It is highly advised to setup a virtual environment to install Andriller and its dependencies in it. However, it is not essential, and the global environment can also be used. Depending on how Python was setup, it may be needed to substitute python and pip to python3 and pip3 retrospectively for the instructions below.

Windows only: when installing Python from https://www.python.org, make sure Add Python to PATH is ticked.

System Dependencies

• adb
• python3-tk

[Ubuntu/Debian] Install from Terminal:

$ sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb python3-tk

[Mac] Install from brew cask:

$ brew cask install android-platform-tools

[Windows] : Included.

Installation (Recommended way)

Create a virtual environment using Python 3:

$ python3 -m venv env

Activate the virtual environment:

$ source env/bin/activate

Install Andriller with its Python dependencies (same command to upgrade it):

(env) $ pip install andriller -U

Quick Start (run GUI)

(env) $ python -m andriller
