Android控制台命令am简介

Android在shell中提供了am命令来发送Intent,它的源码为位于frameworks/base/cmds/am.

它本身是用JAVA代码来实现的。

执行am命令其实是通过运行shell脚本frameworks/base/cmds/am/am，然后在该脚本中运行app_process命令来启动am这个java程序的。

frameworks/base/cmds/am/am脚本文件如下：

# Script to start "am" on the device, which has a very rudimentary
# shell.
#
base=/system
export CLASSPATH=$base/framework/am.jar
exec app_process $base/bin com.android.commands.am.Am "$@"

am命令语法如下

usage:am[subcommand] [options]

start an Activity: am start [-D] [-W] <INTENT>

-D: enable debugging

-W: wait for launch to complete

start a Service: am startservice <INTENT>

send a broadcast Intent: am broadcast <INTENT>

start an Instrumentation: am instrument [flags] <COMPONENT>

-r: print raw results (otherwise decode REPORT_KEY_STREAMRESULT)

-e <NAME> <VALUE>: set argument <NAME> to <VALUE>

-p <FILE>: write profiling data to <FILE>

-w: wait for instrumentation to finish before returning

start profiling: am profile <PROCESS> start <FILE>

stop profiling: am profile <PROCESS> stop

start monitoring: am monitor [--gdb <port>]

--gdb: start gdbserv on the given port at crash/ANR

<INTENT> specifications include these flags:

[-a <ACTION>] [-d <DATA_URI>] [-t <MIME_TYPE>]

[-c <CATEGORY> [-c <CATEGORY>] ...]

[-e|--es <EXTRA_KEY> <EXTRA_STRING_VALUE> ...]

[--esn <EXTRA_KEY> ...]

[--ez <EXTRA_KEY> <EXTRA_BOOLEAN_VALUE> ...]

[-e|--ei <EXTRA_KEY> <EXTRA_INT_VALUE> ...]

[-n <COMPONENT>] [-f <FLAGS>]
