I'm trying to code a Discord bot, that when you type !start
it starts a process on my computer and when you type !stop
it stops the server, but here's the deal, when you type the command !stop
it doesn't write my code in a cmd but wherever your cursor is selected to write.
This is very complicated to explain but in summary I just want to know if there is a specific argument that can change which window is selected.
I'm a newbie to python, so please explain in detail.
I'm using pynput
to have the ability to have control of my keyboard to stop my server.
Here's the code, I just need to be able to execute this only in a cmd even if I'm in chrome.
import os
import time
from pynput.keyboard import Key,Controller
keyboard = Controller()
time.sleep(10)
keyboard.type("stop")
keyboard.press(Key.enter)
keyboard.release(Key.enter)
time.sleep(10)
keyboard.type("a")
time.sleep(10)
keyboard.type("exit")
keyboard.press(Key.enter)
keyboard.release(Key.enter)
If your operating system is Windows, you can use PyGetWindow to switch windows.
import pygetwindow as gw
print(gw.getAllTitles())
handle = gw.getWindowsWithTitle('Notepad')[0]
handle.activate()
handle.maximize()
