ktmm (Keep That Mouse Moving!)

Thanks to Andrew Odendaal

Use pyenv and pyenv-virtualenv (my method of running this tool)

1. Prepare the env

   • macOS

   brew install pyenv-virtualenv

   • Linux

   gh repo clone pyenv/pyenv ~/.pyenv
   gh repo clone pyenv/pyenv-virtualenv ~/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv

2. Add below to your ~/.zprofile or ~/.bash_profile:

   # pyenv
   export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"
   export PATH=$PYENV_ROOT/shims:$PATH
   eval "$(pyenv init -)"
   eval "$(pyenv virtualenv-init -)"

3. Install virtualenv

   pyenv install 3.12.2 # if you don't know the exact version, use TAB to show the hints
   pyenv virtualenv 3.12.2 ktmm

   If you want to download the Python package by using another mirror site instead of the official ftp site, here is the solution:

   mkdir -p ~/.pyenv/cache
   export v=x.y.z; wget https://repo.huaweicloud.com/python/$v/Python-$v.tar.xz -P ~/.pyenv/cache/; pyenv install $v

   You shall also use the script provided by this repo, with the following:

   sudo mv -v `pwd`/pyenv-install /usr/local/bin

4. Final preparation

   # git clone https://github.com/kalabsha/ktmm.git ~/Code/ktmm
   gh repo clone kalabsha/ktmm ~/Code/ktmm
   cd ~/Code/ktmm
   penv shell ktmm
   python -m pip install -U pip -i https://pypi.douban.com/simple
   pip install -r requirements.txt -i https://pypi.douban.com/simple

   Update: I forgot something when migrate this script to macOS, now try pip install -r requirements.macOS.txt instead. But usually, try to run python ktmm.py first, you might want to install the packages needed only and let pip do the rest. Here in this case, it is pynput.

5. Make the command alias, Run ktmm thereafter.

   alias ktmm="cd ~/Code/ktmm && pyenv shell ktmm && python ktmm.py"
