Appium insallation on CentOS

I need to install Appium for CentOS version 6. I already have appium environment in my windows system. I searched on internet but found nothing specific for CentOS. Can anyone provide detail documentation or steps? Any help will be appreciated.

Solution

  • To set up android automation in linux:

    a) linuxbrew installation: https://github.com/Linuxbrew/linuxbrew b) Download and extract android sdk to home folder: http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r24.4.1-linux.tgz c) Set android sdk path: 1. Open file by command:

    sudo gedit ~/.bashrc

    1. Add these lines at the end of the file:

    adding linux brew path

    export PATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/bin:$PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

#android
export ANDROID_HOME=/home/asci/android-sdk-linux
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
    1. Close the file.
    2. Run the command:

      source ~/.bashrc

    e) Run these commands one by one:
