Windows support?

[humazed]

I can only see getting started steps for mac and Linux.

Does maestro currently support windows? If not do you have a timeline for when we could expect to have windows support?

[dmitry-zaitsev]

Maestro does, in theory, support Windows as it purely a JVM application. However, we do not have means to test it at this very moment so any input would be much appreciated!

Hello, I'm on Windows and I can use maestro.

• Just download the latest release : https://github.com/mobile-dev-inc/maestro/releases
• Unzip it;
• with PowerShell :
  • cd to this directory
  • maestro test you_flow.yaml

Bonus steps to add maestro command alias in PowerShell

The maestro command will be available to each PowerShell session.

• Test-Path $Profile
  • if False, create profile file : New-Item -Path $Profile -ItemType file -Force
• Add in this file the alias so that it is persistent
• New-Alias maestro C:/full-path/maestro-1.4.0/bin/maestro.bat

If you have a java version error

• download a recent java version (Java 18 for example) : https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/jdk18-archive-downloads.html (Windows x64 Compressed Archive - so it's system independent)
• unzip it where you want
• with PowerShell (or in your previous profile file to make it persistent)

Enjoy !

To the Maestro team : Thank you for this promising tool !

Thank you @Colorofbest! I have included a part of your guide into our docs 👍

The docs on the website do not cover the alias part and as such, do not work.

Without setting the alias up on the machine, you need to do the following command:

.\maestro.bat test ...

I think the docs should be updated to reflect this.

@Colorofbest Hey, I have this error on Windows The input line is too long. The syntax of the command is incorrect. when I run .\maestro.bat --version. Don't you have this error now?

[Colorofbest]

The input line is too long. The syntax of the command is incorrect. Hello, yes I confirm I have the same error today (The input line is too long. The syntax of the command is incorrect. )

Windows cmd allow only 8191 characters :-/ (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/shell-experience/command-line-string-limitation)

To fix this, just open the bin/maestro.bat and replace all the CLASSPATH=[a lot of jar] With set CLASSPATH=%APP_HOME%\lib\* To include all jar without specifying one by one.

Looks better.
