react-native-owl not working on Android

[NM-2000]

Tried setting up React-Native-Owl on React-Native Project to capture screenshots on Android. It doesn't work!

Setup

• Setup owl.config.json as per the documentation.

{
    "android": {
      "packageName": "com.loki",
      "quiet": true
    },
    "debug": true,
    "report": true
  }

• npm run owl build -- --platform android - Works fine ✅
• npm run owl test -- --platform android - Fails ❌

Error

> loki@0.0.1 owl /Users/nikhilmittal/Desktop/Github/loki
> ./node_modules/react-native-owl/dist/cli/index.js "test" "--platform" "android"

Hi @NM-2000

Can I just check if you had an Android emulator running, or a debuggable Android device attached?
If so, please can you share the details so that we can attempt to replicate this issue?

Thanks

@robwalkerco I faced with this issue too and emulator is runned

---

When I run that command manually I see the next error:

date: cannot set date: Operation not permitted

[retyui]

Fix:

adb root # first
adb shell date 01010941 # now it won't fail

cc @NM-2000

[robwalkerco]

@retyui brilliant! Thanks for the fix! Would you like to create a small PR for this fix? (the tests will also need updating a little I think, if you add this additional command)

cc @manosim

[robwalkerco]

If you don't have chance to make a PR, then I'm sure either @manosim or I will be able to do it soon.

Actually @retyui @NM-2000, this issue is already fixed in the v1.0.0 RC yarn add react-native-owl@next. The full v1.0.0 should happen soon 😀
