It's possible to send broadcast to BroadcastReceiver
with adb
.
In this example we are sending broadcast with action com.test.app.ACTION
and string extra in bundle 'foo'='bar'
:
adb shell am broadcast -a action com.test.app.ACTION --es foo "bar"
You can put any other supported type to bundle, not only strings:
--ez - boolean
--ei - integer
--el - long
--ef - float
--eu - uri
--eia - int array (separated by ',')
--ela - long array (separated by ',')
--efa - float array (separated by ',')
--esa - string array (separated by ',')
To send intent to specific package/class -n
or -p
parameter can be used.
Sending to package:
-p com.test.app
Sending to a specific component (SomeReceiver
class in com.test.app package
):
-n com.test.app/.SomeReceiver
