Mojave 10.14 support

[apximax]

It totally doesn't work on Mojave 10.14. I tried to build it (sudo make install), build process was successful, but the result was the same as when I just install cliclick using homebrew or downloading from the site.

When I try some command I see typical message (verbose mode), but nothing happens.

What exactly is the command(s) you have tried?

[apximax]

Tried to use next script:

#!/bin/bash

sleep 5

while [ : ]
do
  NUMBER=$[ ( $RANDOM % 5 ) + 0 ]
  sleep $NUMBER

  cliclick -m verbose kd:ctrl
  for i in `seq 1 $[ ( $RANDOM % 10 ) + 1 ]`
  do
    cliclick -m verbose kp:tab
  done
  cliclick -m verbose ku:ctrl

  for i in `seq 1 $[ ( $RANDOM % 5 ) + 0 ]`
  do
    cliclick -m verbose kp:page-up
  done

  for i in `seq 1 $[ ( $RANDOM % 5 ) + 0 ]`
  do
    cliclick -m verbose kp:page-down
  done

done

Output:

Also tried something like

cliclick -m verbose m:1370,70
cliclick -m verbose c:1370,70
etc

The script above had worked before I updated mac os from high sierra to mojave.

Maybe it will be helpful: When I faced this problem then I tried to find some similar tool. I didn't find anything that allows me emulate keyboard events. But I just tested MouseTools and it doesn't work for me too...

Unfortunately I have nobody else who could test these tools on mac os mojave.

@BlueM Sorry, my bad The cause was not in the cliclick utility

[klysdale]

Was there resolution to this case? I use cliclick as well and it doesn't respond at all now on Mojave. Just looking to see if there is a fix yet on Mojave. Thanks,

[BlueM]

If you have problems with cliclick on Mojave, make sure you have granted full disk access to Terminal (or iTerm) in the security section of the system preferences.

[klysdale]

Thanks. I have added Terminal to Full Disk Access but it didn't change anything. Terminal was restarted as well.

[BlueM]

I’m sorry, but then I have no idea. I haven’t experienced any misbehavior on Mojave myself, and a user who mailed me because cliclick appeared to do nothing was able to fix this by granting Full Disk Access. I don’t know of any other causes.

[apximax]

@klysdale For me now it works without full disk access to Terminal, I just granted Accessibility rights to Terminal and it is enough...

[klysdale]

@apximax, Thank you. Granting accessibility rights worked.

getting this message when trying to run test on a mac Catalina machine (10.15 beta)

Tried giving full drive access to terminal. Still getting the same message. Also cliclick option isn't visible in the access grant list.
