Keyboard-auto-typer

Summary

The Keyboard Auto Typer project is a Go-based server that utilizes code from the "send-keys" project to programmatically generate and send keyboard events. These events simulate human-like typing behavior, enabling the server to automate the input of text as if a person were physically typing on the keyboard.

Features

• HTTP Server: The project creates an HTTP server in Go, capable of receiving POST requests.

• Keyboard Simulation: Upon receiving a POST request, the server leverages the send-keys code to simulate keyboard events, effectively typing out the specified text.

• Customizable: Users can define the text to be typed and, if needed, customize the typing speed or intervals between keypresses.

• Automation: This tool is ideal for automating repetitive data entry tasks, form filling, or any application where simulated keyboard input is required.

Getting Started

• Clone the project repository to your local machine.
• Ensure you have Go installed.
• Start the Go server using go run main.go.
• Make a POST request to the server with the text you want to simulate typing.

Usage

To use the Keyboard Auto Typer, follow these steps:

1. Start the server using go run main.go.

2. Send a POST request to the server's endpoint at http://localhost:51212/send. The request body should contain a JSON schema with the following fields:

   • text (array of strings): An array of strings that represents the text you want to simulate typing.

   • startAfter (time in milliseconds): An optional delay, in milliseconds, before typing begins. This allows you to wait for a specific event or condition before initiating the typing simulation.

   • delay (time in milliseconds): The time interval, in milliseconds, between keypresses. This controls the typing speed.

Here's an example of a JSON schema:

{
    "text": ["Hello, World!", "This is a test."],
    "startAfter": 3000,
    "delay": 10
}

Using curl in the command line:

curl -X POST -d '{
    "text": ["Hello, World!", "This is a test."],
    "startAfter": 3000,
    "delay": 10
}' http://localhost:51212/send

The server will receive the POST request, parse the JSON schema, and simulate the keyboard typing based on the provided parameters.
