Project description
AFK-Bot🤖: A bot for the away from keyboard times
🧠 Philosophy
We strongly believe that all developers should have full access to their resources (i.e. sudo
access or permission to deactivate screens saver, ...). afk-bot
🤖 is a simple bot that moves the mouse cursor (every 1 second by default and it can be customized); so, your status never goes Idle
and your screen never gets locked 😂 ...
🛠 Installation
To begin with, you need to have a Python version >=3.8 installed and to install the library from PyPI simply run 🏃♀️ :
$ pip install afk-bot
📌 Quick Start
afk-bot
is a command-line
based bot and you can simply run it in any terminal
🏃♀️ :
$ afk-bot <- runs the bot and the mouse cursor moves every 1 second by default
$ afk-bot -t <interval-range> <- you can customize the interval with -t or --time
$ afk-bot --help <- shows the options
To exit
, simply press CTRL+C
keys.
📣 Common Issues
- Mac users should note that the accessibility to
Apple Events Server (AEServer)
should be turned on. Simply follow the steps 🏃♀️ :System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Choose Privacy Tab > Select Accessibility from Left Pane > Enable AEServer
- Some Linux users might need to export the environment variable
DISPLAY
. Simply run 🏃♀️ :$ export DISPLAY=:0
