Setting up AndroidViewClient on Windows 8 - Version Confusion


I used easy_install to install androidviewclient v.5.4.3. I also downloaded androidviewclient-master from here. (which is v.5.1.1 for some reason)

My question is, what should I set ANDROID_VIEW_CLIENT_HOME? The path to where I have androidviewclient-master? or to where the .egg was installed?

The reason I ask is because the .egg does not have examples or a bunch of other files.

I am a little confused on where the best place to get this tool from and which to use (or both).


Solution

  • You should set ANDROID_VIEW_CLIENT_HOME parameter as a path to androidviewclient-master.

    For example if you extracted androidviewclient-master files directly on C:\ then set ANDROID_VIEW_CLIENT_HOME = C:\AndroidViewClient-master\AndroidViewClient

    If you want to download the latest AndroidViewClient version just sign up and login to the page you mentioned above https://github.com/dtmilano/AndroidViewClient. Then you will find "Download ZIP" on the right side of the page there.

    You may also download it from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/androidviewclient/ 7.0.2 version is already available there.
