Failed resolution of: Ljava/net/http/HttpClient;

LivPNavusoft commented 9 months ago

Description

Attempting to setup Appium in a KMM app, currently working on the Android side. Attempting to run a basic test results in the runtime error in the title when the AndroidDriver() is instantiated.

Environment

Kotlin 1.9.10
Java client 9.1.0
Selenium 4.17.0
Appium CLI v2.4.1
MacOS Ventura 13.5.2
Android API 34
Pixel 7 Emulator

Details

Please provide more details, if necessary.

Attempting to run the test always fails at driver = AndroidDriver(url, options) and results in the stack trace below. The missing library, java.net.http.HttpClient, doesn't appear to be available on Android.

None generated, it never connects. Verified I can start a session with AppiumInspector

This is probably something related to Kotlin and has nothing to do with this lib. Try https://github.com/ktorio/ktor/issues/1608

@mykola-mokhnach Hello! We do not make use of Ljava/net/http/HttpClient; anywhere in this project. The test code in the gist is the only code being ran, and is just boilerplate based on Appium Inspector's code for establishing a session connection. It appears to be called from AndroidDriver's instantiation

mykola-mokhnach commented 9 months ago

It does not really matter. java/net/http/HttpClient is the standard Java HTTP client implementation since JDK9 and is used by selenium to communicate with the remote server. Absence of it would make such communication impossible. A workaround would be to avoid the use of this lib and to build a custom client based on a different downstream implementation.

I may misunderstand, java/net/http/HttpClient is certainly the standard, but as far as I'm aware it has never been available in Android. How is the AndroidDriver typically set up to work around this?

mykola-mokhnach commented 9 months ago

I don't have an answer there. The client is designed to work on Linux/macOS or Windows host running OpenJDK 11+ runtime. We have never tested the compatibility to other environments (Selenium did not as well)

Hi! I also have exact same issue. Did you had any luck finding the answer by yourself?

LivPNavusoft commented 2 weeks ago

No, apologies as I was unaware this was still open. We decided to go with other frameworks/solutions

appium / java-client
