Tasker and ADB commands
AIO Launcher 2.7.0 introduced support for controlling launcher from other applications (for example, Tasker) and ADB. To enable this feature, open the Tasker section in the AIO settings.
It works like this: you send a broadcast intent with action ru.execbit.aiolauncher.COMMAND
and the extra cmd
var with command. For example, to open the application menu using ADB, do this:
adb shell am broadcast -a ru.execbit.aiolauncher.COMMAND --es cmd apps_menu
The same with Tasker (System - Send intent):
The following commands are available:
apps_menu:[style_or_script_name]
screen_off
screen_off_root
refresh
notify
search
dialer
camera
flashlight
voice
headers
fold
unfold
scroll_up
scroll_down
scroll_up_or_search
shortcuts
one_handed
add_note:[text]
add_task:[text]:[YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM]
add_purchase:[amount][currency]:[comment]
private_mode
settings
ui_settings
quick_menu
theme:<name>
save_profile:<name>
restore_profile:<name>
iconpack:<package_name>
add_widget:<name>:[position]
remove_widget:<position>
Also, you can use the command interface to launch applications. Use a command in the following format:
cn:package.name/Activity.Name:PROFILE_ID
For example, to open the Settings app on the phone using ADB, execute the following console command:
adb shell am broadcast -a ru.execbit.aiolauncher.COMMAND --es cmd cn:com.android.settings/com.android.settings.MainSettings:0
The same command for Tasker:
cmd:cn:com.android.settings/com.android.settings.MainSettings:0
As you can see, 0 is the ID of the primary user. To get the package name and activity name of the desired app, you can use an app like Shortcut Maker.
To prevent third-party (malicious) applications from gaining the ability to control the launcher and write text to the widget, you can set a password to access the launcher. This password must be specified each time a command or text is sent:
adb shell am broadcast -a ru.execbit.aiolauncher.COMMAND --es cmd apps_menu --es password PASSWORD
AIO Launcher will send broadcast messages when certain events occur:
-
ru.execbit.aiolauncher.RESUMED
- when the user returns to the launcher; -
ru.execbit.aiolauncher.STOPPED
- when the user leaves the launcher; -
ru.execbit.aiolauncher.SEARCH_OPENED
- when the user opens the search window; -
ru.execbit.aiolauncher.SEARCH_CLOSED
- when the user closes the search window; -
ru.execbit.aiolauncher.DRAWER_OPENED
- when the user opens the side menu; -
ru.execbit.aiolauncher.DRAWER_CLOSED
- when the user closes the side menu; -
ru.execbit.aiolauncher.WIDGET_ADDED
- when the user adds a widget (extra "name" contains the widget name); -
ru.execbit.aiolauncher.WIDGET_REMOVED
- when the user removes a widget (extra "name" contains the widget name).
