I wanted to make a script which can move my cursor to a certain point on the screen and click or type something. Is there any way to do that with node.js?
I am aware that I can do that with c using <Windows.h>
or <WinUser.h>
headers. But I prefer using JavaScript so I was wondering is there any way to do that?
CodePudding user response:
you can use with Node.js is the robotjs library. This library provides a simple, cross-platform way to control the mouse and keyboard using JavaScript.
npm install robotjs
Here is an example from its website:
// Move the mouse across the screen as a sine wave.
var robot = require("robotjs");
// Speed up the mouse.
robot.setMouseDelay(2);
var twoPI = Math.PI * 2.0;
var screenSize = robot.getScreenSize();
var height = (screenSize.height / 2) - 10;
var width = screenSize.width;
for (var x = 0; x < width; x )
{
y = height * Math.sin((twoPI * x) / width) height;
robot.moveMouse(x, y);
}
Keyboard
// Type "Hello World" then press enter.
var robot = require("robotjs");
// Type "Hello World".
robot.typeString("Hello World");
// Press enter.
robot.keyTap("enter");
Screen
// Get pixel color under the mouse.
var robot = require("robotjs");
// Get mouse position.
var mouse = robot.getMousePos();
// Get pixel color in hex format.
var hex = robot.getPixelColor(mouse.x, mouse.y);
console.log("#" hex " at x:" mouse.x " y:" mouse.y);
For more details you can go with its documentation.
