Is it still there? Can't find Analysis under Edit->Preferences

 

Android Logcat doesn't show anything when connected to an LG6 device running Android 8.0.0. I enabled USB debugging on the device and authorized the PC to connect to it. Any suggestions?

 

Yes, the package is installed. I'm using it. And Android is selected:


No Analysis in Preferences:


I restarted Unity a couple of times, but that didn't help.

 

I agree that it has to be an adb problem. I'm have logcat working fine with another phone on the same computer. The LG phone doesn't show anything even when I use adb logcat from command line. I know that it's not a connection issue because I can install .apk files via adb.

 

Yes, I can spawn terminal manually, I'm on MacOS Catalina 10.15.2

 

Hello!
Just installed Unity 2019.3.0f6
Started new project and switched build target to Android
Installed Android Logcat 1.0.0 via package manager
Connected my device via USB (usb debugging enabled)
Opened Logcat window but it tells me that no device connected

When I try to select device from dropdown list I get an error in console
Though I have adb installed and it works correct long time ago.
CMD:

Android Monitor:


Any suggestions? Tried to reinstall USB driver, restart Unity

 

I fixed it with unchecking these checkboxes in Edit =>Preferences => External Tools

Now everything works as i should! Thanks

 

Hey Tomas, did you get a chance to test the Open Terminal button on MacOS Catalina?

 

That made it, my Terminal path is slightly different:

/System/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app/Contents/MacOS/Terminal

 

Hey Tomas,

This MacOS path issue will be fixed on next update? We have a lot of projects and would be to fix these manually. This package is very useful for us! Thank you!

 

With the latest Unity 2019.3.13 and Logcat 1.1 or 1.2 I cannot see the messages anymore.
I can see everything <Time,PID,Tid, Priority, Tag> but the message field is blank.
It happened before but I was able to get it working by enabling and disabling regex button, but now the fix doesn't work anymore.

 

Now it restarted working on its own, don't know what changed.
The device is an Asus zephone 3 Ultra with Android 7.0.
If it reappear I'll try to copy the log.

 

It happened again.

 

I also found out the package tend to stall and slow down the application when switching scenes after a while,

Yes, "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" is actually the package name censored since it's not released yet I don't want to divulge the name.

 

Ok, I have to wait that it happens again, cause right now it restarted working on its own.

 

I love the logcat window so far. It has been very helpful.

I've been building a customized build & management tool for our project and was wondering, if I could use the adb calls asynchronously for my own purposes. The ADB class API is publically available, it has the

GetInstance

and

Run

methods. However the

Run

method is synchronous. So using that will freeze it up for a few seconds when it is starting the ADB server.
Is there or will there be public API available to run adb commands asynchronously and getting the results back when it is done?

I'm using the ADB class to fetch my own device list to select a device and install / reinstall a selected apk file. Also made a packages list so I can easily uninstall apps from the target device.

I could create the API myself but if Unity already has it available in the Logcat package it wouldn't make sense to not use it of course. But I can't find out how to run it async with the current public API.

 

I've looked into it and it all seems to be either private or internal. The QueryDevicesAsync does indeed call the Run method. But the method itself is not async. It seems to be called asynchronous through a "Dispatcher" which runs the Action on a Thread. It is quite a complex setup to read through.
I was actually hoping to just have a RunAsync method and let the internal Dispatcher do its job.

But I guess I could run a thread then call the Run method then get back to the main thread to handle the result.

Task.Run(() => devices = adb.Run(new[] { "devices" }, string.empty));

 

You can try my code, taken from Unity answers and adapted to install and run apk, cause I think it's crazy that in 2020 I had to rebuild the apk just to test a new device.
For my project I also did an editor gui with some checkboxes to select the action to perform after the build, install and run.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.     public static void ExecuteCommandAsync(string executable, string argument, System.Action onEnd = null)
3.     {
4.         var thread = new System.Threading.Thread(delegate () { ExecuteCommand(executable,argument,  onEnd ); });
5.         thread.Start();
6.     }
7.     public static void ExecuteCommand(string executable,string argument, System.Action onEnd=null)
8.     {

14.             System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(executable)
15.             {
16.                 WorkingDirectory = "/",
17.                 UseShellExecute = false,
18.                 RedirectStandardOutput = true,
19.                 RedirectStandardError=true
20.             };
21.             System.Diagnostics.Process myProcess = new System.Diagnostics.Process
22.             {
23.                 StartInfo = startInfo
24.             };
25.             myProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = argument;
26.             myProcess.Start();
27.             string output = myProcess.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
28.             string error = myProcess.StandardError.ReadToEnd();
29.            
30.             UnityEngine.Debug.Log($"Result for {executable} { argument} is : \n{output}");
31.             if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(error))  UnityEngine.Debug.LogError($"Error for {executable} { argument} is : \n{error}");
32.             myProcess.WaitForExit();
33.             UnityEngine.Debug.Log("============== End ===============");
34.             if (onEnd!=null) onEnd();
35.         }
36.         catch (System.Exception e)
37.         {
38.             UnityEngine.Debug.Log(e);
39.         }
40.     }
41.     void RunPlayer(string AppID)
42.     {
43.        
44.         string args = $" shell monkey -p {AppID} -c android.intent.category.LAUNCHER 1";
45.         ExecuteCommandAsync("adb", args);
46.  
47.     }
48.  
49.     void InstallPlayer(bool RunToo=false)
50.     {
51.         string AppID = Application.identifier;
52.  
53. #if UNITY_ANDROID
54.         char Separator ='/';
55.         //string Extension = ".apk";
56. #else
57.         char Separator ='/';
58.         string Extension = ".apk"; //Need to change for IOS, haven't worked on it yet.
59. #endif
60.  
61.         string ProjectPath = Application.dataPath.Substring(0, Application.dataPath.LastIndexOf(Separator));
62.         string PlayerPath= ProjectPath + Separator + PlayerName;
63.  
64.         ExecuteCommandAsync("adb", "install -r -d " + PlayerPath,
65.             ()=>
66.             {
67.                 if(RunToo)
68.                 RunPlayer(AppID);
69.             });
70.        
71.  
72.  
73.  
74.     }

 

Yeah well I went with Task.Run and run the method to call ADB asynchronously (such as refreshing device list, package list etc).
I've got my own Editor UI now set up to be able to select an android device and install, uninstall and run applications on that selected device. Even built in to connect with it wirelessly. It's not perfect but it does smoothen the experience of managing things via Unity.

 

Tiny UX request. When I highlight a line in the logcat window, I'd love to be able to use up / down arrows to navigate to the next / previous line

 

Thanks for providing the Android Logcat package, I use it a lot!

One issue though: Why are the settings stored within the ProjectSettings folder? This is causing a lot of version control noise when used by our team:



I don't want our developers fighting over the size of their windows in source control.

Would it make sense to move this file into a per-user directory such as UserSettings? I believe so because nothing in there looks like something I want to share with others. But if there were such properties, I'd like the files to split into project and user settings.

 

Thanks for the update! One question, do you have on the roadmap that when running an application X times, you always have to select the "running" version again, it doesn't pick it up automatically? It's stuck on "exited" processes all the time, which is pretty annoying if you're waiting for logs to come in.

 

When the app crashes and you don't re-start it yourself it shouldn't be a problem right?
but upon booting a unity app that can be debugged it might be nice to have it automatically select it.
if people don't want this behaviour, a simple toggle in settings would suffice I'd say.

 

I agree - but the point here is "might", whereas you're "nearly always" interested in the logs from the build you just made. If I want to check crash logs of a previous run then that should be a dedicated action, whereas right now it's pretty annoying (and I forget it all the time) that I have to manually select the current run after pressing "Build & Run". Especially for logs at startup having to select it manually means I'm missing these in some cases.

 

Yep, that's what I meant - if you do Build & Run, the first time it autoconnects, if you then e.g. quit the app and do Build & Run again it's stuck at the "old" log. (Same if you just Build & Run without quitting manually)

 

Hello! Im just here to report a possible bug on the Android Logcat v 1.2.0 (the one present on 2019.4.20f). I dont know what might be causing this, but the logcat (when activated) causes constant big frame spikes on the android phone which renders many games unplayable. I think it might be the new Heap Allocation feature that i haven't seen in 1.1 (dont know when it was added).

The phone was a Huawei P Smart, not very high end admitedly. Still its something that happens that didnt happen before 1.2.0.

 

Updating to 1.2.1 seemed to fix it. Thanks! I thought 1.2.0 was the latest version...

 

In Unity 2020.3.0f1 using Android Logcat 1.2.1 "Verified" package, I get no logcat logs when running logcat (with no filter of course). I am using a Sony Xperia XZ3 with Android 10

If I roll back to 1.2.0 version, logcat works fine again

With 1.2.1 package, the log output is this then nothing else after:
