Simple CLI autoclicker for linux

Works on both xorg and wayland by utilising uinput and evdev!

Running

Install

cargo install theclicker

To run TheClicker

Run theclicker

Select your input device.

If it is not a legacy device, for example: /dev/input/mouse{N} or /dev/input/mice, choose the binding for left and right by pressing then confirming. I recommend hold and grab mode.

Grab mode has been tested on KDE Plasma Wayland 6.2.5 and 6.5.4

You can use --help to see more information!

Build

If you don't have Rust installed you can install rust from rustup

You need to have the stable toolchain installed!

Then run: cargo build --release

The binary path will be: ./target/release/theclicker

Problems?

Crashes

Add your user to the input group, (may not work on all systems): sudo usermod -aG input $USER

Or try running as root:

Move the executable to /usr/local/bin: sudo install -o root -g root -m 0755 $(which theclicker) /usr/local/bin/

Execute: sudo theclicker
