PyUserInput 0.1.2

A simple, cross-platform module for mouse and keyboard control

PyUserInput
===========

A module for cross-platform control of the mouse and keyboard in python that is
simple to use.

Mouse control should work well for most users on Windows, Mac, and X11 (most
linux) systems.

Keyboard control works on X11(linux) and Windows systems. Mac control is
partially complete.

Dependencies
------------

Depending on your platform, you will need the following python modules for
PyUserInput to function:

* Linux - Xlib
* Mac - Qwartz, AppKit
* Windows - pywin32, pyHook

How to get started
------------------

After installing PyUserInput, you should have pymouse and pykeyboard modules in
your python path. Let's make a mouse and keyboard object:

from pymouse import PyMouse
from pykeyboard import PyKeyboard

m = PyMouse()
k = PyKeyboard()

Here's an example of clicking the center of the screen and typing "Hello, World!":

x_dim, y_dim = m.screen(size)
m.click(x_dim/2, y_dim/2, 1)
k.type_string('Hello, World!')

I'll be working on a more complete documentation later, but most of the
functionality should be evident in the source.

I'd like to make a special note about using PyMouseEvent and PyKeyboardEvent.
These objects are a framework for listening for mouse and keyboard input; they
don't do anything besides listen until you subclass them. I'm still formalizing
PyKeyboardEvent, so here's an example of subclassing PyMouseEvent:

from pymouse import PyMouseEvent

def fibo():
a = 0
yield a
b = 1
yield b
while True:
a, b = b, a+b
yield b

class Clickonacci(PyMouseEvent):
def __init__(self):
PyMouseEvent.__init__(self)
self.fibo = fibo()

def click(self, x, y, button, press):
'''Print Fibonacci numbers when the left click is pressed.'''
if button == 1:
if press:
print(self.fibo.next())
else: # Exit if any other mouse button used
self.stop()

C = Clickonacci()
C.run()
