Module appium_client::capabilities::empty

Empty capabilities (for creating a blank client)

A blank client is an appium client that is not tied to any specific driver (or a driver not supported by this lib). You can use EmptyCapabilities to manually set any capability and create a featureless Appium client.

Such featureless Appium client has a basic feature of crate::find, but any other feature has to be implemented by using crate::commands::AppiumCommand::Custom.

You can use a featureless client to use any Appium driver not currently supported by this lib (other than Android and iOS). Upside: you can use this lib. Downside: no features (yet).

capabilities.automation_name(ANDROID_UIAUTOMATOR2);

let client = ClientBuilder::native(capabilities)
   .connect("http://localhost:4723/wd/hub/")
   .await?;

// find works out of the box
let element = client.find_by(By::Id("elementId".to_string())).await?;

// any other feature must be implemented by issuing a custom command
// for example, this is a command used to set geolocation on Android
