- AWS CLI
-
Note: this example uses the command-line tool curl to push the app to Device Farm.
First, create a project if you haven't already done so.
$ aws devicefarm create-project --name MyProjectName
This will show output such as the following:
{
"project": {
"name": "MyProjectName",
"arn": "arn:aws:devicefarm:us-west-2:123456789101:project:5e01a8c7-c861-4c0a-b1d5-12345EXAMPLE",
"created": 1535675814.414
}
}
Then, do the following to create your upload and push it to Device Farm. In this example, we'll be creating an Android app upload using a local APK file. For more upload type information, including details about iOS app upload types, please see our API documentation for creating an Upload.
$ export APP_PATH="/local/path/to/my_sample_app.apk"
$ export APP_TYPE="ANDROID_APP"
First, we create the upload in Device Farm:
$ aws devicefarm create-upload \
--project-arn "arn:aws:devicefarm:us-west-2:123456789101:project:5e01a8c7-c861-4c0a-b1d5-12345EXAMPLE" \
--name "$(basename "$APP_PATH")" \
--type "$APP_TYPE"
This will show output such as the following:
{
"upload": {
"arn": "arn:aws:devicefarm:us-west-2:385076942068:upload:490a6350-0ba3-43e5-83f5-d2896b069a34/a120e848-c57b-4e8d-a720-d750a0c4d936",
"name": "my_sample_app.apk",
"created": 1760747318.266,
"type": "ANDROID_APP",
"status": "INITIALIZED",
"url": "https://prod-us-west-2-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/arn%3Aaws%3Adevicefarm%3Aus-west-2...",
"category": "PRIVATE"
}
}
Then, do a PUT call using curl to push the app to Device Farm's S3 bucket:
$ curl -T "$APP_PATH" "https://prod-us-west-2-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/arn%3Aaws%3Adevicefarm%3Aus-west-2..."
Finally, wait for the app to be in "succeeded" status:
$ aws devicefarm get-upload --arn "arn:aws:devicefarm:us-west-2:385076942068:upload:490a6350-0ba3-43e5-83f5-d2896b069a34/a120e848-c57b-4e8d-a720-d750a0c4d936"
This will show output such as the following:
{
"upload": {
"arn": "arn:aws:devicefarm:us-west-2:385076942068:upload:490a6350-0ba3-43e5-83f5-d2896b069a34/a120e848-c57b-4e8d-a720-d750a0c4d936",
"name": "my_sample_app.apk",
"created": 1760747318.266,
"type": "ANDROID_APP",
"status": "SUCCEEDED",
"url": "https://prod-us-west-2-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/arn%3Aaws%3Adevicefarm%3Aus-west-2...",
"metadata": "{\"activity_name\":\"com.amazonaws.devicefarm.android.referenceapp.Activities.MainActivity\",\"package_name\":\"com.amazonaws.devicefarm.android.referenceapp\",...}",
"category": "PRIVATE"
}
}
- Python
-
Note: this example uses the third-party requests package to push the app to Device Farm, as well as the AWS SDK for Python boto3.
First, create a project if you haven't already done so.
import boto3
client = boto3.client("devicefarm", region_name="us-west-2")
resp = client.create_project(name="MyProjectName")
print(resp)
# Response will be something like:
# {
# "project": {
# "name": "MyProjectName",
# "arn": "arn:aws:devicefarm:us-west-2:123456789101:project:5e01a8c7-c861-4c0a-b1d5-12345EXAMPLE",
# "created": 1535675814.414
