How can i make a long click action with a duration parameter on Android?

First, what i will long_click is not hard key, it is a button or icon on the screen.

And i know how to do a normal long_click without duration parameter, the default duration is 1 second.
But i checked “appium.webdriver.common.touch_action.TouchAction.long_press(self, el=None, x=None, y=None, duration=1000)”, it is designed like this, see the code:

def long_press(self, el=None, x=None, y=None, duration=1000):

    self._add_action('longPress', self._get_opts(el, x, y))

    return self

Look, the parameter “duration=1000”, it is not be used in the function.
And i did experiment, whatever duration you passed in, the long_press action had no change.

So, brothers, how do you do 5 seconds long_click? Please help me.

Solved!
It seems Appium Python client issue, we need to modify two functions in “appium.webdriver.common.touch_action.TouchAction”

long_press(self, el=None, x=None, y=None, duration=1000)
and
_get_opts(self, element, x, y)

Modify them like this:

def long_press(self, el=None, x=None, y=None, duration=1000):
    self._add_action('longPress', self._get_opts(el, x, y, duration))
    return self

def _get_opts(self, element, x, y, duration = None):
    opts = {}
    if element is not None:
        opts['element'] = element.id
    # it makes no sense to have x but no y, or vice versa.
    if x is None or y is None:
        x, y = None, None
    opts['x'] = x
    opts['y'] = y
    if duration is not None:
        opts['duration'] = duration
    return opts
