Some simple ADB scripts that let you push a website URL to mobile browsers.

Device URL Push Scripts

Abstract

These scripts were created to allow you to push a website URL to Chrome on Android and Silk on Amazon Fire tablets.

Usage

Push to Chrome on Android

1. cd into the directory that contains the url2android.sh script
2. Run ./url2android.sh google.com in your favorite terminal application

Make sure your device's screen is on and you should see Google Chrome open automatically with the website you specified. To open new tabs, use the steps outlined above with your desired URLs.

Push to Silk on Amazon Fire:

1. cd into the directory that contains url2silk.sh script
2. Run ./url2silk.sh in your favorite terminal application

To make either of these scripts, move them into your /usr/local/bin directory. After you've done this, you should be able to run them as simply url2silk or url2android.
