IOError: RPC server not started!

[CrystalChen1017]

Something wrong when I try to connect device,.

    from uiautomator import Device
    d = Device()
    print d.info

But I got IOError. I am using window OS. Does it works on windows?

except Exception,e: d.info #try 1/2

@onlinesen I don't know how adding a try/except block can solve anything here.

@CrystalChen1017 Seems you didn't read documentation at all. To use the uiautomator class without set the serial, you need to import lie from uiautomator import device as d then just print(d.info). But, to do that, your first need to set the ANDROID_SERIAL env variable. I don't really know why there's no subprocess mechanism to get default ID from adb devices command.

I've tried it both via cable and wifi adb and worked with no problem.
