATH:~/Applications/android-sdk-linux_86/platform-tools

Well, in my .bashrc there is no line with the PATH variable on it. The word PATH isn't in the file at all. So, being not very familiar with the Linux coding stuff, I wasn't sure what to do. I am not that familiar with this stuff, so I don't want to go changing files without someone knowledgeable telling me it is okay. I hesitated to just add this line to the bashrc file, because obviously on my system the PATH variable is being managed elsewhere - where? - and I don't know the ramifications of adding something like this to this file.

Are you able to tell me how to update this PATH variable so adb can run, or do you think I need to turn elsewhere for help?

Thanks.

My home folder is used by many installed GNU/Linux distributions, so some files could be have inexistent gid.

$ ls -ld /home/common/Skype/
drwx------ 6 muflone 1000 4096 11 ago 00.49 /home/common/Skype/
$ getent group 1000

Such files cause aafm to crash:

Your app should gracefully handle unknown gid

It would be nice to have a configuration option for:

• Default local directory
• Default remote directory

I edited the source goto my desired dirs, but a config opt would be nice

thanks

ps great program, i used to have to run sshd and sftp to xfer

A typical home directory in a UNIX filesystem contains several "invisible" files and directories. Therefore the left pane in aafm becomes a pain when showing the home dir. I might be wrong, but I believe most people will not want to copy their .bashrc over to their tablet. Perhaps there should be a button to hide them or show them.

I suggest the default behavior of dir_scan_host should be

root, dirs, files = next(os.walk(directory))
files = [f for f in files if not f[0] == '.']
dirs = [d for d in dirs if not d[0] == '.']

Thanks for this awesome program!

It would be nice to set the destination file's date&time to match the source file's date&time using touch.

"adb devices" gives a list of connected devices

serial number can be set in env['ANDROID_SERIAL]' or passed as "-s " on adb command line.
