Quick Emulators

Launch your Android emulators (Genymotion and AVDs) via Spotlight: ? + Space

Use

brew tap dvoiss/tap brew install quick-emulators brew services start dvoiss/tap/quick-emulators

How does it work?

The process started by brew services will create .app files under the directory: ~/Applications/Quick Emulators/ (see screenshot below). These empty app files are indexed by Spotlight. They contain a shell script that launches one of these commands:

  1. For Android Virtual Devices:

    PATH_TO_ANDROID_SDK/tools/emulator -avd <name-of-emulator>

  2. For Genymotion Virtual Machines:

    /Applications/Genymotion.app/Contents/MacOS/player.app/Contents/MacOS/player --vm-name <name-of-emulator>

For AVDs an ANDROID_SDK or ANDROID_HOME environment variable must be set. For Genymotion the Genymotion app must be at the default path above.

The background daemon watches for changes in the default locations that AVDs and Genymotion virtual machines are installed to: ~/.android/avd/ and ~/.Genymobile/Genymotion/deployed/. When you add or remove a new emulator the generated folder containing the .app files gets re-written. For more information see the plist method in the Homebrew formula for Quick Emulators.

The generated app files are tagged with "Emulator" and either "AVD" or "Genymotion". These tags can be used in Spotlight as well:

Caveats:

Genymotion and Android virtual devices cannot run side by side due to the error below. This happens whether you launch them using Quick Emulators or via a different method. The message below occurs while running a Genymotion emulator.

$ emulator -avd <device-name> ... emulator: ERROR: Unfortunately, there's an incompatibility between HAXM hypervisor and VirtualBox 4.3.30+ which doesn't allow multiple hypervisors to co-exist.  It is being actively worked on; you can find out more about the issue at http://b.android.com/197915 (Android) and https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/14294 (VirtualBox)  Internal error: initial hax sync failed

Handles the drawable binding and position on View, EditText, ImageView or TextView. Also can change the icon color, alpha and size using a SelectorDrawable.

This is mainly core java project. It solves the problem of valid and meaningful random data generation in code flow itself (rather than parsing some random data file and loading data into some list).

It can use existing class models and generate wide range of preexisting random data to test data intensive application in absence of APIs.
