Robotgo

<!----> <!-- --> <!----> <!-- --> <!-- -->

Golang Desktop Automation. Control the mouse, keyboard, bitmap and image, read the screen, process, Window Handle and global event listener.

RobotGo supports Mac, Windows, and Linux(X11); and robotgo supports arm64 and x86-amd64.

Binding:

ADB, packaging android adb API.

Robotn, binding JavaScript and other, support more language.

Requirements:

Now, Please make sure Golang, GCC is installed correctly before installing RobotGo.

ALL:

Golang

GCC

For Mac OS X:

Xcode Command Line Tools (And Privacy setting: #277 )

xcode-select --install

For Windows:

MinGW-w64 (Use recommended)

Or the other GCC (But you should compile the "libpng" with yourself when use the bitmap.)

For everything else:

GCC

X11 with the XTest extension (the Xtst library)


"Bitmap":

libpng (Just used by bitmap)

"Event":

xcb, xkb, libxkbcommon

"Clipboard":

xsel xclip

Ubuntu:

# gcc
sudo apt install gcc libc6-dev

# x11
sudo apt install libx11-dev xorg-dev libxtst-dev

# Bitmap
sudo apt install libpng++-dev

# Hook
sudo apt install xcb libxcb-xkb-dev x11-xkb-utils libx11-xcb-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev libxkbcommon-dev

# Clipboard
sudo apt install xsel xclip

Fedora:

sudo dnf install libXtst-devel 

# Bitmap
sudo dnf install libpng-devel

# Hook
sudo dnf install libxkbcommon-devel libxkbcommon-x11-devel xorg-x11-xkb-utils-devel

# Clipboard
sudo dnf install xsel xclip

Installation:

With Go module support (Go 1.11+), just import:

import "github.com/go-vgo/robotgo"

Otherwise, to install the robotgo package, run the command:

go get github.com/go-vgo/robotgo

png.h: No such file or directory? Please see issues/47.

Update:

go get -u github.com/go-vgo/robotgo

Note go1.10.x C file compilation cache problem, golang #24355. go mod vendor problem, golang #26366.

Examples:

Mouse

package main

import (
  "github.com/go-vgo/robotgo"
)

func main() {
  robotgo.MouseSleep = 100

  robotgo.ScrollMouse(10, "up")
  robotgo.ScrollMouse(20, "right")

  robotgo.Scroll(0, -10)
  robotgo.Scroll(100, 0)

  robotgo.MilliSleep(100)
  robotgo.ScrollSmooth(-10, 6)
  // robotgo.ScrollRelative(10, -100)

  robotgo.Move(10, 20)
  robotgo.MoveRelative(0, -10)
  robotgo.DragSmooth(10, 10)

  robotgo.Click("wheelRight")
  robotgo.Click("left", true)
  robotgo.MoveSmooth(100, 200, 1.0, 10.0)

  robotgo.Toggle("left")
  robotgo.Toggle("left", "up")
}

  robotgo.TypeStr("Hi, Seattle space needle, Golden gate bridge, One world trade center.")
  robotgo.TypeStr("Hi galaxy, hi stars, hi MT.Rainier, hi sea. こんにちは世界.")
  robotgo.Sleep(1)

  // ustr := uint32(robotgo.CharCodeAt("Test", 0))
  // robotgo.UnicodeType(ustr)

  robotgo.KeySleep = 100

CrossCompiling

Windows64 to windows32

SET CGO_ENABLED=1
SET GOARCH=386
go build main.go

Other to windows

Install Requirements (Ubuntu, Just used by bitmap.):

sudo apt install gcc-multilib
sudo apt install gcc-mingw-w64
# fix err: zlib.h: No such file or directory
sudo apt install libz-mingw-w64-dev

Build the binary:

GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 CGO_ENABLED=1 CC=x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc CXX=x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ go build -x ./

// CC=mingw-w64\x86_64-7.2.0-win32-seh-rt_v5-rev1\mingw64\bin\gcc.exe
// CXX=mingw-w64\x86_64-7.2.0-win32-seh-rt_v5-rev1\mingw64\bin\g++.exe
