pathgenerator 0.1.1

Human-like mouse path generation using PD control

Path Generator

A Python library for generating human-like mouse paths using PD (Proportional-Derivative) control.

Installation

Core Library

Install the core library (only requires numpy):

pip install pathgenerator

With Windows Emulator

Install with pywin32 for high-performance cursor emulation (Windows only):

pip install pathgenerator[windows]

With Server

Install with the optional FastAPI server:

pip install pathgenerator[server]

Usage

Human Motion Parameters

• mouse_velocity: Base movement velocity (unitless, 0.1-1.0).
• kp_start/kp_end: PD controller correction strength.

Generating Paths

from pathgenerator import PDPathGenerator

gen = PDPathGenerator()
path, progress, steps, params = gen.generate_path(
    start_x=100.0, start_y=100.0,
    end_x=1800.0, end_y=900.0,
    mouse_velocity=0.65,
    noise=2.6,
    offset_x=0, offset_y=0  # Optional viewport offset
)

Executing Paths (Windows Only)

Use the PathEmulator to execute paths using win32api.

from pathgenerator import PDPathGenerator, PathEmulator

# Initialize emulator (requires pip install pathgenerator[windows])
emulator = PathEmulator()

# Get current mouse position
start_x, start_y = emulator.get_position()

gen = PDPathGenerator()
path, *_ = gen.generate_path(start_x, start_y, 500, 500)

# Execute path
emulator.execute_path(path, delay_between_points=0.01)

Server

To run the playground server:

python -m pathgenerator.server
