Appium Client Installation (Python)

Recommended PIP Installation

    Pip Install Appium-python-client

Of course, you can also download the source code installed on the PIPY

    TAR-XVF appium-python-client-x.x.tar.gz (7zip can decompress on Windows)    CD appium-python-client-x.x    Python setup.py Install

Finally, it can also be installed via GitHub (to git client)

git clone [email protected]:appium/python-client.git    cd python-client    python setup.py install

Where I encountered a problem with the installation: Pip install appium-python-client times wrong unicodedecodeerror, the reason is related to the registry, It may be that some software's GBK format for the registry has caused Python to fail the installation of third-party libraries.
Workaround: Open the Python installation directory under Lib's mimetypes.py file to find

default_encoding = Sys.getdefaultencoding () Before this line is added

If sys.getdefaultencoding ()! = ' GBK ':
    Reload (SYS)
    Sys.setdefaultencoding (' GBK ')
