AccessibilityNodeInfo


open class AccessibilityNodeInfo : Parcelable
kotlin.Any
   ↳ android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfo

This class represents a node of the window content as well as actions that can be requested from its source. From the point of view of an android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService a window's content is presented as a tree of accessibility node infos, which may or may not map one-to-one to the view hierarchy. In other words, a custom view is free to report itself as a tree of accessibility node info.

Once an accessibility node info is delivered to an accessibility service it is made immutable and calling a state mutation method generates an error. See setQueryFromAppProcessEnabled if you would like to inspect the node tree from the app process for testing or debugging tools.

Please refer to android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService for details about how to obtain a handle to window content as a tree of accessibility node info as well as details about the security model.

Note: Use a androidx.core.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfoCompat wrapper instead of this class for backwards-compatibility.

addAction

Added in API level 21
open fun addAction(action: AccessibilityNodeInfo.AccessibilityAction!): Unit

Adds an action that can be performed on the node.

To add a standard action use the static constants on AccessibilityAction. To add a custom action create a new AccessibilityAction by passing in a resource id from your application as the action id and an optional label that describes the action. To override one of the standard actions use as the action id of a standard action id such as ACTION_CLICK and an optional label that describes the action.

Use androidx.core.view.ViewCompat#addAccessibilityAction(View, CharSequence, * AccessibilityViewCommand) to register an action directly on the view.

Note: Cannot be called from an android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService. This class is made immutable before being delivered to an AccessibilityService.

Parameters
action AccessibilityNodeInfo.AccessibilityAction!: The action.
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalStateException If called from an AccessibilityService.

addAction

Added in API level 14
Deprecated in API level 21
open fun addAction(action: Int): Unit

Deprecated: This has been deprecated for addAction(android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfo.AccessibilityAction)

Adds an action that can be performed on the node.

Note: Cannot be called from an android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService. This class is made immutable before being delivered to an AccessibilityService.

Parameters
action Int: The action.
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalStateException If called from an AccessibilityService.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException If the argument is not one of the standard actions.

addChild

Added in API level 14
open fun addChild(child: View!): Unit

Adds a child.

Note: Cannot be called from an android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService. This class is made immutable before being delivered to an AccessibilityService. Note that a view cannot be made its own child.

Parameters
child View!: The child.
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalStateException If called from an AccessibilityService.

addChild

Added in API level 16
open fun addChild(
    root: View!,
    virtualDescendantId: Int
): Unit

Adds a virtual child which is a descendant of the given root. If virtualDescendantId is View#NO_ID the root is added as a child.

A virtual descendant is an imaginary View that is reported as a part of the view hierarchy for accessibility purposes. This enables custom views that draw complex content to report them selves as a tree of virtual views, thus conveying their logical structure. Note that a view cannot be made its own child.

Parameters
root View!: The root of the virtual subtree.
virtualDescendantId Int: The id of the virtual child.

canOpenPopup

Added in API level 19
open fun canOpenPopup(): Boolean

Gets if this node opens a popup or a dialog.

Return
Int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either 0 or android.os.Parcelable#CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

equals

Added in API level 14
open fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

  • It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
  • It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
  • It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
  • It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
  • For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters
obj the reference object with which to compare.
object This value may be null.
Return
Boolean true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

findAccessibilityNodeInfosByText

Added in API level 14
open fun findAccessibilityNodeInfosByText(text: String!): MutableList<AccessibilityNodeInfo!>!

Finds AccessibilityNodeInfos by text. The match is case insensitive containment. The search is relative to this info i.e. this info is the root of the traversed tree.

Note: If this view hierarchy has a SurfaceView embedding another view hierarchy via SurfaceView#setChildSurfacePackage, there is a limitation that this API won't be able to find the node for the view on the embedded view hierarchy. It's because views don't know about the embedded hierarchies. Instead, you could traverse all the children to find the node.

Parameters
text String!: The searched text.
Return
MutableList<AccessibilityNodeInfo!>! A list of node info.

findAccessibilityNodeInfosByViewId

Added in API level 18
open fun findAccessibilityNodeInfosByViewId(viewId: String): MutableList<AccessibilityNodeInfo!>!

Finds AccessibilityNodeInfos by the fully qualified view id's resource name where a fully qualified id is of the from "package:id/id_resource_name". For example, if the target application's package is "foo.bar" and the id resource name is "baz", the fully qualified resource id is "foo.bar:id/baz".

Note: The primary usage of this API is for UI test automation and in order to report the fully qualified view id if an AccessibilityNodeInfo the client has to set the AccessibilityServiceInfo#FLAG_REPORT_VIEW_IDS flag when configuring the android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService.

Note: If this view hierarchy has a SurfaceView embedding another view hierarchy via SurfaceView#setChildSurfacePackage, there is a limitation that this API won't be able to find the node for the view on the embedded view hierarchy. It's because views don't know about the embedded hierarchies. Instead, you could traverse all the children to find the node.

Parameters
viewId String: The fully qualified resource name of the view id to find. This value cannot be null.
Return
MutableList<AccessibilityNodeInfo!>! A list of node info.

findFocus

Added in API level 16
open fun findFocus(focus: Int): AccessibilityNodeInfo!

Find the view that has the specified focus type. The search starts from the view represented by this node info.

Note: If this view hierarchy has a SurfaceView embedding another view hierarchy via SurfaceView#setChildSurfacePackage, there is a limitation that this API won't be able to find the node for the view on the embedded view hierarchy. It's because views don't know about the embedded hierarchies. Instead, you could traverse all the children to find the node. Or, use AccessibilityService#findFocus(int) for FOCUS_ACCESSIBILITY only since it has no such limitation.

Parameters
focus Int: The focus to find. One of FOCUS_INPUT or FOCUS_ACCESSIBILITY.
Return
AccessibilityNodeInfo! The node info of the focused view or null.

focusSearch

Added in API level 16
open fun focusSearch(direction: Int): AccessibilityNodeInfo!

Searches for the nearest view in the specified direction that can take the input focus.

Note: If this view hierarchy has a SurfaceView embedding another view hierarchy via SurfaceView#setChildSurfacePackage, there is a limitation that this API won't be able to find the node for the view in the specified direction on the embedded view hierarchy. It's because views don't know about the embedded hierarchies. Instead, you could traverse all the children to find the node.

Parameters
direction Int: The direction. Can be one of: View#FOCUS_DOWN, View#FOCUS_UP, View#FOCUS_LEFT, View#FOCUS_RIGHT, View#FOCUS_FORWARD, View#FOCUS_BACKWARD.
Return
AccessibilityNodeInfo! The node info for the view that can take accessibility focus.

Return
MutableList<String!>! An unmodifiable list of keys corresponding to extra data that can be requested.

getBoundsInParent

Added in API level 14
Deprecated in API level 29
open fun getBoundsInParent(outBounds: Rect!): Unit

Deprecated: Use getBoundsInScreen(android.graphics.Rect) instead.

Gets the node bounds in the viewParent's coordinates. getParent() does not represent the source's viewParent. Instead it represents the result of View#getParentForAccessibility(), which returns the closest ancestor where View#isImportantForAccessibility() is true. So this method is not reliable.

When magnification is enabled, the bounds in parent are also scaled up by magnification scale. For example, it returns Rect(20, 20, 200, 200) for original bounds Rect(10, 10, 100, 100), when the magnification scale is 2.

Parameters
outBounds Rect!: The output node bounds.

getBoundsInScreen

Added in API level 14
open fun getBoundsInScreen(outBounds: Rect!): Unit

Gets the node bounds in screen coordinates.

When magnification is enabled, the bounds in screen are scaled up by magnification scale and the positions are also adjusted according to the offset of magnification viewport. For example, it returns Rect(-180, -180, 0, 0) for original bounds Rect(10, 10, 100, 100), when the magnification scale is 2 and offsets for X and Y are both 200.

Parameters
outBounds Rect!: The output node bounds.

getBoundsInWindow

Added in API level 34
open fun getBoundsInWindow(outBounds: Rect): Unit

Gets the node bounds in window coordinates.

When magnification is enabled, the bounds in window are scaled up by magnification scale and the positions are also adjusted according to the offset of magnification viewport. For example, it returns Rect(-180, -180, 0, 0) for original bounds Rect(10, 10, 100, 100), when the magnification scale is 2 and offsets for X and Y are both 200.

Parameters

open fun getParent(prefetchingStrategy: Int): AccessibilityNodeInfo?

Gets the parent.

Use prefetchingStrategy to determine the types of nodes prefetched from the app if the requested node is not in the cache and must be retrieved by the app. The default strategy for getParent() is a combination of ancestor and sibling strategies. The app will prefetch until all nodes fulfilling the strategies are fetched, another node request is sent, or the maximum prefetch batch size of MAX_NUMBER_OF_PREFETCHED_NODES nodes is reached. To prevent interruption by another request and to force prefetching of the max batch size, use AccessibilityNodeInfo#FLAG_PREFETCH_UNINTERRUPTIBLE.

Parameters
prefetchingStrategy Int: the prefetching strategy. Value is either 0 or a combination of android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfo#FLAG_PREFETCH_ANCESTORS, android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfo#FLAG_PREFETCH_SIBLINGS, android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfo#FLAG_PREFETCH_DESCENDANTS_HYBRID, android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfo#FLAG_PREFETCH_DESCENDANTS_DEPTH_FIRST, android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfo#FLAG_PREFETCH_DESCENDANTS_BREADTH_FIRST, and android.view.accessibility.AccessibilityNodeInfo#FLAG_PREFETCH_UNINTERRUPTIBLE

Get the state description of this node.

Return
CharSequence? the state description This value may be null.

getText

Added in API level 14
open fun getText(): CharSequence!

Gets the text of this node.

Note: If the text contains ClickableSpans or URLSpans, these spans will have been replaced with ones whose ClickableSpan#onClick(View) can be called from an AccessibilityService. When called from a service, the View argument is ignored and the corresponding span will be found on the view that this AccessibilityNodeInfo represents and called with that view as its argument.

This treatment of ClickableSpans means that the text returned from this method may different slightly one passed to setText(java.lang.CharSequence), although they will be equivalent according to TextUtils#equals(CharSequence, CharSequence). The ClickableSpan#onClick(View) of any spans, however, will generally not work outside of an accessibility service.

Return
CharSequence! The text.

  • check properties of this node (example: isScrollable())
  • find and query children (example: getChild(int))
  • find and query the parent (example: getParent())
  • find focus (examples: findFocus(int), focusSearch(int))
  • find and query other nodes (example: findAccessibilityNodeInfosByText(java.lang.String), findAccessibilityNodeInfosByViewId(java.lang.String))
  • perform actions (example: performAction(int))
  • This is intended for short-lived inspections from testing or debugging tools in the app process, as operations on this node tree will only succeed as long as the associated view hierarchy remains attached to a window. AccessibilityNodeInfo objects can quickly become out of sync with their corresponding View objects; if you wish to inspect a changed or different view hierarchy then create a new node from any view in that hierarchy and call this method on that new node, instead of disabling & re-enabling the connection on the previous node.

    Parameters
    view View: The view that generated this node, or any view in the same view-root hierarchy. This value cannot be null.
    enabled Boolean: Whether to enable (true) or disable (false) querying from the app process.
    Exceptions
    java.lang.IllegalStateException If called from an AccessibilityService, or if provided a View that is not attached to a window.
