s2a

s2a is a simple Bash script that lets you quickly send images from your PC to an Android device or emulator. It works with single images or entire directories and automatically triggers a media scan on the device so images appear immediately.

Features

• Push a single image or multiple images from a folder
• Automatically triggers Android media scan
• Works with both physical devices and emulators via adb

Requirements

• Bash (Linux, macOS, or WSL on Windows)
• ADB (Android Debug Bridge) installed and in your PATH
• Android device or emulator connected

Installation

You can install s2a easily using the included setup script.

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/sunbyte/s2a.git
cd s2a

2. Run the setup script:

chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh

After this, you can run s2a from anywhere.

Usage

Send a single image:

s2a /path/to/image.jpg

Send all images in a directory:

s2a /path/to/images_directory

• Images are sent to /sdcard/Pictures/ on your Android device
• The script automatically triggers a media scan so the images appear in the gallery immediately

Example

# Send a single image
s2a ~/Pictures/photo.png

# Send an entire folder
s2a ~/Downloads/Images
