I want to test some scenarios on my app when there is no Wifi connectivity, I need to first LogIn on good connection and then switch off the Wifi and continue doing some activities, Is it possible to disable and enable the network by code? I am using Java/Selenium and Appium Server.
Some potential on this topic is contained over here.
You can try creating a class of yours which includes an instance of NetworkConnectionSetting in the java-client of appium and set the flags accordingly by calling the built-in methods.
try{
((HasNetworkConnection) appiumDriver).setConnection(Connection.ALL);
assertEquals(Connection.ALL,((HasNetworkConnection) appiumDriver).getConnection());
// NetworkConnectionSetting ncs = new NetworkConnectionSetting(false, true, true);
((HasNetworkConnection) appiumDriver).setConnection(Connection.NONE);
assertEquals(Connection.NONE, ((HasNetworkConnection) appiumDriver).getConnection());
}
catch(Exception e)
{e.printStackTrace();}
}
This class 'NetworkConnectionSetting' works on Android. As per the request, the need is for iOS app.
I only can recommend you use the Network Link Conditioner app from Apple. For more information please read NSHipster blog.

I'm currently developping my first app in java.
This app requires a direct connection with my BL652, which doesn' t accept any kind of pairing option. That being said, I'm stuck with the code below, which still tries to pair with my bluetooth device instead of just connecting. Therefore, I wanted to know what am i supposed to do in order to make a connection that doesnt require pairing.
Thanks in advance for any response.
String mac_address = "DA:72:21:29:0F:F0";
private static final UUID MY_UUID = UUID.fromString("E54B0002-67F5-479E-8711-B3B99198CE6C");
lvNewDevices.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l) {
BluetoothDevice device = (BluetoothDevice) mBluetoothAdapter.getRemoteDevice(mac_address);
try {
socket = device.createInsecureRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(MY_UUID);
socket.connect();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
I'm not sure about connection to external hardware but it's definetly possible to connect 2 phones without pairing. I made it using Android Nearby Connections . And yeah it's basically working with BLE. As far as I know it's possible to connect to RaspberryPi using that API.
Bluetooth devices can be made to communicate with each other using master-slave configuration. I first tried with two BLE-HC05s, made one as master and the other as slave, and as expected the master is able to send data, slave is able to receive data, that can be seen using the Serial Monitor in Arduino IDE. I have developed a similar app, which connects to a BLE-HC05 device, sends and receives data. But since you are trying to get data or send data to the App on your phone, Android will not support such unpaired anonymous communications. If you are having trouble with connection or pairing Bluetooth device and your app, I may help you with that. But as far as Bluetooth communication without pairing is concerned, you may not be able to find a way.
Edit: The code to connect any bluetooth device, like BLE-HC06 as you have mentioned, is 1234 (Only if you have not changed it)
I have referred appium documentation for desired capabilities.
http://appium.io/docs/en/writing-running-appium/caps/
For android autoGrantPermissions capability is there but for iOS apps no capability is found to handle app permissions.
if there any workaround or any methods to handle native app permissions for iOS, Please suggest.
Note: In appium inspector, its displaying as " interactions are not available for this element"
One way to handle permissions can be by accepting of dismissing the incoming alert (I'm using ruby):
def alert_accept
$driver.execute_script("mobile: alert", {
'action': "accept"
});
end
def alert_dismiss
$driver.execute_script("mobile: alert", {
'action': "dismiss"
});
end
The below snippet has worked for me
https://discuss.appium.io/t/xcuitestdriver-autoacceptalerts/13761/11
try {
driver.switchTo().alert().accept();
}
catch (NoAlertPresentException e) {
logger.warn("Alert is not present" + e.getMessage());
}
You can do this via capabilities.
try autoAcceptAlerts.
IOSMobileCapabilityType.AUTO_ACCEPT_ALERTS
I'm trying to create an OSGi bundle that'd be installed on a eurotech gateway (reliagate 10 05).
This bundle would essentially connect the gateway to a BLE device.
To do so, I use a framework provided by eurotech called Everyware™ Software Framework (ESF) that adds up an extra layer on top of the kura v1.2.0 framework.
The catch is, the BLE device only accepts random static address type.
I managed to connect the gateway manually to the BLE device using the following commands in console:
hcitool -i hci0 lecc --random <BD_ADDR>
then
gatttool -i hci0 -b <BD_ADDR> --interactive
This works fine. The hard part is when I try to do the same thing in code using the ESF/kura framework.
Here's a snippet from a sample I use that I found on this page
public boolean connect(String adapterName) {
this.bluetoothGatt = this.device.getBluetoothGatt();
boolean connected = false;
try {
connected = this.bluetoothGatt.connect(adapterName);
} catch (KuraException e) {
logger.error(e.toString());
}
if (connected) {
this.bluetoothGatt.setBluetoothLeNotificationListener(this);
this.isConnected = true;
return true;
} else {
// If connect command is not executed, close gatttool
this.bluetoothGatt.disconnect();
this.isConnected = false;
return false;
}
}
Here is a list of some objects that the sample uses to scan and establish a connection:
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothDevice;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothGattSecurityLevel;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothGattService;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothLeScanListener;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothService;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothDevice;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothGatt;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothGattCharacteristic;
org.eclipse.kura.bluetooth.BluetoothLeNotificationListener;
So I searched through the api doc but didn't find anything.
Though, one interesting SO post mentions a command code to send to the device.
I found a method in kura framework that might help.
Here's the signature:
void ExecuteCmd(java.lang.String ogf, java.lang.String ocf, java.lang.String parameter)
but I couldn't figure out the OpCode Group Field (ogf) associated to the OpCode Command Field(ocf) in any documentation (I skimmed the ~2300 pages of the Bluetooth 4.0 core spec). If anyone knows where to search... :)
In the end, the question is: is there a way to set the address type to random (as with the hcitool command) with the kura framework ?
Or am I totally misleaded ? :/
Anyway, I'm really new to the kura and ble ecosystems so, sorry if it looks like an obvious thing to do but I feel like I'm running out of inspiration and could totally use a hand!
PS: Congrats if you made it to the end!
Haha lol. Kura seems to just start a gatttool process, send commands in text, and parse the output as its interface...
Here is where it is stated, using the address as parameter: https://github.com/eclipse/kura/blob/0339ac787f90debdfc270c1dee0c16de16ea6f7e/kura/org.eclipse.kura.linux.bluetooth/src/main/java/org/eclipse/kura/linux/bluetooth/util/BluetoothUtil.java#L319. Unfortunately the Kura developers seem to have missed that there is something called Random Address in the BLE standard and I don't see how that could be worked around using the current API.
Okay so for those who find themselves in my position in the future, I just received an answer from the Eurotech support team.
Dear Mr. Carneiro,
[...]
Regarding the random BD_ADDR, this is a configuration of the BLE device.
So, your BLE device is advertising an address of type random, not public, and you should specify the address type on the connection string, as you already did.
Unfortunately, current Kura Bluetooth API doesn't provide a way to specify the type of address into the connection string. We are developing a new set of APIs for BLE that will be available on preview on the next Kura/ESF release, but the Reliagate 10-05 will not support these yet.
I'm using libusb for communicating with usb device in java. My operating system is linux. But I have problem about open device.
DeviceHandle handle = LibUsb.openDeviceWithVidPid(null, VENDOR_ID, PRODUCT_ID_1);
if(handle == null){
System.out.println("Device Not Opened");
}else{
System.out.println("Device Opened");
}
I'm getting the error that "handle must not be null".
How can I solve this problem. Thanks for your reply from now.
I came across your question while searching for another problem. I don't usually program in Java, so there might be some slight differences in the names of the function.
I think the first step you have to do is obtain a Session Handle, which describes the entire operation you are trying to do. Then pass that session handle instead of the NULL to the function you used above.
Here's a reference to MonoUsbSessionHandler:

I'm trying to use vlcj to play live internet radio stations in a project. I've played around with some sample programs for a few hours, but I cannot get either the sample programs or programs that I've played around with to play the stream from the URL.
An example of a URL I'm trying to play is: http://network.absoluteradio.co.uk/core/audio/wmp/live.asx?service=vr
Is there anything special I have to do in order to get vlcj to play this stream? I couldn't find anything to help in the API. (Assuming it can because it can be played through the VLC media player!)
Thanks a lot
Ok, the MRL you have provided us http://network.absoluteradio.co.uk/core/audio/wmp/live.asx?service=vr is a MMS server that may pull a ASX (XML) metafile which may contain at least one sub-item.
http://all-streaming-media.com/faq/streaming-media/Metafiles-ASX-Advanced-Stream-Redirector.htm
To be able to play this type of streaming media and go through each sub-item, you need to do the following code snippet:
VideoPanel.getMediaPlayer().setRepeat(true);
VideoPanel.getMediaPlayer().setPlaySubItems(true);
VideoPanel.getMediaPlayer().prepareMedia(media, options);
try {
Thread.sleep(2000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
for(String s: VideoPanel.getMediaPlayer().subItems()) System.out.println(s);
VideoPanel.getMediaPlayer().play();
For the example MRL above, it will list down all sub-items as follows:
http://wms.absoluteradio.co.uk/g1/absoluteradio.co.uk/prerolls/ar_account_1310455302_hi.wma
mms://wms.absoluteradio.co.uk/absoluteradio.co.uk/vr_lo?u=

mms://wms.absoluteradio.co.uk/absoluteradio.co.uk/prerolls/problems_lo.wma
To stop playing all of them, set the following code snippet:
VideoPanel.getMediaPlayer().setRepeat(false);
VideoPanel.getMediaPlayer().setPlaySubItems(false);
VideoPanel.getMediaPlayer().stop();

You cannot use the http to play such link directly. You will ve to use the port number of the radio station router. this is because if i want to receive my home live video streaming from the internet at my workplace, i type the following on url: http://my dns server ip address:8080 The 8080 is the port number I opened on my router.
