# crystal-autogui
GUI Automation Functionality for Crystal by linking with X11 C bindings.
## Installation
1. Add the dependency to your `shard.yml`:
```yaml
dependencies:
crystal-autogui:
github: hrichharms/crystal-autogui
```
2. Run `shards install`
## Building C Object Files
Since crystal doesn't have native bindings to the required header files, crystal-autogui requires linked C code. In order to link the X11 api-interacting C code with the crystal code, the c source file must be compiled to object files as follows:
screen.c -> screen.o
`gcc -c screen.c -o screen.o -lX11`
mouse.c -> mouse.o
`gcc -c mouse.c -o mouse.o -lX11 -lXtst`
keyboard.c -> keyboard.o
`gcc -c keyboard.c -o keyboard.o -lX11 -lXtst`
## Contributing
1. Fork it ()
2. Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b my-new-feature`)
3. Commit your changes (`git commit -am 'Add some feature'`)
4. Push to the branch (`git push origin my-new-feature`)
5. Create a new Pull Request
## TODO List
- Automatic string writing
- Character to Key-code mapping for easier keyboard function use
- Mouse scrolling
- Pixel checking
