How to get the health of the Android system in real time from the command line?

Question

I am writing a script containing several adb shell commands. I also want to record the time when the program executes this command in the form of real time and uptime. I know that I can get uptime in real time through SystemClock:

SystemClock.uptimeMillis(); SystemClock.elapsedRealtime(); 

Is there any way to get this information from the command line?

Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

Try:

 adb shell cat /proc/uptime 

Answer 2

If you only need precision, adb shell uptime will also work. Output Example:

 up time: 00:09:26, idle time: 00:07:15, sleep time: 00:00:00
