How to use new mobile commands with tap and scroll?

Hi,

How to use newly provided mobile commands with tap and scroll?
Commands are found here.
But I dont know how to use them with java.

https://github.com/appium/appium/blob/master/docs/en/writing-running-appium/ios-xctest-mobile-gestures.md

I have used scroll,

//Swipe and load content
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
HashMap<String, String> scrollObject = new HashMap<String, String>();
scrollObject.put("direction", "left");
//scrollObject.put("element", ((RemoteWebElement)).getId());
js.executeScript("mobile: swipe", scrollObject);

And for scroll,

driver.executeScript("mobile", "scroll", "direction" , "down");

With tap also,

HashMap<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
 params.put("X", 200);
 params.put("Y", 200);
 driver.executeScript("mobile: tap", params);
2 
    public boolean tapElement_XCTest(MobileElement el) {
        try {
            // tap into center of element
            JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
            HashMap<String, String> tapObject = new HashMap<String, String>();
            tapObject.put("x", String.valueOf(el.getSize().getWidth() / 2));
            tapObject.put("y", String.valueOf(el.getSize().getHeight() / 2));
            tapObject.put("element", el.getId());
            js.executeScript("mobile:tap", tapObject);
            return true;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            return false;
        }
    }

    public boolean swipeToDirection_iOS_XCTest(MobileElement el, String direction) {
        try {
            JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
            HashMap<String, String> swipeObject = new HashMap<String, String>();
            if (direction.equals("d")) {
                swipeObject.put("direction", "down");
            } else if (direction.equals("u")) {
                swipeObject.put("direction", "up");
            } else if (direction.equals("l")) {
                swipeObject.put("direction", "left");
            } else if (direction.equals("r")) {
                swipeObject.put("direction", "right");
            }
            scrollObject.put("element", el.getId());
            js.executeScript("mobile:swipe", swipeObject);
            return true;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            return false;
        }
    }

@Aleksei please clarify which location strategy do you use for MobileElement el on iOS 11 ?

why do you do action e.getId( ) ?

@VikramVI

  1. this is element. no matter how you find it. any strategy. In page object you just calling it as:
someEl = driver.findElement....
// or maybe your element was in annotation like:
@AndroidFindBy(className = "android.widget.TextView")
private AndroidElement someEl ;

tapElement_XCTest(someEl);
  1. with el.getId() is just required by “mobile:swipe”
