xdotool-Java

A Java library for accessing xdotool's libxdo.

From xdotool README:

Fake input from the mouse and keyboard very easily. Also supports window manager actions such as moving, activating, and other actions on windows.

This uses JNA to access the libxdo C functions.

Using xdotool-Java

libxdo install

libxdo is not packaged with this library and should be installed prior to using this library. Installing from the target linux distribution is the easiest. Most of the prominent distributions have xdotool packages. For example using Debian: apt-get install libxdo-dev.

Otherwise, libxdo can be built from source.

Library import

Gradle:

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation("io.github.kingpulse:xdotool-java:1.1")
    }

   <dependency>
     <groupId>io.github.kingpulse</groupId>
     <artifactId>xdotool-java</artifactId>
