The Android Studio version is later than 3.2. The Android Device Monitor tool cannot be found

Update to the latest version of AndroidStudio (>3.2) DDMS [Android Device Monitor] can not be found. DDMS [Android Device Monitor] can only be found in SDK directory. So I wrote a plug-in to quickly launch the Android Device Monitor

Source code and use

Development tool: IntelliJ IDEA

Github address: https://github.com/hi-dhl/DeviceMonitorPlugin

The plug-in download address: https://github.com/hi-dhl/DeviceMonitorPlugin/releases/download/1.0/DeviceMonitorPlugin.jar

Installation method:

• Open the AndroidStudio
• Select Preference -> Plugins-> Install plugin from disk
• Select the downloaded plugin [DevicemonitorPlugin.jar] -> restart AndroidStudio

How to start:

• Open the AndroidStudio
• Menu bar Tools -> Click DeviceMonitor

PS: Although Google has deleted the AdnroidStudio startup entry, the local SDK still exists. The plug-in dynamically obtains the local SDK path to start AndroidDeviceMonitor. Due to different computer performance, the startup speed will be different

Why did Google drop Android Device Monitor

Android Developers official website of the original link

Android Device Monitor is an Android application debugging and analysis tool that provides a UI tool, but most components have been deprecated in Android Studio 3.1 and will be removed in Android Studio 3.2. New tools to help developers debug and analyze Android apps are available here

Plug-in core code

public class Monitor extends AnAction {

    @Override
    public void actionPerformed(AnActionEvent anActionEvent) {

        try {

            Project project = anActionEvent.getData(PlatformDataKeys.PROJECT);

            String os = AndroidUtils.getPlatformName();
            String sdkPath = AndroidUtils.getApkLocalProperties(project);
            if (os.toLowerCase().startsWith("win")) {
                sdkPath += File.separator + "tools" + File.separator + "monitor.bat";
            } else {
                sdkPath += File.separator + "tools" + File.separator + "monitor";
            }

            Runtime.getRuntime().exec(sdkPath);
        } catch (Exception e) {

        }

    }
}
Copy the code

/** * Dynamically obtain the path of the local Android SDK ** @param project * @return
 */
public static String getApkLocalProperties(Project project) {

    String sdkPath = "";

    try {

        String path = project.getBasePath() + File.separator + "local.properties";

        Properties properties = new Properties();
        InputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(path);
        properties.load(inputStream);

        sdkPath = properties.getProperty("sdk.dir");
    } catch (Exception e) {

    }
    return sdkPath;
}
Copy the code
