Android Oreo-compatible am command reimplementation

am (Activity Manager) command in Android can be used to start Activity or send Broadcast from shell, however since Android Oreo that command only works from adb shell, not from apps. This is modified version of that command that is usable from app.

Running

In this repository there are two wrapper scripts:

  • am-libexec-packaged
  • am-apk-installed

First one is for use as installed package in Termux, while second one is for development, using TermuxAm apk that is installed as app in Android, allowing installation of Java part from Android Studio

Running tests/debugging

Tests checking IActivityManager wrapper class are in app/src/androidTest/java/com/termux/termuxam/IActivityManagerTest.java and are runnable/debuggable from Android Studio
