While executing my test suite I have to switch between different wifi networks available in Android Device.
In the middle of the execution I have to change my wifi connection from Wifi_Network_1 to Wifi_Network_2 provided ssid name and password of wifi network is known. How can it be done?
I am using:
Appium server -->1.8.1
java-client --> 6.1.0
selenium-java --> 3.13.0
Since NetworkConnectionSetting has been deprciated, I am not able to find alternate for it.
I can toggle wifi on/off using
driver.toggleWifi();
But it is not suitable for my case as i need to toggle between different wifi network available using SSID name and its password.
Thanks in advance.
Hi I'am using this method due Appium deprecated their switch for wifi, and I've created my own override via console via commands from adb. It is working for me so give it a try:
public synchronized boolean wifiSetup(String udid, boolean flg) {
synchronized (this) {
String flgEnabled = (flg) ? "enable" : "disable";
List<String> output = Console.runProcess(false, "adb -s " + udid + " shell am broadcast -a io.appium.settings.wifi --es setstatus " + flgEnabled);
for (String line : output) {
System.err.println(line);
if (line.equalsIgnoreCase("Broadcast completed: result=-1"))
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
usage to switch off:
wifiSetup("xxxUDIDfromAndroid", false);
usage to switch on:
wifiSetup("xxxUDIDfromAndroid", true);
And here is part for calling console:
public class Console {
private static final String[] WIN_RUNTIME = { "cmd.exe", "/C" };
private static final String[] OS_LINUX_RUNTIME = { "/bin/bash", "-l", "-c" };
private Console() {
}
private static <T> T[] concat(T[] first, T[] second) {
T[] result = Arrays.copyOf(first, first.length + second.length);
System.arraycopy(second, 0, result, first.length, second.length);
return result;
}
#SuppressWarnings({ "hiding"})
private static <String> String[] concatStr(String[] first, String[] second) {
String[] result = Arrays.copyOf(first, first.length + second.length);
System.arraycopy(second, 0, result, first.length, second.length);
return result;
}
public static List<String> runProcess(boolean isWin, String... command) {
String[] allCommand = null;
try {
if (isWin) {
allCommand = concat(WIN_RUNTIME, command);
} else {
allCommand = concat(OS_LINUX_RUNTIME, command);
}
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(allCommand);
pb.redirectErrorStream(true);
Process p = pb.start();
p.waitFor();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String _temp = null;
List<String> line = new ArrayList<String>();
while ((_temp = in.readLine()) != null) {
// system.out.println("temp line: " + _temp);
line.add(_temp);
}
// system.out.println("result after command: " + line);
return line;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}
}
Hope this helps,
Background
I have banged my head against this for a while and not made much progress. I am generating MPEG_4 / AAC files in Android and sending them by email as .mp3 files. I know they aren't actually .mp3 files, but that allows Hotmail and Gmail to play them in Preview. They don't work on iPhone though, unless they are sent as .m4a files instead which breaks the Outlook / Gmail Preview.
So I have thought of a different approach which is to attach as a .mp3 file but have an HTML link in the email body which allows the attached file to be downloaded and specifies a .m4a file name. Gmail / Outlook users can click the attachment directly whereas iPhone users can use the HTML link.
Issue
I can send an email using JavaMail with HTML in it including a link which should be pointing at the attached file to allow download of that file by the link. Clicking on the link in Gmail (Chrome on PC) gives a 404 page and iPhone just ignores my clicking on the link.
Below is the code in which I generate a multipart message and assign a CID to the attachment which I then try to access using the link in the html part. It feels like I am close, but maybe that is an illusion. I'd be massively grateful if someone could help me fix it or save me the pain if it isn't possible.

You need to create a multipart/related and set the main text part as the first body part.
We're trying to print barcodes from a web page to our Zebra printer.
I'm wondering if there's a way to print them using the printer's own font perhaps using web fonts or if I knew the font name used?
I have been trying to use php barcode generators, that basically generates images containing the barcode. I have in fact been trying this approach for a few days already, without success.
The problem is when I print them it's not readable by the scanners. I have tried to change the image resolution to match that of the printer (203dpi), also tried playing with the image size and formats, but the barcodes after printed still can't be scanned.
So does anybody have experience with this?
Printer: Zebra TLP 2844
Barcodes required per page:
01 Code39 horizontal (scanable only if printed at very specific size and browser)
01 Code128 vertical (still can't get it to work, print is always very blurry and won't get scanned)
===========
I've made a little bit of progress, I found out this printer supports EPL2 language, so I'm trying to use it to print out the barcodes.
First I needed to enable pass through mode, I did that on Printer Options > Advanced Setup > Miscellaneous.
Now I'm able to print barcodes impeccably using the printer's built-in font :D using this command:
ZPL:
B10,10,0,1,2,2,60,N,"TEXT-GOES-HERE"
:ZPL
But I can only print it from Notepad, I'm still unable to print this from a browser... It's probably a problem with LF being replaced with CR+LF...
How to overcome this problem??
===========
The label I'm trying to print actually has a bit of text before the barcode, with some html tables formatting it nicely. So I need to print this first, and in the middle I need to stick in a nice label and then add some more text.
So I can't use pure EPL2 to print the whole thing, I'm wondering if I can use some of both html + EPL2 + html to achieve my goal or is that not allowed?? =/
You are running into a few obstacles:
1) When you print through the OS installed printer driver, the printer driver is trying to take the data that is sent to it and (re)rasterize or scale it for the output device (the Zebra printer). Since the printer is a relatively low resolution at 203dpi, then it does not take too much for the scaling the print driver is having to do for it to loose some integrity in the quality of the barcode. This is why barcodes generated using the direct ZPL commands are much more reliable.
2) Due to the security that web browsers purposefully provide by not allowing access to the client computer, you cannot directly communicate with the client connected printer. This sandboxing is what helps to protect users from malware so that nefarious websites cannot do things like write files to the client machine or send output directly to devices such as printers. So you are not able to directly send the ZPL commands through the browser to the client connected printer.
However, there is a way to do what you describe. The steps necessary are typically only going to be useful if you have some degree of control over the client computer accessing the site that is trying to print to the Zebra printers. For example this is only going to be used by machines on your company network, or by clients who are willing to install a small application that you need to write. To do this, you will need to look at the following steps:
A) You need to make up your own custom MIME type. This is basically just any name you want to use that is not going to collide with any registered MIME types.
B) Next you will define a filename extension that will map to your custom MIME type. To do this, you typically will need to configure your web server (steps for this depend on what web server you are using) to allow the new MIME type you want to define and what file extension is used for these types of files.
C) Then on your web application, when you want to output the ZPL data, you write it to a file using a filename extension that is mapped to your new MIME type. Then once the file is generated, you can either provide an HTML link to it, or redirect the client browser to the file. You can test if your file is working correctly at this point by manually copying the file you created directly to the raw printer port.
D) Next you need to write a small application which can be installed on the client. When the application is installed, you need to have it register itself as a valid consuming application for your custom MIME type. If a browser detects that there is an installed application for a file of the specified MIME type, it simply writes the file to a temporary directory on the client machine and then attempts to launch the application of the same registered MIME type with the temporary file as a parameter to the application. Thus your application now just reads the file that the browser passed to it and then it attempts to dump it directly to the printer.
This is an overview of what you need to do in order to accomplish what you are describing. Some of the specific steps will depend on what type of web server you are using and what OS your clients machines are. But this is the high level overview that will let you accomplish what you are attempting.
If you'd consider loading a java applet, qz-print (previously jzebra) can do exactly what you are describing and works nicely with the LP2844 mentioned in the comments.
https://code.google.com/p/jzebra/
What we did for our web app :
1) Download the free printfile app http://www.lerup.com/printfile/
"PrintFile is a freeware MS Windows utility program that will enable you to print files fast and easily. The program recognizes plain text, PostScript, Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) and binary formats. Using this program can save you a lot of paper and thereby also saving valuable natural resources."
When you first run PrintFile, go into the advanced options and enable "send to printer directly".
2) Setup the ZEBRA printer in windows as a Generic Text Printer.
2) Generate a file.prt file in the web app which is just a plain text EPL file.
3) Double clicking on the downloaded file will instantly print the barcode. Works like a charm. You can even setup PrintFile so that you don't even see a gui.
I am using QZ Tray to print labels from a web page to Zebra thermal printer.
In the demo/js folder of QZ Tray there are three JavaScript files that are required to communicate with QZ Tray application - dependencies/rsvp-3.1.0.min.js, dependencies/sha-256.min.js and qz-tray.js.
Include these JavaScript files in your project as follows:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lib/qz-tray/rsvp-3.1.0.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lib/qz-tray/sha-256.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lib/qz-tray/qz-tray.js"></script>
The most simple way to print a label to Zebra thermal printer is shown below.
<script type="text/javascript">
qz.websocket.connect().then(function() {
// Pass the printer name into the next Promise
return qz.printers.find("zebra");
}).then(function(printer) {
// Create a default config for the found printer
var config = qz.configs.create(printer);
// Raw ZPL
var data = ['^XA^FO50,50^ADN,36,20^FDRAW ZPL EXAMPLE^FS^XZ'];
return qz.print(config, data);
}).catch(function(e) { console.error(e); });
</script>
See How to print labels from a web page to Zebra thermal printer for more information.
You can also send the ZPL commands in a text file (you can pack multiple labels in a single file) and have the user open and print the file via windows notepad. The only caveat is that they have to remove the default header and footer (File --> Page Setup).
Its a bit of user training, but may be acceptable if you don't have control over the client machines.
I'm developing something similar here.
I need to print in a LP2844 from my webapp. The problem is that my webapp is in a remote server in the cloud (Amazon EC2) and the printer is going to be in a warehouse desk.
My solution:
The webapp generates the EPL2 code for the label with the barcodes, then publish a PubNub message.
I wrote a little C# program that runs in the computer where the printer is connected. The program receives the message and then send the code to the printer.
I followed the idea proposed by "Tres Finocchiaro" on my application based on:
ASP.NET 4.0
IIS
Chrome, IExplorer, Firefox
Zebra TLP 2844
EPL protocolo
Unfortunatly the jzebra needs some improvements to work corectly due to the issues of security of current browser.

Note: This Error displaying first "javax.microedition.media.MediaException: There is already another active Player. Call Player.close() on the existing Player to free up the resources." and camera gets open and when i try to take picture this error displays "Error Class Java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 0>=0"
After _videoControl.getSnapshot( encoding ) has been called you need to close player (i.e. to call player.close(). And that's exactly what the exception tells about.
However this method of taking images is highly unreliable - you'll not be able to use it for every BB device model. I don't know why RIM put it in SDK samples. By doing that RIM pushes developers to a wrong way. As alishaik786 mentiones a proper method of taking images on BB is using Invoke.invokeApplication(Invoke.APP_TYPE_CAMERA, new CameraArguments()) with a FileSystemJournalListener implementation. Just search on StackOverflow on these for the implementation details. I vaguely recall the implementation is painful (like many other parts on BB), but once done it will work on any device.
you got two error
1."javax.microedition.media.MediaException: There is already another active Player. Call Player.close()
this exception thrown if you try to open camera (player) while another instance of camera is already opened. In your code, you need to define the player object as a class level and must close the player after taking the snapshot (also need to close the player if you push from one screen to another).
2."Error Class Java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 0>=0"
This error may occur when you access encoding array while encoding array size is zero.
You can ensure this issue by using _videoControl.getSnapshot( null), which take the snapshot in default encoding.
So first insure these issue and reply me.
