Android Virtual Device: Accessing NanoHTTPD from hostsystem

Question

I used NanoHTTPD for my android application.

During the development I am running the app on an AVD. Is there a way to accessing the web service from my host system? What´s the IP address of the AVD?

Answer 1

Use adb forward .

For example, if your NanoHTTPD listens to port 80 on AVD, run

adb forward tcp:20001 tcp:80

then you can connect to localhost:20001 on the host machine to access the server.
