Dumpey is a simple Python script that helps you

• pull any installed APK
• stop and clear data of any package
• do a memory dump
• create a series of snapshots
• run the monkey stress test and extract memory dumps before and/or after it
• install and uninstall multiple packages
• list installed packages

on all attached devices, or just the ones you specify. Most commands can be executed with a specific package name or a regex.

Dumpey expects Android platform tools to be part of the system path. Currently supports Python 2.7 - 3.3, inclusive.

Get it with

pip install dumpey

Examples

If a command is executed with a regex and multiple packages are found, Dumpey will warn you, but won't do anything unless you explicitly specify the -f or --force flag. To cherry pick devices, specify serials with a -s or --serials flag.

$ dumpey a -r youtube

will download the Youtube APK to current working directory. Flag -r denotes a regex string.

$ dumpey i -o /my/dir

will install every APK it finds in the /my/dir directory. You can use -r or --recursive flag to install APKs from subdirectories, too.

$ dumpey h -r youtube

will create a converted hprof file in your current working directory. Just open it with MAT.

$ dumpey u -p com.google.android.youtube

will uninstall the Youtube app from all attached devices.

$ dumpey r -s 32041cce74b52267

will reboot the device with serial number 32041cce74b52267.

$ dumpey c -f -r google

will force stop and clear all the data from each package that includes a 'google' string.

$ dumpey m -p com.google.android.youtube --dump ba

will create a hprof file with a memory dump from the Youtube app. It'll then do a monkey stress test. After monkey is done, another hprof file with a memory dump after the monkey is created. All you have to do is open them in MAT and compare. ba denotes before and after

But wait, there's more!

Here's the list of all Dumpey commands:

usage: dumpey.py [-h] {i,u,a,c,r,h,l,m,s} ...

Dumpey, an Android Debug Bridge utility tool.

dumpey commands:
  {i,u,a,c,r,h,l,m,s}  commands
    i                  install APKs from path
    u                  uninstall apps
    a                  download APKs
    c                  stop and clear package data
    r                  reboot devices
    h                  do a heap dump
    l                  list installed packages
    m                  run the monkey
    s                  make snapshot

each command accepts a -h or --help flag which'll tell you the various ways to use Dumpey.

Dumpey can also serve as a library, since it enables you to interact with the ADB, with some of the plumbing taken care of.
