📦 Installation

📦 From PyPI (Recommended)

pip install android-device-manager

🚧 From Source

git clone https://github.com/jwoirhaye/python-android-avd-manager-python.git
cd python-android-avd-manager
pip install -e .

⚡ Quickstart

With everything set up, here’s the simplest way to create and run an emulator:

from android_device_manager import AndroidDevice , AndroidProp
from android_device_manager.avd import AVDConfiguration
from android_device_manager.emulator import EmulatorConfiguration

# Define AVD configuration
avd_config = AVDConfiguration(
    name="quickstart_avd",
    package="system-images;android-34;google_apis;x86_64"
)

# Define Emulator configuration
emulator_config = EmulatorConfiguration(
    no_window=True  # Run emulator in headless mode
)

# Create and run the device using context manager
with AndroidDevice(avd_config, emulator_config) as device:
    print(f"Device {device.name} is running!")
    print("Android Version:", device.get_prop(AndroidProp.ANDROID_VERSION))
    # Or
    #print("Android Version:", device.get_prop("ro.build.version.release"))
