PyUserInput is a Python library for cross-platform control of the mouse and keyboard, providing simple modules (pymouse, pykeyboard) for clicking, scrolling, typing, and sending key combinations on Windows, Mac, and X11/Linux. It also includes frameworks for listening to mouse and keyboard events via subclassable PyMouseEvent and PyKeyboardEvent classes.
Use cases
- automate mouse clicks and keyboard typing in python
- simulate key presses and shortcuts like Alt+Tab or Win+D
- write scripts that move the mouse and click screen coordinates
- listen for and react to global mouse and keyboard events
- build simple GUI automation or testing scripts in python
When to choose
- you need a lightweight, simple-to-install python library for mouse and keyboard control
- you need cross-platform input automation on Windows, Linux/X11, and Mac
- you want to programmatically send keystrokes, special keys, and key combos
- you need a minimal framework for listening to input events
When to avoid
- you need active development or recent bug fixes - development moved to the PyUserInput organization repo
- you need robust Mac keyboard support, which is still a work in progress
- you need pixel-accurate image-based GUI automation or OCR-driven interaction
- you need consistent key naming across platforms without reading platform-specific source
