adb wait-for-devices timeout/nonblocking?

Question

Is there a way to have a timeout when calling "adb wait-for-devices"?

Scenario:

adb reboot
adb wait-for-devices (timeout listed here - if possible)
**if times out: echo timed out**
**else**
adb root
adb wait-for-devices

Answer 1

In Bash,

timeout <time_in_seconds> adb wait-for-any-device

Ex: Below command waits for 40 seconds to scan for adb devices, and will return the exit code of the command, on success, or 124 on timeout, or exit code of command on command failure.

timeout 40 adb wait-for-any-device
