Record and execute actions

arexecute

Application to record actions on the computer and then execute them in a controlled way.

Recording

To record run the following line:

python -m arexecute example

In order to create a json file named example with the saved recording. The instructions for recording are the following:

(->) Denotes press first one key, then the next

Command	Action
Alt	Stop recording
W -> any number -> W	Add waiting time of seconds equal to the number
Caps Lock -> any string -> Caps Lock	Writes the string
Ctrl	Move mouse to current mouse position
Shift n times	Clicks n times in the last mouse position determined by Ctrl
v	Adds a variable to be defined later

In this way, one can record mouse movements, clicks, writing variables, etc.

Executing

To execute, run the following line:

python -m arexecute example -e

This will execute the recorded example once. In order to run more than one time, add an integer after de -e flag. To run it indefinitely use the -r flag. In order for this command to work, a previous recording named example in the same directory (or in the one defined with the -d flag) must exist.

Using Variables

When recording, typing 'v' will add a new variable in place. In order to define this variable, you can go to the json file, 'variable' key and replace the "var_placeholder" strings for the variable itself. In order to use different variables for different iterations, replace the same strings by lists of variables.
