# avd plugin The avd plugin provides aliases for Android Virtual Device / Android Emulator commands. To use it, add avd to the plugins array of your zshrc file: ```zsh plugins=(... avd) ``` ## Requirements In order to make this work, you will need to have the Android `emulator` tool set up in your path. This plugin will try to find that tool in `$ANDROID_HOME` as a last resort, however it will make it slower and may not work as expected. ## Functions - `avds` - Lists all the AVDs - `avd [-v] ` - Launches n-th AVD from the AVDs list printed by `avds` - `-v` will let stdout and stderr print to the console which is disabled by default to avoid the clutter - `find_emulator` - Tries to find the `emulator` tool either in your path or `$ANDROID_HOME` directory ## Aliases - `emus` - Same as `avds` - `emu [-v] ` - Same as `avd [-v] ` ## Exemplary usage: ``` ~/ > avds Pixel_2_API_30 Samsung_Tab_A_2019_API_25 Samsung_Tab_A_2019_API_29 ~/ > avd 2 Starting emulator: Samsung_Tab_A_2019_API_25 [3] 33463 ```
