Feature ideas 💡✨ about minisim

[okwasniewski]

Hey @dutradotdev,

Thanks for your input! I'm not sure if it is possible to show logs for iOS app without opening Xcode. Could you provide some examples of that? I think that adding option to launch logcat is great 👍🏻

Also, it would be very useful if you could provide an example of filtering logs (for both platforms).

[dutradotdev]

you can use this to check iOS device logs

brew install libimobiledevice
idevice_id --list // list available device UDIDs
idevicesyslog -u <device udid>

feature request: Wipe data for each android emulator

Hey @ameer-taghavi,

You can achieve this by creating a custom command by going to Preferences > Custom Commands.

Here is the custom command you can paste: $android_home_path/emulator/emulator @$device_name -wipe-data

I would like to share some ideas too:

• Show logs for iOS apps and logcat for android apps (sometimes you just want to check native logs but you don't want to open android studio or xcode)
• Filter logs for both platforms (it is really bad to filter logs using grep and etc)

could you add supporting scrcpy feature ?

@phucynwa Thanks for the suggestion but I want to keep MiniSim focused only on emulators. Therefore I won't add it, at least for now.

@okwasniewski I don't know how to do this for iOS, for android you need to exec adb logcat and filter by tag (probably using regexes)

It would be nice if was possible open the command below in terminal

adb logcat -v color

In this menu:

It could be an option named like Open logcat

Hey @mrcsxsiq, thanks for proposing a new feature!

Starting with version 0.6.0 you can create your own custom commands! You can achieve this by creating a new command and pasting this apple script:

osascript -e 'tell app "Terminal"
    do script "adb logcat -v color"
end tell'
