tramp and adb, strange escape codes in dired

Hello,

I'm using Emacs 26.3 and adb 7.1.2_r36 [1], both installed via Guix on a
foreign distro (Debian 10)

I'm trying to use adb via tramp (I'd love to be able to browse my phone
filesystem in Emacs) for the first time and I get a strange dired
buffer:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

  /adb::/storage:
  total 13
  drwxr-xr-x  1 root root          80 05-31 13:04 [1;34m.[0m
  drwxr-xr-x  1 root root          4k 2009-01-01  [1;34m..[0m
  drwx--x--x  1 root sdcard_rw     4k 05-31 13:04 [1;34memulated[0m
  drwxr-xr-x  1 root root          60 05-31 13:03 [1;34mself[0m
  drwxr-xr-x  1 root root          80 05-31 13:04 [1;34m/storage/.[0m
  drwxr-xr-x  1 root root          4k 2009-01-01  [1;34m/storage/..[0m

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

If I try to "dired-visit" any of the listed dirs I get this in the
*Messages* buffer:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

dired-get-file-for-visit: File no longer exists; type ‘g’ to update Dired buffer

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'm able to use "adb shell" in a shell buffer under Emacs, this is the
result:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

jflte:/storage # ls -lah
ls -lah
total 6.0K
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root        80 2020-05-31 13:04 .
drwxr-xr-x 22 root root      4.0K 2009-01-01 01:00 ..
drwx--x--x  3 root sdcard_rw 4.0K 2020-05-31 13:04 emulated
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root        60 2020-05-31 13:03 self
jflte:/storage # 

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and I can "navigate" all my folders via adb shell (in root mode).

Do you have any idea why I get this result?

Thanks! Gio'



[1] but I have the same results using adb 8.1.0+r23-5 version from
Debian stable

Dunno if that could be fixed in Tramp.  Michael?

As an alternative you can use "jmtpfs path/to/mountpoint" and avoid
Tramp.  That mounts the phone file system as an ordinary directory.
Unmounting works with "fusermount -u path/to/mountpoint".  Although I'm
quite ignorant about this phone stuff that worked for me in Debian out
of the box.

It's just to understand if it's a TRAMP bug or something related to my
environment.

Have someone in this list been able to browse via TRAMP+adb?

When I learned about being able to use TRAMP with adb I was excited

Thank you for this advice, I was not aware of jmtpfs; I need to connect
over wi-fi to my phone, so I eventually will try other tools (e.g. via
termux+openssh)

Happy hacking! Gio'

FWIW, this looks a lot like escape sequences setting the display to
bold (ESC[1;34m) before and resetting it (ESC[0m) after the file
name. 

I don't really know what there is at the other end, but convincing
it that you have a very dumb terminal might help.

Cheers

Tramp tries to find a proper `ls' command which suppresses escape
sequences. The following defun does it:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun tramp-adb-get-ls-command (vec)
  "Determine `ls' command and its arguments."
  (with-tramp-connection-property vec "ls"
    (tramp-message vec 5 "Finding a suitable `ls' command")
    (cond
     ;; Support Android derived systems where "ls" command is provided
     ;; by GNU Coreutils. Force "ls" to print one column and set
     ;; time-style to imitate other "ls" flavors.
     ((tramp-adb-send-command-and-check
       vec "ls --time-style=long-iso /dev/null")
      "ls -1 --time-style=long-iso")
     ;; Can't disable coloring explicitly for toybox ls command.  We
     ;; also must force "ls" to print just one column.
     ((tramp-adb-send-command-and-check vec "toybox") "ls -1")
     ;; On CyanogenMod based system BusyBox is used and "ls" output
     ;; coloring is enabled by default.  So we try to disable it when
     ;; possible.
     ((tramp-adb-send-command-and-check vec "ls --color=never -al /dev/null")
      "ls --color=never")
     (t "ls"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Obviously, in this case we need more. Giovanni, which Android version
are you running? And can you check via "adb shell", which kind of ls is
installed there?

(Personally, I run a Galaxy S6 with Android 7. I fear it is much too old
for local tests.)

Hi Michael,

thank you for your help.

Ha ha: now I'm staring to understand, thanks!

Is it more appropriate if I file a bug report? I can copy all the
relevant information from this thread to a proper bug report if this
helps.

Android 10 via LineageOS 17 on a Samsung Galaxy S4

Toybox, more info below, included tramp debug infos.

I'd be *very* happy to help testing, just tell me what I have to do.

With my Android version tramp uses "ls --color=never" and unfortunately
toybox output is coloured when the option "--color=never" is passed :-S

In my adb shell, "ls -1" give me no colours.

This is the ls command help in my toybox (in Emacs shell):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

jflte:/ # ls --help
ls --help
usage: ls [-ACFHLRSZacdfhiklmnpqrstux1] [--color[=auto]] [directory...]

List files.

what to show:
-a  all files including .hidden    -b  escape nongraphic chars
-c  use ctime for timestamps       -d  directory, not contents
-i  inode number                   -p  put a '/' after dir names
-q  unprintable chars as '?'       -s  storage used (1024 byte units)
-u  use access time for timestamps -A  list all files but . and ..
-H  follow command line symlinks   -L  follow symlinks
-R  recursively list in subdirs    -F  append /dir *exe @sym |FIFO
-Z  security context

output formats:
-1  list one file per line         -C  columns (sorted vertically)
-g  like -l but no owner           -h  human readable sizes
-l  long (show full details)       -m  comma separated
-n  like -l but numeric uid/gid    -o  like -l but no group
-x  columns (horizontal sort)      -ll long with nanoseconds (--full-time)
--color  device=yellow  symlink=turquoise/red  dir=blue  socket=purple
         files: exe=green  suid=red  suidfile=redback  stickydir=greenback
         =auto means detect if output is a tty.

sorting (default is alphabetical):
-f  unsorted    -r  reverse    -t  timestamp    -S  size

Yes, pls do if my following advice doesn't work.

That's also on my Galaxy.

Same here.

Same here. And since it is fixed for me in tramp-adb, there are good
chances we'll fix it also for you :-)

It looks to me like this is bug#30594 (https://debbugs.gnu.org/30594).
This bug has been fixed with Tramp 2.4, part of Emacs 27.1. So I
recommend you to install this Tramp version from GNU ELPA (Tramp
2.4.3.5 is the recent version).

Best regards, Michael.

I don't know what happened yestarday but I was sure I installed TRAMP
2.4.3.5 (via Guix, not GNU ELPA) but the first test I did after
restarting Emacs gave me the same results as before.

Anyway, today I was testing again and it works like a charm!

Thank you! Gio'

Sometimes, some old cache values are in the way. I recommend "M-x
tramp-cleanup-all-connections" in this case.
